Bathroom, Kitchen and Window Remodeling Company in Old Hickory, Tennessee

Working in Old Hickory

The Village was built from 1918 as housing for the DuPont powder plant, and the historic district still contains hundreds of those original buildings in Colonial Revival, bungalow and vernacular styles. For us that means one thing above all: almost nothing in these houses is a standard size. Window openings in particular are frequently not what a catalogue expects, which is exactly why we measure every opening and document conditions rather than ordering to a nominal size. Interior layouts are also tighter than modern plans, so a tub-to-shower conversion here is often the single change that makes the room usable.

Permits and jurisdiction

Old Hickory is part of Metro Nashville, so permits run through Metro Codes. The Village carries a contextual overlay, which shapes what can be built or added rather than requiring a preservation permit for ordinary interior work. Before any exterior change here it is worth confirming what overlay your specific parcel sits in, because the rules are not uniform across the neighbourhood.

Requirements change, so treat this as orientation rather than a substitute for confirming with the local codes department for your specific parcel.
