Local coverage
Project conversations across Williamson County and the Franklin service area.
Which of these communities we can match you in depends on provider availability across plumbing, HVAC, foundation, water damage, mold, and gutter work. Each city below gets its own notes on housing stock and site conditions.
Brentwood
Brentwood's history reaches back to Mississippian-era inhabitants and, later, Revolutionary War-era settlers including the Sneed, Moore, and Crockett families; after the Civil War devastated the area's plantation economy, those estates gradually turned into working farms and, over the twentieth century, into some of Middle Tennessee's most valuable equestrian and residential real estate.
See the local notes →Spring Hill
Spring Hill was the site of the Battle of Spring Hill on November 29, 1864, the night before the much larger Battle of Franklin, when Confederate General John Bell Hood's army failed to cut off the retreating Union column on its way north -- a missed opportunity historians still debate. More than a century later, General Motors' 1985 announcement of the Saturn plant, which began production in 1990, transformed what had been a small agricultural town into one of Middle Tennessee's fastest-growing cities.
See the local notes →Nolensville
Nolensville was established in 1797 by Revolutionary War veteran William Nolen, according to local tradition after a wagon wheel broke while his family was passing through the area -- one of the older settlement stories in what is now Williamson County.
See the local notes →Thompson's Station
Thompson's Station was founded in 1866 with the arrival of the railroad and named for Dr. Elijah Thompson; the area is also the site of the March 1863 Battle of Thompson's Station, a Confederate cavalry victory under Nathan Bedford Forrest and Earl Van Dorn. The town did not formally incorporate until 1990.
See the local notes →Fairview
Fairview sits on the rural western edge of Williamson County and, according to local history, was once known informally as the moonshine capital of Middle Tennessee -- a reflection of its more remote, less-developed character compared to the county's affluent eastern suburbs.
See the local notes →Leiper's Fork
Leiper's Fork was known as Hillsboro until a post office established in 1818 gave the village its current name, and its well-preserved nineteenth-century commercial core earned it a spot on the National Register of Historic Places as an official historic district in 1988.
See the local notes →College Grove
College Grove was known first as Harpeth, then as Poplar Grove, before taking its current name in 1860 when a post office was established -- one of several small Williamson County communities whose modern name postdates its original settlement by decades.
