Your Hixson General Contractor, Just Down the Road

Hixson is an unincorporated community in Hamilton County, sitting north of the Tennessee River from downtown Chattanooga along the shore of Chickamauga Lake. It is also where we work from: Garcia Martinez TrueCraft Builders LLC is at 6553 Cassie Ln, so a general contractor in Hixson here means a crew that lives a few minutes from your jobsite, not one driving in from across the county.

Highway 153 and Hixson Pike carry most of the traffic through the area, and most of the neighborhoods branch off them. Lots here range from established subdivisions to wooded parcels with a slope toward the lake or a creek. That shapes the work: driveways have to drain off a slope, decks sit in shade and trees, and a new build or an addition often starts with a conversation about grading.

Because Hixson is outside any city limits, permits for much of the work are handled through the county rather than a municipal office, which is worth knowing before you plan a deck, an addition or a garage.

What We Build Most in Hixson

Deck Construction

Shaded, tree-lined lots keep decks damp, so footings, framing and fastening matter more than decking color.

See the service

Concrete Driveways

Many Hixson lots slope toward the street or the lake, so driveway grade and drainage are planned before the pour.

See the service

Home Additions

Homes on larger Hixson lots have room to grow, and an addition is often more practical than moving.

Home Construction

Wooded parcels and cleared lots both get looked at for slope, access and utilities before a plan is priced.

Local Notes for Building in Hixson

Lakeside moisture and shadeThe lake and the tree cover keep many yards humid and shaded. Wood stays damp longer, so we favor details that shed water: flashing, spaced boards and rot-resistant framing.

Sloped and wooded lotsSlope toward the lake and the creeks changes foundation depth, driveway layout and where water goes during storms. We walk the lot before pricing.

County permittingHixson's unincorporated status generally means county-level permits and inspections for many projects. We plan around that process.

Main roadsHighway 153 and Hixson Pike make travel to most Hixson neighborhoods straightforward from our base on Cassie Ln.
