Our work in Grainger County
Building homes around Cherokee Lake
Lake lots around Bean Station offer views and outdoor living, but they often come with elevated slopes, runoff channels and rocky subsoil. Homes near the water also see higher humidity, which is why we pay close attention to treated framing lumber, moisture barriers and ventilation.
Shoreline work such as docks, shoreline stabilization and grading at the water's edge falls under the Tennessee Valley Authority's Section 26a permit, which is separate from the county building permit and can take months. Plan for it early. Read more in our journal post on building near Cherokee Lake.
Pole barns for Grainger County farms and acreage
Between Clinch Mountain and Cherokee Lake, Grainger County is rolling farmland, ridges and wooded acreage. The buildings people here ask for are working buildings: hay and equipment barns, horse barns and run-in sheds, workshops, and wide-door storage for tractors, trailers and boats.
Rain and clay-heavy soil are the local challenge. Water that sheets off a hillside or pools on clay will find its way under a building, so we plan the pad, the grade around it and where the roof water goes before construction starts.
Permits in Grainger County
Grainger County building codes apply to new structures and structural modifications, including additions. Agricultural buildings can be treated differently from shops and garages, so check what applies to your property before you finalize a plan. Because this is our home county, scheduling site visits and walk-throughs is straightforward. We also take framing subcontract work for builders around Bean Station and Rutledge.

Grainger County questions
Is Bunch Construction Co. based in Grainger County?
Yes. We're at 2132 Meadow Branch Rd, Bean Station, TN 37708, and Grainger County, including Bean Station, Rutledge, Washburn and Blaine, is our home service area.
Do you build near Cherokee Lake?
Yes. We build homes and outbuildings in the Cherokee Lake area. Lake lots often need extra planning for slope, drainage and foundations, and any shoreline work needs a separate TVA Section 26a permit.
Can a pole barn go on a sloped or clay-soil site?
Often, yes, with the right site preparation. We plan the pad, grading and drainage before construction so water moves away from the building. Tell us about the site on the quote form.
