Meet the Team Behind East Tennessee Contractors

At East Tennessee Contractors, building isn’t just our business—it’s our craft, our legacy, and our way of life. From the first draft to the final walkthrough, every home and commercial project we build reflects the care, experience, and precision of the people behind it.

Our team combines decades of construction expertise with a shared commitment to quality, integrity, and craftsmanship that stands the test of time. Whether it’s a custom home in the hills of Tennessee or a large-scale commercial steel project, we approach each build like it’s our own—because our name is on it.

Fueled by Faith, Passion, and Purpose
