Rain or Shine Homes, LLC, is where our remodeling expertise can help you realize your dreams. We specialize in remodeling homes, from a kitchen remodel, to basement, or an addition to your home. While we appreciate the craftsmanship and details that go into the older homes in the Nashville area, we also know that not everyone wants a one bathroom house with a run down, outdated kitchen. With the economy the way it is, it makes more sense to build onto your existing home, and we are here to help make your dreams come true. If you have bought a fixer upper we can do the complete renovation for you. we also build Custom Homes, Custom Cabinets, and Wine Cellars

"I can’t even say enough great things about this company. The owner and his crew were outstanding! Did such a great job on our garage addition. They were so patient and understanding. The owner (Frank) even came with me to the city appeal hearing. A+ communication. Reasonably priced. Would I recommend him to family? He IS family. I am so grateful I found him on Angi’s list and hired him for this project. I highly recommend him!"

With over 30 years of experience there is no project TriStar Building Services, Inc. can't handle. Customer service and attention to detail is what we strive for. We have been servicing the greater Nashville area for decades. We look forward to hearing from you.

"Chris and TriStar have worked on three projects in our home. Whenever we have a remodeling or accidental damage repair, they are our first option. When you have confidence in their workmanship and professionalism, why call someone else? Hopefully, we will not have anymore water damage in our house, but if we do, TriStar will be our first call. "

Founded by Decker Hughes and partnered by Kent Wardley, the two owners bring a hands-on approach to every project, big or small. Our team is known for integrity, craftsmanship, and genuine care for each client’s vision. We’ve proudly partnered on major builds with some of Tennessee’s top property management companies, and we bring that same level of excellence to every home renovation or repair. Guided by values and committed to doing things right the first time, we treat every project as if it were our own—building lasting relationships and results you can trust.

"Great experience with True North Developers. They did a gut renovation to my kitchen and adjoining laundry room and the results are stunning. Great quality materials and completed to my specifications. They also painted inside and outside, installed new tile to my foyer floor, and demolished my old deck in the back and rebuilt a beautiful new deck with new stairs and finished screened porch with electrical. We look forward to more projects with them as we bring this 1965 ranch into this century. They were very professional, and very easy to work with. They listened and made any adjustments needed. All their subs were top notch. They also cleaned up when they finished and sent a cleaning crew to finish the job. "

FAQs for custom home building projects in Franklin, TN

One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.

Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity. 

The average price per square foot to build a house is about $150 per square foot. Overall, the cost to build a house ranges anywhere from $100 to $500 per square foot, depending on where you build. The primary cost factors include location, size, and style of house you build.

The average cost to hire an architect for your home project ranges between $2,200 and $10,500. However, depending on location and project type, you might end up paying as little as $600 or as much as $45,000 or more. For example, the average cost of hiring an architect in North Carolina is between $1,800 and $2,000, but in California, that price tag jumps to $3,600 to $15,200

The price you pay for your architect also depends on their experience level. For example, a principal architect, the firm's owner, typically charges $150 to $250 per hour. However, an intern architect with three to five years of experience usually only charges $45 per hour. 

Knowing if you need an architect for your project can be tricky, especially if you've never worked with one before. In general, small remodeling projects like replacing fixtures typically don't require the expertise of an architect. However, larger projects, like moving walls or adding an addition to your home, should include an architect to ensure the project is structurally sound.
