Before the House, the Bridge
This is one of Brock Builders’ new projects in Tennessee, and the first challenge had nothing to do with the house itself.
The existing bridge needed to be replaced before construction equipment could begin moving in and out of the property. The new bridge is rated to handle the much heavier loads that will be crossing it throughout the project.
It’s one of those parts of custom home construction that most people never even think about.
Before excavation, framing, finishes, and all the things that eventually make a house look like a house, the property itself has to be ready for the work ahead.
On some sites, that can mean dealing with access, terrain, drainage, or, in this case, making sure there’s a bridge capable of carrying the equipment needed to build the home.
Brock Builders works throughout Western North Carolina and surrounding areas, including Eastern Tennessee, where the challenges of the property can become part of the job from day one.
