Old Hickory sits along the lake in eastern Davidson County with a mix of lakefront and established lots. The lake brings humidity and bugs, which is why low maintenance composite and screened porches are the right fit here. We design decks and porches that take advantage of the lake and the mature trees, with railings and heights that frame the view.
Local building notes for Old Hickory
Old Hickory lake lots can be sloped, which changes how a deck or porch sits on the yard. We design for the grade, with footings that hold and railings that meet code at the right height. A lake view deck has to frame the water, not block it.
Permits run through Metro Nashville Codes Administration, since Old Hickory is in Davidson County. We make sure the right permits are in place for every deck, porch, or cover that needs one and confirm with Metro Codes.
Lake humidity is real. Composite decking holds up without staining, and cedar weathers gracefully if you let it. We bring samples and talk through the trade-offs on your free estimate so you pick what fits your lot.
We confirm permit requirements with Metro Nashville Codes Administration on every job.
