Paulding County has added 22,366 people since 2020 — the 9th largest numeric gain of Georgia’s 159 counties, and the 11th largest by percentage. In July 2025 the county paused new residential rezoning applications while it replaced a development code written in 1999. Dallas is the county seat, 27 miles from Bremen on the back roads, and most of what we do there is houses.
Who we build for in Dallas
The largest employers in Paulding County are Chick-fil-A, Costco, GreyStone Power, HES Facilities, Publix, Target, Kroger, Walmart and Wellstar. Read that list again — it is retail and service almost the whole way down. That is not a knock on the county, it is a description of one: people live in Paulding and work somewhere else. In a place like that, the building that matters most to somebody is the house, and the network problem that matters most is the one waiting for them when they get home.
Paulding is where the new construction is, and a house being built now is the one chance anybody gets to put cable in the walls for what the equipment will cost to work around later.
A county adding twenty-two thousand people in five years fills rooms that were sized for the county before it. A sanctuary at capacity is a density problem, and density behaves nothing like coverage.
A retail and service county seat means small commercial buildings by the hundred — some of them a block from an 1892 courthouse, some of them built last year off US-278.
On the ground
Dallas is about 40 minutes from the shop in Bremen — Paulding County. Buildings here have their own habits, and knowing them is most of what separates a quote from a guess.
Start a projectPaulding was up 18.5 percent between 2010 and 2020 and another 13.2 percent since, reaching 190,996 people. That is 11th of Georgia’s 159 counties by rate and 9th by sheer numbers, and the Atlanta Regional Commission’s forecast has it growing another 60 percent by 2050 — the fastest of any county in that forecast. In July 2025 the county adopted a six-month pause on new residential rezoning applications, mostly subdivisions, while it replaced a development code dating from 1999 with a new Unified Development Ordinance. Whether that pause is still on the books is a question for the county, not for us. The point is what it says: a place growing fast enough that it had to stop and rewrite the rules.
Dallas is 27 miles from Bremen and about 40 minutes, but not one of those miles is I-20. The run is up Buchanan Highway, and in town it is US-278, SR-6, SR-61, SR-120 and SR-360 doing the work an interstate does elsewhere. That makes Dallas a planned day rather than a drop-in. We say so plainly because the alternative is quoting a drive time that assumes a road which does not exist, and then being late.
The 1892 Paulding County Courthouse is Queen Anne, designed by Bruce & Morgan, and has been on the National Register since September 1980. The same architects drew the Haralson County courthouse in Buchanan in 1891–92, twenty-odd miles from where our van starts. Two county seats, one drawing board. It is a nice coincidence, but it is also a practical warning: the old core of Dallas is that vintage of masonry, and thick walls with no pathways in them are a different job from anything built after 1995.
The census puts the median home value inside the Dallas city limits at $251,800, though with a margin of error of nearly forty thousand dollars either way. Paulding County’s median is $326,300. Both numbers are honest and they are measuring different things: an older, smaller town center sitting inside a much newer, larger county of subdivisions. Which one you are standing in decides the job. One is retrofit through plaster and block, the other is a conduit run in a house whose drywall is not up yet.
FCC data from December 2025 has Comcast covering 99.2 percent of Paulding locations with Charter/Spectrum absent entirely — the mirror image of Bremen and Temple, which are effectively all Spectrum. Then there is GreyStone Connect, whose Phase 4 in February 2026 targets Paulding along Highway 61 and 278 with a new fiber hut in Hiram and around 350 miles of fiber planned for the year. A building here may get a genuine fiber option part-way through owning the network we build. That is a reason to specify a gateway that can still use the circuit when it arrives.
The county owns Paulding Northwest Atlanta Airport on Airport Parkway, the first jet-capable airport built in Georgia in more than thirty years. Chattahoochee Technical College runs an 86,000 square foot campus on Nathan Dean Boulevard, part of the largest technical college in the state. Automann opened a 367,000 square foot south-eastern headquarters here in 2025, $60 million and 150 jobs. The Silver Comet Trail runs 61.5 miles straight through the middle of the county. Institutional slab, industrial steel, old masonry and new stick framing — four kinds of building, four different answers to where a cable can go.
Every job, same order
Whether the building is in Dallas or five miles the other side of Bremen, the sequence does not change. What changes is what we find when we walk it.

Common questions
What people in Paulding actually ask before they call.
Call (770) 828-574827 miles and about 40 minutes, up Buchanan Highway. There is no interstate on that run, so it is a genuine back-roads drive rather than a hop down I-20. In practice that means Dallas gets scheduled as a planned day instead of a same-hour call-out, and we would rather tell you that in advance than after.
Before the drywall goes up, and ideally before the framing is closed in. Paulding has been one of the fastest-growing counties in Georgia since 2020, so a lot of what we see there is new construction, and the pre-wire window is short. Once the walls are closed, the same cable costs a great deal more to install and looks worse when it is done.
Comcast, almost everywhere. FCC data from December 2025 has it at 99.2 percent of Paulding locations, with Spectrum absent entirely — the opposite of what we see around Bremen. GreyStone Connect is also building fiber through Paulding along Highway 61 and 278. We design so the equipment inside is not the reason you cannot use whatever circuit you end up on.
Building size, construction type, and how much usable cable is already in the walls. An older masonry building near the courthouse square and a new house out off US-278 are different jobs before anybody turns anything on. We do not price from a phone call — the free assessment comes first, then a written quote against what we actually found.
