Commercial Contractor Serving South Atlanta: McDonough, Newnan, Fayette County & Beyond
If your business is located south of Atlanta — whether you're in College Park, Newnan, McDonough, or anywhere in between — you already know this stretch of Georgia is anything but sleepy. New distribution centers are going up along I-75. Downtown Newnan's commercial district is at full occupancy for the first time in years. And McDonough is in the early stages of one of the most ambitious mixed-use development projects in Henry County's history.
Growth like this creates opportunity. It also creates a very practical question: when it's time to renovate your space, build out a new location, or upgrade a facility, who do you call?
At Green Heart Enterprises, we've been answering that question for businesses across the south metro Atlanta area for years. Based in East Point and licensed throughout Georgia, we bring the full capabilities of an award-winning commercial general contractor directly to your market — without the overhead or indifference of a large out-of-town firm. Here's a look at the communities we serve and the kinds of projects we're built for.
Why South Atlanta Is One of Georgia's Most Active Construction Markets
The south metro has long punched above its weight when it comes to commercial activity. It sits at the intersection of two major forces: the southward expansion of Atlanta's urban core and the booming logistics and industrial corridor running along I-75 from Atlanta to Macon.
Henry County — home to McDonough — is one of the fastest-growing logistics and manufacturing hubs in the state. A proposed 70-acre mixed-use development at the McDonough Civic Complex, with retail, office, and residential components, signals serious long-term investment in the area's commercial core. Businesses across the county are expanding, upgrading, and building new — and they need a contractor who can keep up.
Coweta County, anchored by Newnan, tells a similar story. Hitachi Construction Machinery Americas opened a regional headquarters there. Winpak Films expanded its footprint. And downtown Newnan's Main Street district is reporting virtually zero commercial vacancies — a remarkable indicator of how much economic activity is flowing through the area.
Fayette County, home to Peachtree City and Tyrone, rounds out the picture with a well-established base of office parks, medical facilities, and retail centers that are steadily undergoing renovation and modernization.
For business owners in these communities, the construction demand is real. The challenge is finding a contractor who shows up, communicates well, and actually understands your local market.
South Metro Atlanta Communities We Serve
East Point & College Park — Our Home Base
Green Heart Enterprises is headquartered at 1401 Willingham Drive in East Point — right at the gateway to the south metro. College Park, just minutes away, is one of Atlanta's most active commercial corridors, anchored by Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport and the many businesses that support it. Our aviation construction experience, including work on Delta concourses, puts us in a unique position to serve the commercial ecosystem surrounding the airport.
Newnan & Coweta County
Newnan is experiencing a commercial renaissance. With a thriving downtown, major employers expanding their footprints, and a steady influx of new businesses attracted by the area's quality of life and affordability, demand for skilled commercial contractors is strong.
We serve Newnan and the broader Coweta County area with the full range of our services — from commercial renovation and tenant improvements to new construction and industrial builds. Whether you're refreshing a retail space on the square or building out a new office for a growing team, we bring the same professional approach we apply to every project.
McDonough & Henry County
McDonough is at an inflection point. Commercial development along SR-81, the Jonesboro Road corridor, and the proposed Civic Complex project are reshaping what's possible for business owners in Henry County. As the area attracts more investment, the need for experienced commercial contractors who can navigate local permitting, zoning, and construction requirements becomes critical.
We work with McDonough-area businesses across a range of project types — office build-outs, retail renovations, industrial tenant improvements, and more. If you're planning a project in Henry County, we'd welcome the conversation.
Fayette County & Peachtree City
Fayette County has a well-established commercial landscape with a strong emphasis on professional offices, medical facilities, and mixed-use retail. Many of the buildings in this market are aging into their first or second renovation cycle — which is exactly where a contractor like GHE adds the most value.
We understand how to work in occupied buildings, minimize disruption to tenants and customers, and deliver a finished product that positions your property competitively in a high-expectation market.
Other South Metro Communities
Our south metro service area also includes Jonesboro, Riverdale, Fairburn, Palmetto, Senoia, and surrounding communities. If your business is south of the city and you're planning a commercial project, chances are we can help.
What We Build for South Atlanta Businesses
Green Heart Enterprises is a full-service commercial general contractor. For south metro clients, our most common project types include:
- Commercial Renovation — Modernizing existing office, retail, or industrial spaces to meet current needs, codes, and brand standards.
- Tenant Improvements (TI) — Customizing leased commercial space for new or expanding tenants, from shell condition to move-in ready.
- New Commercial Construction — Ground-up builds for businesses ready to own or develop their own facility.
- Industrial & Warehouse Construction — Build-outs and improvements for distribution, manufacturing, and light industrial facilities — a growing need along the I-75 corridor.
- Construction Design Services — Early-stage design collaboration to make your project more buildable, more cost-effective, and easier to permit.
Not sure which category your project falls into? That's okay — reach out to us and we'll help you figure it out.
Why Working with a Local Contractor Matters
There's a meaningful difference between hiring a large Atlanta-based firm that treats your south metro project as a road job, and working with a contractor who is genuinely embedded in the regional market.
Local knowledge matters at every stage of a commercial project. It affects how quickly we can mobilize subcontractors. It shapes how we interpret local building codes and navigate permit offices in Coweta, Henry, and Fayette counties. And it shows up in the quality of the relationships we've built with the inspectors, engineers, and suppliers who make projects run smoothly.
As a female-owned, award-winning general contractor based in the south Atlanta metro, Green Heart Enterprises is here — not flying in. That proximity translates into faster response times, tighter schedules, and a level of personal accountability that larger firms often struggle to match.
Ready to Renovate? Start with Our Commercial Renovation Services
If your south metro Atlanta business is due for a refresh — whether it's a full interior renovation, an updated storefront, or a reconfigured floor plan — our Commercial Renovation services are a great starting point. We specialize in occupied-space renovations that keep your business running while the work gets done, with clear communication, phased scheduling, and a professional finish every time.
From a 1,500-square-foot retail space in Newnan to a multi-floor office renovation in McDonough, we scale our approach to fit the project — never the other way around.
