Home Services in Lincolnton and Lincoln County, Georgia

Lincoln County calls itself the heart of the Clarks Hill area: 413 miles of Lake Thurmond shoreline wrap the county, and its growth since the 1970s has come from Augusta-area families, retirees and water sports. Lincolnton is the seat; Pointe Shores, Eagle Pointe, Savannah Bay and Fishing Creek are the lake subdivisions where much of the work is.

Lincoln County facts

What Home Service Pros work with in Lincoln County.

  • The houses. Lincoln County has about 4,487 homes and 7,773 people; 79.1% of homes are owner occupied, the median home is worth $163,600, and the typical one was built around 1984 (U.S. Census ACS 2019 to 2023). In Lincolnton itself: about 758 homes, typical year built 1976, median value $212,600.
  • Permits. The Lincoln County Board of Commissioners (706-359-4729), 210 Humphrey Street, Lincolnton. The county does not publish a separate building office online. The county health department issues septic permits, the county has had a soil erosion control ordinance since 1988, and about a dozen subdivisions have water and sewer in place; call the commissioners’ office to confirm who issues a building or trade permit for your address.
  • Utilities. Water and sewer from the Lincoln County water system, which buys from the City of Lincolnton’s plant on Lake Thurmond and runs six county wells; most rural lots are on septic.
  • The ground. Southern Piedmont: thin, well-drained red soil, a sandy loam surface over sandy clay to clay subsoil, which the county’s own plan rates fair to good for foundations and fair to poor for septic. Floodplains ring Clarks Hill Lake.
  • Storms. Hurricane Helene, September 26 and 27, 2024: the National Weather Service estimated Lincoln County gusts at 80 to 100 mph and counted 16 homes destroyed and 191 damaged, with widespread trees and power lines down and large sections of the county without power.
  • Termites. The federal termite infestation probability map puts all of Georgia and South Carolina in its "very heavy" zone, the highest level, which is why lenders here ask for a termite letter.
  • Towns and areas. Lincolnton, Lovelace, Goshen, Iveytown, Leathersville, Midway, Pointe Shores, Eagle Pointe, Savannah Bay, Fishing Creek, the Old Petersburg Road area, Black Jack.
  • Landmarks. Clarks Hill Lake, Elijah Clark State Park, the Lincoln County Courthouse on the National Register, and the Chennault House.
