Built for this place, not a template.
Chattanooga work splits between century-old homes downtown, on the North Shore, and in St. Elmo — where knob-and-tube, balloon framing, and settled foundations are normal findings — and commercial tenant space on the Southside.
Interior work is where a project earns or loses your trust. Our finish crews are Rivco employees, not day labor. That means the same person who set your tile will come back to caulk it, and the paint edge you see in the guest bath will match the one in the primary.

Interior Renovation & Finish Work in Chattanooga — common questions.
- Does Rivco work in Chattanooga, TN?
- Yes. Chattanooga, TN is inside our core service area, and we are licensed and insured in both Tennessee and Georgia. Our office is in Cleveland, TN, and crews run to Chattanooga, TN regularly.
- How fast can you get to a project in Chattanooga, TN?
- We reply to estimate requests within one business day and are usually on-site for a walkthrough within the same week. Emergencies get a same-day response — one Chattanooga business owner had an AC failure on a holiday weekend and Alex turned around from two hours away to get there that day.
- Do you use your own crews for finish work?
- Yes. Our finish crews are Rivco employees, not day labor. The person who sets your tile comes back to caulk it.
- Can you do interior-only work without a full remodel?
- Yes — flooring, tile, drywall, paint, trim, and cabinetry can be scoped as standalone projects.
- What does custom cabinetry cost and how long does it take?
- Custom millwork is typically 12–20 weeks from approved shop drawings and often a $15–25K premium over semi-custom. We place long-lead orders during design rather than after permit.
- How do you keep dust out of the rest of the house?
- Negative-air containment, zip walls, floor protection on the circulation path, and end-of-day cleanup that is a contract line item.
