"From custom lakefront homes along Fort Loudoun and Tellico Lakes to remodels and additions across Loudon County — Nathan and Orange Hat Home Builders bring 20+ years of building experience to every project, built better from the ground up."
Lenoir City sits right on the water in Loudon County, where Fort Loudoun Lake and Tellico Lake meet near the headwaters of the Tennessee River. It's one of East Tennessee's most popular lake communities — home to waterfront neighborhoods, the upscale Tellico Village just across the water, and a steady stream of families and retirees drawn by the boating, the views, and the relaxed lakeside lifestyle. Orange Hat Home Builders — owned and operated by Nathan, a Tennessee licensed General Contractor (License #83528) with more than 20 years in the building industry — serves Lenoir City and all of Loudon County from right next door in Loudon.
Because Orange Hat is based in Loudon County, Lenoir City is truly home turf for Nathan — and he's built and remodeled throughout the area, including projects in nearby Tellico Village. From custom lakefront new construction to kitchen and bath remodels, roofing, decks built for taking in the water views, flooring, and additions, Nathan brings quality craftsmanship to every job. His complete background — years in building supply, five years owning a home inspection business, and a real estate appraiser license he still holds — means he builds with an inspector's eye and an appraiser's understanding of value, which matters a great deal on higher-end lake properties.
Lakeside building carries considerations that reward an experienced local builder. Waterfront and sloped lake lots demand careful site work, proper foundations, and drainage planning, and decks and exteriors near the water face constant exposure to moisture and weather. Lake-area properties also tend to represent significant investments, so quality workmanship is essential to protect their value. As a Tennessee licensed and insured General Contractor (#83528), a member of the Home Builders Association of Greater Knoxville, and a builder based right here in Loudon County, Nathan handles every Lenoir City project personally, backed by a full one-year builder warranty. Call or text him at 865-585-6660 to get started.
