"From custom new homes in the foothills of the Smokies to full remodels and additions across Blount County — Nathan and Orange Hat Home Builders bring 20+ years of building experience to every project, built better from the ground up."
Maryville sits in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains as the county seat of Blount County — a community that blends small-town warmth with steady, well-managed growth. Home to Maryville College and just a short drive from both downtown Knoxville and the entrance to the Smokies, Maryville and its neighbor Alcoa have become a magnet for families who want mountain views, good schools, and an easy commute to the wider Knoxville metro. 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 Maryville and all of Blount County from nearby Loudon.
From custom new homes on wooded lots with Smoky Mountain views to full kitchen and bath remodels, roofing, decks, flooring, and additions, Nathan brings quality craftsmanship to every Maryville project. His complete background is a genuine advantage: years in building supply, five years owning a home inspection business, and a real estate appraiser license he still holds mean he builds with an inspector's eye and an appraiser's understanding of value — knowing exactly where corners get cut and refusing to cut them. Maryville families get a builder who treats their home like his own.
Building near the foothills brings real considerations an experienced local builder understands. Maryville's sloped, wooded lots and clay soils call for careful site work, solid foundations, and smart drainage, while the area's proximity to the mountains means homes face heavy rain, humidity, and seasonal weather that put roofs, decks, and exteriors to the test. Blount County's mix of established in-town homes and newer foothill construction means each project needs a builder who understands what he's working with. As a Tennessee licensed and insured General Contractor (#83528) and member of the Home Builders Association of Greater Knoxville, Nathan handles every Maryville project personally, backed by a full one-year builder warranty. Call or text him at 865-585-6660 to get started.
