The Hannah Standard: Our Proven Construction Process
Hannah Custom Homes has developed a comprehensive six-phase approach that brings structure and clarity to custom home building in Shackle Island, TN. We begin with pre-construction planning, collaborating with your architect and design team to review plans thoroughly before construction starts. This isn't just about confirming measurements; we're evaluating buildability, identifying potential challenges, and ensuring your design aligns with your budget. Addressing these considerations upfront prevents costly surprises and change orders down the road.
Once we've finalized plans, we prepare detailed estimates and design documentation that guide your selections throughout the build. Construction then proceeds through our systematic phases: foundation work, framing, mechanical systems installation, insulation and drywall, interior finishes, and final inspections. We maintain consistent communication at every stage, keeping you informed about progress and bringing you on site regularly so you can see your Shackle Island, TN, home coming together. After you move in, our commitment continues. We conduct walkthroughs at one month and 11 months after occupancy to address any concerns that surface once you've settled in. Our Custom Care program also provides ongoing maintenance support, handling seasonal service and system checks that keep your home performing beautifully for years to come. That's what building to the Hannah Standard means.

Homes That Solve Problems in Shackle Island, TN
Hannah Custom Homes has learned that the most satisfying projects address specific challenges rather than just checking boxes on a luxury feature list. Maybe your current home has a kitchen where traffic flow creates constant conflicts during meal prep. Perhaps you're caring for elderly parents who need first-floor accessibility without compromising the home's overall aesthetic. You might need a dedicated workspace that's truly separated from household activity because you're in video meetings throughout the day.
We approach these situations by understanding the underlying problem before proposing solutions. We ask questions about your daily routines, your frustrations with previous homes, and what you're hoping will be different this time. Those conversations inform decisions about room placement, ceiling heights, window locations, storage solutions, and material selections. We also consider how your needs might shift over time. Children who need play areas now will eventually need study spaces, work situations change, and lifestyle priorities evolve. By building flexibility into your Shackle Island, TN, home's design, we create spaces that adapt as your life changes rather than requiring major renovations down the road. If you're ready to work with a custom home builder who starts by understanding what you're trying to accomplish, contact us to discuss your Shackle Island, TN, custom home project.
Frequently Asked Questions.
Find answers to common questions about our building process.
4,000 SQFT and up.
The cost to build a custom home can have a large range depending on the floor plan, selections and placement of the home on the lot. The most cost-effective home is a 2-story crawlspace, followed by a basement 2-story and a 3-story basement home. A 1-story home is the most expensive to build.
Some of the larger cost affecting items are often items not included in the heated and cool square footage including large covered porches, unfinished areas of the home, expansive garages, detached garages and 2 story ceilings.
An average 4,500-6,000 sq ft home can be expected to take between 11-12 months from the date the footer begins or the basement walls are set. Basement plans take longer than crawl spaces. Homes over 6,000 will take longer, depending on the size and specifics of the plan.
Although we do not have architecture in house, we do have a short list of architects that we would be happy to recommend, who design a lovely home, and whose plans are buildable. Homeowners are not required to work from our shortlist of architects. Although we prefer to be involved prior to the creation or purchase of plans, we are open to discussing builds with clients who have already purchased plans.
In most cases, the homeowner comes to Hannah Custom Homes with the land purchased. However, there are times where Hannah has land developed and available for purchase. Please contact us for inquiries.
If you are searching for land in a subdivision, we recommend checking with the homeowner’s association for restrictions and making sure the lot size is large enough for the size of the home you want to build.
When looking for tracts of land outside of a subdivision, there are a few things to consider:
- Is gas, electric, water, sewer or septic available? How far off the road you place your home determines the cost of utilities.
- How much site prep needs to be done before building can begin?
- Also consider if the lot is ideal for a crawlspace or basement home, especially if you have already finalized plans.
