Unlimited Licensed General Contractor for Commercial Builds

We build differently: clear scope, clear schedule, and one accountable team leading the work from preconstruction through inspections and closeout. With an unlimited license, we can take on complex commercial projects across Tennessee—without treating your job like an experiment.

THE ETC DIFFERENCE
Build Faster With Fewer Delays
When you rely on a rotating list of subs, you get rotating timelines. ETC reduces delays by using in-house trades where it matters most and coordinating the rest with disciplined scheduling. That means fewer stoppages, cleaner job sites, and a smoother experience for owners, developers, and decision-makers who need certainty—not surprises.
One team. One scope. One schedule.

5-STEP CONSTRUCTION PROCESS
How We Deliver Commercial Projects With Less Stress
Commercial construction needs tight sequencing. We run a repeatable process that protects schedule, cost, and quality.
Vision & Budget Alignment
We meet to understand your goals, land conditions, timeline, and budget.
Integrated Design & Engineering
Our in-house estimators and construction manager collaborate early, locking in layouts, finishes, and true costs before a shovel hits the ground.
Pre-Construction Logistics
Permits are pulled, land is cleared, materials are procured, and a milestone schedule is issued to eliminate surprises and idle days.
In-House Build & Quality Checks
One project manager handles all on site tradesmen, making sure your vision is presented accurately throughout the process.
Delivery, Walk-Through & Warranty
We complete a detailed punch-list together, hand you the keys, and activate your warranties.
Common custom home builds
Commercial Construction Services
Event Venues & Retail Centers
High-visibility commercial spaces built for flow, durability, and code compliance—ready for customers, tenants, and opening day.
Commercial Warehouses & Industrial Buildings
Large-span facilities designed for storage, equipment, and operational efficiency—ideal for racking, bays, and future expansion.
Commercial Utility Offices
Functional, efficient office + shop facilities with coordinated MEP and long-term maintainability.
Hotels & Lodging
Code-compliant hospitality construction built for schedule discipline, repeatable layouts, and durable finishes.
Church Buildings
Worship facilities and multi-use spaces designed for acoustics, comfort, and growth—without sacrificing build quality.
Commercial Steel Buildings (PEMB)
Pre-engineered metal buildings for big spans, heavy use, and flexibility—especially when speed and strength matter.
THE ETC DIFFERENCE
In-House Steel Fabrication and Erection
Some projects demand steel: long spans, crane loads, heavy use, or high-clearance layouts. With in-house steel capability and commercial experience, we can recommend wood, hybrid, or PEMB based on ROI—not preference. If steel is the right answer, we can fabricate and erect with tighter control and fewer delays.

What areas do you serve for commercial construction?
We build statewide across Tennessee and selectively take out-of-state projects that fit our schedule and standards.
When is a steel (PEMB) building better than wood?
Steel is often best for long spans (60’+), crane loads, high-clearance needs, or harsh environments. We’ll recommend wood, hybrid, or PEMB based on ROI.
Can you work from our architect’s plans?
Yes. If you have plans, we can price and build from them—and flag constructability issues early to avoid change orders.
Do you offer design-build commercial construction?
Yes. We can coordinate permit-ready plans, engineering, and MEP planning to streamline the project.
How long does a typical commercial build take?
Most projects land in the 8–14 month range depending on size, permitting, and structural system. In-house trades and tighter sequencing reduce delays.
What impacts total commercial construction cost the most?
Footprint, structural system (wood/hybrid/PEMB), finish level, and site conditions drive most costs. We clarify scope early and lock a realistic budget before mobilization.
