We supply garages, shops, barns, barndominium shells and more across Maryville and Blount County. Our work reaches from Alcoa to Townsend and the edge of the Smokies, and anywhere else you’re building. In Maryville, a rear-yard building can sit 5 ft from the side and rear lines, but once it’s taller than 12 ft, it has to sit farther back.

What people build around Maryville
Neighborhoods fill Maryville and Alcoa, and acreage and hill farms climb toward the mountains south of town.
Detached garages
On city lots, the height decides the setback, so roof pitch and eave height get settled early.
Acreage shops
Tubular is hard to beat on an unfinished shop up to sixty feet wide.
Barns & hay storage
Hay barns and equipment buildings serve the farms across the county.
Finished space
Steel truss takes drywall directly, so there’s no wood wall to build inside the steel.
We also work in cold-formed steel and red iron. See what a steel building costs.
Permitting metal buildings in Maryville and Blount County
Maryville’s Development Services Department sets the setbacks and issues permits for accessory structures inside the city.
Inside Maryville
- Rear-yard accessory buildings in residential districts need 5 ft from the side and rear lines, or 10 ft in the Estate zone.
- A building taller than 12 ft has to sit farther from the rear line.
- A building that isn’t behind the house has to meet the full lot setbacks.
Unincorporated Blount County
- Tennessee’s statewide residential program covers new houses, not detached garages or outbuildings.
- Non-residential farm buildings are exempt from the state’s minimum building standards.
- We confirm the county’s requirements for your parcel.
Engineering
- We design to the wind, snow and seismic loads at your address using the ASCE 7 hazard tool.
- Our generic engineering packages are wet-sealed, and occupied buildings are Risk Category II.
Twelve feet is the line to watch. Most metal shops with a roll-up door top 12 ft once you count the roof. In Maryville that pushes the building farther off the rear line, so we settle the eave height and roof pitch against your lot before anything else.
We also serve Alcoa, Friendsville, Louisville, Walland, Townsend and the acreage between them. See the Knoxville area or all of Tennessee.
