Athens, GA Contractor

Our Monroe office is approximately 40 minutes from Athens. We maintain daily presence on all Athens job sites and have built strong relationships with Clarke County permitting officials.

Yes. We understand the additional requirements for renovation work in Athens' historic neighborhoods and work within the guidelines while delivering modern comfort and function.

We serve all of Athens-Clarke County including Five Points, Normaltown, Boulevard, Cobbham, the Eastside, Westside, and all commercial corridors.

If a permit is needed for your project, yes — Nehemiah Construction manages the entire permitting process, including plan submission, inspections, and final approval.

Costs for your kitchen remodel vary depending on scope, materials, and complexity. Every project is different, so we provide detailed estimates customized to your specific goals and budget. Please reach out to Nehemiah Construction for a quote and we'll walk you through your options after an in-home consultation.

If a permit is needed for your remodeling project, Nehemiah Construction handles the entire permitting process on your behalf — including plan submission, inspections, and final approval — so you don't have to navigate it yourself. Permit requirements vary by jurisdiction and depend on the scope of work, so we'll confirm what applies to your specific project during the consultation.

Timelines depend on scope and the home itself. A bathroom remodel takes 2 to 6 weeks, a kitchen runs 4 to 8 weeks, and a whole-home renovation can take 3 to 6 months. Older Athens homes with outdated systems may need additional time for electrical or plumbing upgrades discovered during the project.

Verify their Georgia contractor license and insurance, ask for references from Athens projects, and confirm they have experience with the type of home you own. Athens has everything from 1920s bungalows to modern builds, and each requires different expertise. Nehemiah Construction is dual-licensed and has worked across every era of Athens housing.

Yes. Beyond Athens, we serve Watkinsville, Oconee County, Winterville, Bogart, and the broader Northeast Georgia region including Monroe, Loganville, Winder, and Jefferson.

Our workmanship is warrantied and we honor it without argument. If a fixture we installed leaks, a tile cracks from subfloor movement, or a door we hung sags, we come back and fix it. Manufacturer warranties on materials pass through to you at full value, with documentation included in your closeout package. Nehemiah is licensed (general contractor and electrician) and fully insured, so if anything happens during or shortly after the project, you are protected. Athens clients know that Chanch lives and works in the community — a post-project problem is not a ticket we lose track of, it is a reputation risk we handle personally.

Chanch Edwards, the owner, is personally involved in every Athens project. On smaller jobs he is often on site frequently. On larger builds he runs a single lead for day-to-day supervision and stays the primary client contact. Either way, you have one phone number to call and one person accountable for the whole project. Clients get updates as major milestones happen — rough-in passed inspection, cabinets installed, tile grouted — without having to chase us for information. Because our office is in Monroe and Athens is inside our core service area, we are reachable when you need us.
