General contractor Murfreesboro TN, based right here in town

Pure Build Construction is a general contractor Murfreesboro TN homeowners can reach quickly, because our shop is in town. Driveways, decks, fences, porches and remodels, handled by a crew that lives a few minutes from your property.

Home Base

A general contractor that works where it lives

Our shop and our crew are in Murfreesboro, and that changes how a project runs. Site visits are usually quick to schedule, material runs are short, and if something needs a second look after the job is finished, we are close enough to come back and see it ourselves.

As a general contractor Murfreesboro TN homeowners call on, we see the full range of the city’s housing. There are older homes on the streets around the downtown square, where decks and porches were often built decades ago and are now due for replacement. Then there are the newer subdivisions spreading out toward Blackman and the Gateway area, where the house is finished but the back yard, the driveway extension or the fence line still needs to be built.

Our work covers both. We pour concrete, frame decks and screened porches, set fence lines, take on remodels, and hang holiday lighting each winter. One crew, one point of contact, and an estimate that tells you plainly what the job involves.

Driveway replacements and new flatwork

Cracked, heaved or undersized driveways are one of the most common calls we get in Murfreesboro. We tear out and repour, widen drives for an extra vehicle, and pour patios, walkways and slabs on a properly compacted base.

Decks and Railings

Deck rebuilds on established homes

On older Murfreesboro homes, the deck is often the first thing to fail: soft boards, loose railings and footings that have shifted. We rebuild from the footings up in treated wood or composite, with stairs and railings that are solid underfoot.

Local Considerations

Building on Murfreesboro ground

A few local conditions shape how we plan projects in and around Murfreesboro.

01

Limestone close to the surface

Murfreesboro sits in Tennessee’s Central Basin, where limestone bedrock is often shallow and the area is known for its cedar glades and thin, rocky soil. Post holes and footings can hit rock well short of their planned depth, so we budget for it at the estimate rather than surprising you mid-job.

02

Sinkholes and drainage

Rutherford County has karst terrain, which means sinkholes and low spots that collect water are not unusual. Before we pour a slab or set a deck, we look at where water goes on the lot and grade or route it so the new work does not create a drainage problem.

03

Clay that moves with the seasons

The clay soils common in Middle Tennessee swell when wet and shrink in dry spells. A good gravel base, proper compaction and well-placed control joints are what keep a driveway or patio from cracking early.

04

Permits and HOAs

Many projects, decks and structural work in particular, call for a City of Murfreesboro building permit, and plenty of newer neighborhoods have HOA rules on fence height and style. We confirm what applies before work starts.

Why Pure Build

Why Murfreesboro homeowners hire Pure Build Construction

We are a locally owned general contractor Murfreesboro TN homeowners and businesses hire for residential and commercial work, licensed and insured. In our home city, that comes down to a few practical things.

  • We are close by

    Most of Murfreesboro is a short drive from our base, which makes estimates, inspections and follow-up visits easier to fit in.

  • You talk to the owner

    Owner Tyler Holt is involved from the estimate on. Reviews on our Google profile mention him by name, along with the fact that he answers his phone.

  • Clean sites, every day

    Material is stacked, debris is hauled and the site is cleaned up at the end of each workday, not just on the last one.

FAQ

Murfreesboro project questions

Do you charge for estimates in Murfreesboro?

No. On-site estimates are free anywhere in our service area, and Murfreesboro is our home base, so we can often schedule a visit quickly.

Will I need a permit for a new deck in Murfreesboro?

In most cases, yes. Decks, porches and other structural additions typically require a building permit from the City of Murfreesboro, or from Rutherford County if you are outside city limits. We confirm the requirements for your address during the estimate.

Why do so many Murfreesboro driveways crack?

The usual causes are clay soil that expands and shrinks with moisture, a thin or poorly compacted base, and too few control joints. When we replace a driveway, we address the base and the jointing, not just the surface.

Can you work around shallow rock when setting fence posts?

Yes. Shallow limestone is common around Murfreesboro. Where we hit rock, we drill or adjust the post setting method so the fence still holds its line, and we discuss the possibility with you before the job starts.
