Residential  Construction
Citadel Construction has been serving the residential construction and renovation needs of Sevier County and Knox County residents for over a decade. Projects completed include countless cabins and mountain retreats throughout Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, and Sevierville. We have also constructed numerous custom homes in and around Knoxville, Seymour, Sevierville, and Gatlinburg, TN. What makes our residential construction services unique is our ability to build efficiently by harnessing the power of our many subcontractors we work with on commercial projects.

Quality is also a key characteristic of our projects. We are committed to each project and work with homeowners in building—or even rebuilding—their dream home. You may have even seen our work on television, as we were the general contractor featured in a 5-episode series on the DIY network where we renovated a home in the historic Sequoyah hills neighborhood in Knoxville, TN. Citadel was also the builder for the Helen Ross McNabb Dream Home Giveaway, among many other projects in East Tennessee.

With a variety of stone, brick, siding, shingle, and log cabin house in our portfolio, you can rest assured that we are competent homebuilders who have "been there and done that." Call us anytime to discuss your residential construction and renovation needs.

INSURANCE RESTORATION PROJECT SPOTLIGHT – When severe cold hit our area in December 2022, many businesses suffered significant damage from frozen pipes and plumbing issues. SCES was of those that suffered major damage and impacted business operations. Our team worked around the clock to repair the damaged water source, removed affected property, cleaned and then restored the office area back to its original state with new flooring and walls. While the business suffered disruption in normal business immediately after the emergency, we were able to get the office staff back to their work in a short time. Water mitigation

Renovation/Remodeling
We are proud to offer a complete line of renovation and tenant build out services for commercial clients of all sizes. From renovation of historic properties to large-scale amusement attractions, we work with our clients to customize each project to the specific space and needs.

Residential clients in the Smoky Mountain region turn to Citadel for all their home renovation needs. From a bathroom refresh to full home, down to the studs renovation, we are committed to working with families to deliver their dream home and space.

Design/Build
We offer design-build project delivery to provide our clients one source for collaboration and innovation. The benefits of design-build have saved time and money for many of our clients and allows us to deliver high quality projects from start to finish. We take full responsibility for quality, cost and schedule. By managing multiple, parallel objectives, including aesthetic and functional quality, budget and schedule adherence, we free the owner to focus on timely decision making, and scope and needs definition, rather than coordinating between designer and builder.

Benefits of Design-Build:

Sole Source Responsibility: Citadel Construction takes full responsibility for quality, cost and schedule. By managing multiple, parallel objectives, including aesthetic and functional quality, budget and schedule adherence, we free the owner to focus on timely decision making, and scope and needs definition, rather than coordinating between designer and builder.

Quality: The sole source responsibility inherent in design-build provides the basis for quality and proper project performance. There are no conflicts or finger pointing between designer and builder over quality issues. If a problem does arise, Citadel Construction, as design-builder, addresses it.

Cost Savings: Design and construction personnel, working and communicating as a team, evaluate alternative materials and methods efficiently and accurately. Value engineering and constructability are implemented from the beginning of the project. The 1997 Penn State study that evaluated the traditional design-bid-build, CM at risk and design-build found that design-build delivered projects at less cost than the other two delivery methods.

Time Savings: Design-build is the fastest project delivery method. Because design and construction are overlapped, construction of the project can start before all systems are totally designed. Long bidding periods and redesign are eliminated. Time savings reduce labor costs and earlier utilization of the completed facility.

Construction Consulting
Citadel Construction can serve as construction consultant for any commercial job. Our experience and knowledge can help clients oversee and assess building costs, help negotiate contracts, and assess worker safety for a variety of job types.
