Deck Building & Siding Installation in Watauga, Tennessee
I & G Construction Services builds custom decks and installs professional siding for homeowners in Watauga, Tennessee. Watauga is an unincorporated community in Carter County, situated just southeast of Johnson City along the Watauga River — an area known for its scenic properties, mountain views, and a growing mix of established and newer homes.
We’re based in Johnson City, approximately 15 minutes from most Watauga properties. Whether your home is along Highway 321, near Siam, or in the neighborhoods between Elizabethton and Johnson City — we come to you for a free on-site estimate.
From custom composite deck builds to complete siding replacements, we handle the full project — permits, materials, construction, and cleanup.

Deck Building for Watauga Homeowners
Watauga properties often feature the rolling, wooded terrain that defines the Carter County landscape. Many homes sit on sloped lots overlooking the Watauga River valley — terrain that’s ideal for raised decks with walk-out access, multi-level designs, and builds that take advantage of mountain and river views.
We build pressure-treated wood decks, Trex and TimberTech composite decks, cedar decks, multi-level and raised designs, platform decks, wraparound builds, and screened additions. We also handle deck repair including board replacement, structural work, and railing upgrades.
Watauga is unincorporated, so deck permits are handled through the Carter County Building Department. We manage the full permit process for you.
Siding Installation and Replacement in Watauga
Watauga’s elevation and proximity to the mountains means homes here see cold, wet winters and humid summers — conditions that accelerate siding deterioration. Moisture-related issues like mold, rot, and freeze-thaw cracking are common on aging siding in the Carter County area.
We install vinyl, James Hardie fiber cement, engineered wood (LP SmartSide), and board and batten siding — plus soffit, fascia, trim, house wrap, and flashing. The full system, not just panels.
If your siding is warping, cracking, fading, showing soft spots, or growing mold that won’t stay gone — we’ll assess it for free and give you an honest recommendation on repair vs. replacement.
