Homes and buildings in Athens

About 60% of homes in Athens were built before 1980, and the typical home dates from 1972. Buildings that age often still have older single-pane glass and worn aluminum frames, so loose panes, failing seals and tired door hardware come up a lot. More homes here went up in the 1950s than in any other period. That makes its housing older than about 78% of Tennessee towns its size.

Housing is a mix, with about 68% single-family houses and 14% in apartment buildings. About 58% of homes here are lived in by their owners, and we work with homeowners and shop owners alike.

Storm winds in McMinn County

NOAA storm records for McMinn County list 3 hail reports (the largest 1.75 inches across) and 33 thunderstorm wind reports from 2020 through 2024. Hail that size can break window glass and dent aluminum frames.

Humid summers wear out sealants and insulated glass, and wind-driven rain finds any weak seal.
