Jonesborough: Historic Homes, Growing Neighborhoods, One Standard of Work
Jonesborough is unlike anywhere else in the Tri-Cities. As Tennessee's oldest town, it has a Main Street historic district that draws visitors and a population of homeowners who genuinely care about the character of their properties. The homes closest to the historic core — some dating to the early 1800s, many from the late 19th and early 20th centuries — are extraordinary structures with their own preservation considerations.
For these homes, we approach every project with the attitude that we are guests in someone else's legacy. Original wide-plank floors, beaded board ceilings, hand-mortised trim profiles — we document what we find, match what we can, and never cut corners to save time. When your bathroom involves plaster walls from 1910, you need a contractor who knows how to work around them without destroying them.
But Jonesborough is also growing. The residential areas spreading out from the historic core — particularly along the Highway 11E corridor and into the surrounding Washington County countryside — have a newer housing stock of 80s, 90s, and 2000s-built homes. Buyers here often purchased for the community character and now want to bring their homes up to the standard of the town itself. These are some of our most rewarding projects.

Jonesborough Homeowner FAQ
Jonesborough has very strict historic district rules — does that affect interior remodeling?
The historic district rules in Jonesborough primarily govern exterior changes — facades, windows, doors, rooflines. Interior remodeling (kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, trim) is generally not subject to the same review process. We're familiar with the local landscape and can walk you through what applies to your specific property.
We have an older farmhouse outside Jonesborough proper — do you handle rural properties?
Yes. Many of the homes we love most are farmhouses and rural properties in Washington County. These projects often involve older construction challenges — crawl spaces, original plumbing, uneven floors — that we've seen many times. We scope these carefully and quote them honestly.
