Custom Home Builders in Tennessee National

We have tailored our custom construction and renovation services to meet the precise needs of anyone looking to maximize their lifestyle in this 1,450 acre resort community.

• You Want to Buy Land and Build a Custom Home
  ‍If you are dreaming of a modern farmhouse overlooking the Greg Norman Signature Golf Course or a sprawling lakeside retreat on Watts Bar Lake, we are your first call. We highly recommend partnering with us before you ever purchase a lot. We walk potential properties with you, providing expert, boots on the ground evaluations of the topography, necessary grading, and build ability. We help you avoid lots with hidden developmental costs, ensuring your budget goes into your home, rather than just the dirt beneath it.‍
• You Are Relocating from Out of State
  ‍A significant portion of our clients manage their builds from afar. If you are moving to East Tennessee, you need a builder you can implicitly trust when you cannot be on site. Through our advanced client portals and our famous weekly drone updates, we keep you intimately connected to your project. You will always know the exact financial health and physical progress of your home, regardless of your current zip code.

To rank as the premier builder in this specific community, general construction knowledge is simply not enough. We approach every single new build and renovation in Tennessee National from a set of foundational first principles based on the realities of the land and the local guidelines.

• ‍Mastering the East Tennessee Topography
  ‍The rolling terrain of Tennessee National is breathtaking, but it presents strict engineering challenges. Building on ridgelines, steep wooded slopes, or lakefront elevations requires precision. We begin every project from the ground up with comprehensive topographical surveys, rigorous soil testing, and drone flights. Your foundation is engineered specifically for your exact parcel. By respecting the natural topography from day one, we maximize your panoramic views while aggressively mitigating costly excavation surprises.
• Navigating Architectural Harmony and HOA Compliance
  Tennessee National maintains rigorous Architectural Review Board guidelines designed to preserve the community's upscale aesthetic. Compliance is an absolute necessity for both new constructions and exterior renovations. Because we have an extensive, multi year history of successful builds within this neighborhood, we deeply understand the HOA's vision. We pair you with specialized architectural partners who know how to navigate these community guidelines flawlessly. We handle all the administrative heavy lifting, ensuring your custom design or renovation plan sails through the approval process without frustrating delays.
• Optimizing Solar Orientation and Climate Resilience
  In East Tennessee, the positioning of your home dictates your daily comfort and your long term energy efficiency. The intense summer sun on the lakefront and the varying wind patterns coming off the river require careful architectural planning. We analyze the solar orientation of your lot or existing home. This crucial data dictates strategic window placement, the ideal depth of your covered porches, and the precise zoning of your HVAC systems. We ensure your outdoor living spaces are perfectly shaded during a hot July afternoon, while your breakfast nook captures the ideal morning light.

You are choosing Tennessee National for the unparalleled resort lifestyle. Therefore, your custom home or newly renovated space must function as a seamless extension of that lifestyle.

• ‍The Lakefront Paradigm
  ‍For homes situated along Watts Bar Lake, moisture control and material durability are paramount. We utilize advanced weather resistive barriers, marine grade exterior hardware, and premium composite decking materials designed specifically to withstand proximity to the water. We love designing custom lower level walkouts that provide direct access to the marina. We frequently incorporate dedicated mudrooms engineered specifically to handle wet boating gear, life jackets, and lake towels before they ever reach your main living spaces.
• The Golf Course Sanctuary
  Homes built or renovated along the championship golf course require a delicate balance. We must maximize your panoramic views of the fairway while maintaining your absolute privacy from passing golfers. We achieve this through strategic landscaping, elevated main level living spaces, and specialized window glazing. A dedicated, fully conditioned golf cart garage with direct path access is a signature feature we highly recommend. This ensures your clubs are always ready for an early tee time.
• The Ultimate Entertainer’s Space
  If you love hosting friends and family, your home should be the ultimate gathering place. We design bespoke indoor and outdoor living spaces where massive glass doors fold completely away, entirely blurring the lines between your great room and your expansive covered lanai. Picture a high end outdoor kitchen equipped with commercial grade grills, a custom hidden scullery pantry to keep your main kitchen pristine during dinner parties, and soaring vaulted ceilings that provide a breathtaking sense of scale.

The traditional construction industry is unfortunately known for poor communication, hidden fees, and blown deadlines. At Biles Construction, we reject that standard. We limit our volume to crafting a select number of luxury projects per year to maintain impeccable quality control. Here is how our hyper transparent process works for you.

• Phase 1: Discovery and Expert Site Evaluation
  Before any contracts are signed, we sit down with you to deeply understand your lifestyle, your family's needs, and your budget. If you are looking to buy land, we will walk potential properties with you to evaluate build ability and clearing costs. If you are renovating, we conduct a thorough structural assessment of your current home to identify the best path forward for your vision.
• Phase 2: Architectural Collaboration and Full Selections
  Once your lot is secured or your renovation scope is defined, we transition into the creative design phase. We partner you with architects and interior designers who align perfectly with your aesthetic. During this phase, every single detail is selected. We guide you through choosing everything from the slope of the roof down to the cabinet hardware. By making all selections prior to breaking ground, we lock in your pricing, prevent mid build delays, and ensure a smooth construction phase.
• Phase 3: Pre Construction and Permitting
  With the blueprints finalized, our team takes on the administrative burden. We submit the full plans to the Tennessee National ARB, handle any necessary discussions with the board, and secure all required Loudon County building permits. Concurrently, we finalize your master construction schedule and immediately begin ordering long lead materials to protect your timeline.
• Phase 4: Active Construction and Radical Transparency
  ‍Throughout the construction phase, you are firmly in the driver's seat.
  • Your Client Portal: We utilize UDA Construction Online, providing you with a personalized, highly secure online portal. You can log in 24/7 to track your budget, view the live construction schedule, review our daily site logs, and effortlessly approve change orders.
  • The Friday Drone Update: Every single Friday, you will receive a comprehensive, high definition update featuring drone footage of your exterior progress and detailed interior photos. You will never have to wonder what happened on your site that week.
  • Our Trusted Trade Partners: Founder Bill Biles has meticulously curated a strictly vetted network of the finest artisans, framers, electricians, and finish carpenters in East Tennessee. We only employ craftsmen who share our obsessive dedication to flawless quality.
• Phase 5: The White Glove Handover
• As your custom build or renovation nears completion, we conduct multiple staged walkthroughs. We implement a rigorous internal punch list process, ensuring every paint line is crisp, every door swings perfectly, and every smart home system is perfectly calibrated. We provide a comprehensive orientation on how to operate your new home, and we back our work with an extensive legacy warranty.

A modern legacy home in Tennessee National must be exceptionally intelligent and highly resilient. We integrate cutting edge technology directly into the framework of your build or renovation from day one.

• Smart Home Ecosystems: We pre wire and install seamless security systems, multi zone climate control, automated architectural lighting, and whole home distributed audio. You have the power to control your home's entire environment securely from your smartphone.
• Energy Sustainability: We integrate high efficiency HVAC systems, top tier insulation packages including closed cell spray foam, and low E energy efficient windows tailored specifically to the regional climate. Your home will be exceptionally quiet, environmentally friendly, and incredibly cost effective to operate year round.
