Ooltewah
A lot of new houses, and more on the way.
Most of Ooltewah was built in the last 25 years or so, and it hasn't stopped. Drive Hunter Road or Ooltewah-Georgetown and there's another subdivision going in.
That makes for two kinds of work. New houses need punch lists finished after the builder's crews move on. And the houses from the early 2000s are old enough now that the original fixtures, caulk, and trim are wearing out.
There are plenty of rentals out here too, with the Volkswagen plant down the road and Southern Adventist University next door in Collegedale.
Areas we cover around Ooltewah
New houses
Bought a new house out here?
New houses settle in over the first year or two. These are the things that show up, and they're all easy fixes.
Nail pops and hairline cracks
As the framing dries out, drywall screws push through and small cracks open at the corners. It looks worse than it is. A patch and some paint takes care of it.
Caulk that pulls away
Caulk shrinks in the first year, so gaps open up along trim, tubs, and countertops. Re-caulking keeps water out of places it shouldn’t be.
Doors that stop latching
A little settling is enough to throw a door off. It's usually a hinge or strike plate adjustment.
Make a list before the warranty runs out
Most builders cover the first year. Walk the house around month ten and write everything down. Whatever the builder won't come back for, we can handle.
