Roof repair and replacement in Dickson.

Dickson began as a stop on the railroad between Nashville and the Tennessee River, known for a time as the Mile 42 post, and took its name from Congressman William Dickson. Historic Downtown Dickson and the Clement Railroad Hotel Museum still point back to that era. The city has grown steadily since 1890, with its biggest recent jump, about 39 percent, between 1990 and 2000, and it passed 16,000 residents at the 2020 census.

Neighborhoods include East Hills near Luther Lake, Druid Hills, Clement Heights, Bellwood Heights, StoneBrook, and Cherry Springs Estates, and new building has been going up south of Highway 70 and east of Highway 46. Highway 70 runs along the north side of town as Henslee Drive. The city center sits on the Tennessee Valley Divide at about 800 feet, and past the city limits the land opens into rolling farmland and acreage toward Montgomery Bell State Park in Burns. On that kind of property we can quote the house, a shop, and a barn together, in shingles or metal.

Dickson is one of the longer drives we make, roughly 70 minutes from Murfreesboro by Interstate 840 and Interstate 40, then north on Highway 46 from Exit 172. Rather than make that trip for one job at a time, we group Dickson County inspections and installs into planned blocks. Phone us with the address and we can tell you when our next Dickson trip is planned.
