Bathroom Remodeling in Gallatin, TN

Gallatin homes, from the historic square to the new subdivisions

Gallatin is the Sumner County seat, built around a historic public square with the courthouse at its center. Streets near downtown hold Victorian and early-1900s houses, while newer subdivisions run out toward Hendersonville and the lake. Bathrooms in those two worlds could hardly be more different.

In the older houses near the square, bathrooms were often added into leftover space long after the house was built, with wood framing, plaster and plumbing that has been altered several times. In the newer subdivisions, the typical builder-grade bathroom has a fiberglass tub surround that people are happy to replace with real tile.

We are about ten miles away in Hendersonville, so Gallatin is part of our regular route. Outdoor projects are popular here too, thanks to the lots near Old Hickory Lake and Bledsoe Creek, and we build decks and fences alongside bathroom work.

When we visit a home near the Gallatin square, we pay attention to age: how the floor is framed, what the walls are made of and whether earlier bathroom additions were done carefully. In the subdivisions toward Hendersonville the questions are simpler, such as how the tub surround is attached and what is behind it. Either way, you get a plain explanation of what the project involves and a free quote, whether it is one bathroom or a bathroom plus a deck.
