New construction contractor serving Acworth, GA. Ground-up custom homes, garages, and lake-area builds from a licensed Cobb County contractor based in Marietta.
Project Photos
Acworth sits at the quieter northwest corner of Cobb County, where lots run larger, trees run older, and a well-built house still gets noticed. Catalino Quality Construction does ground-up building here — custom homes, detached garages and workshops, and storage buildings — with owner Robert Catalino managing each project personally, as he has on Cobb County job sites for about 15 years.
Building Around the Lake and the Historic Core
New construction in Acworth splits between two kinds of sites. Near Lake Allatoona and the older streets around downtown, you're working with established surroundings: slopes, mature hardwoods, and neighbors whose homes have been there for generations. Out toward the Cherokee County line, parcels get bigger and the constraints get simpler, but grading and long utility runs take their place. We've built on both kinds of ground, and the first site walk is where we tell you which problems your lot has — and which ones it doesn't.
The build itself follows a disciplined sequence: site prep and erosion control, footings and foundation with inspections at each hold point, structural framing checked against the engineering, dry-in, licensed trade rough-ins, and finish work held to the standard in our project gallery.
Detached Structures Done Properly
A lake town generates its own storage needs. Boats, trailers, and shop equipment all want a real building — footings, slab, framed walls, and a roof that sheds Georgia weather — not a kit shed on skids. We build detached garages and workshops matched to your home's exterior or purpose-built for utility, and we handle the zoning check first so height limits and setbacks never surprise you mid-design.
Permits, Licensing, and Insurance
Our Residential Basic license, #RBCO008244, is on file with the Georgia Secretary of State, and we carry general liability and workers' compensation insurance. Permits and inspections — City of Acworth or Cobb County — are part of the service, not an extra.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you build near Lake Allatoona?
Yes. Lots near the lake are some of Acworth's best building opportunities, and some of its trickiest — slopes toward the water, mature hardwoods, and in some cases Corps of Engineers boundary lines that constrain where you can build. We flag those constraints during the initial site walk so the design starts from what the lot actually allows.
Which office permits new construction in Acworth?
Inside city limits, the City of Acworth handles permitting; Acworth-addressed lots in unincorporated northwest Cobb go through Cobb County. We determine which applies to your parcel and run the full permit and inspection sequence either way.
Does your license cover building a full custom home?
Yes — Georgia's Residential Basic Contractor class covers new detached one- and two-family homes and one-family townhouses up to three stories, which is exactly what a custom home is. The state's online license lookup will confirm ours in about a minute.
Can you build a detached garage or boat storage building?
We build detached garages, workshops, and storage buildings from footings up — including taller-door bays sized for boats, which get plenty of use in a lake town. Zoning setbacks and height limits vary by district, and we confirm them before design.
