Census and NOAA figures for the city of Kingsport in Sullivan County, not the metro, with a source for each.
The median home in the city of Kingsport was built in 1975, older than the U.S. median of 1980 and older than the Tennessee median of 1987.1 Somewhat more of Kingsport's housing predates 1980 than the national share: 57% against 50%, with 9% built since 2010.1 Older housing stock means a contractor's first job is finding what is behind the finish - wiring, plumbing and roof decking - before a price is final. Owner-occupied homes in Kingsport are older than rentals: a median build year of 1973 against 1977.1 Where owner-occupied homes skew older, a repair-versus-replace conversation is the usual starting point rather than a like-for-like swap.
Housing in Kingsport is mostly detached single-family: 63% of units, with 21% in buildings of five or more units.1 A mostly detached stock means the full range of exterior work applies: roofs, garage doors, chimneys and backyard units. 60% of occupied homes in Kingsport are owner-occupied (67% statewide).1 The median owner-occupied home in Kingsport is valued at $234,100 (ACS), below the Tennessee median of $286,700.1 With values below the state median, phased scopes - the essential work first - are a common way to keep a project sensible.
The Bristol Tri City Ap station averages 94 nights a year at or below 32°F and 22 at or below 20°F.2,3 A real freeze season means masonry, roofing and exterior sealing are specified for freeze-thaw cycles. Summer heat is moderate: about 23 days a year reach 90°F.2,3 Rainfall is substantial: about 44 inches a year, 9 days of it an inch or more.2,3 Heavy rainfall makes flashing, drainage and ventilation details the difference between a sound assembly and a wet one.
Heating dominates the year: about 4,150 heating degree days against 1,104 cooling degree days (base 65°F).2,3 In a heating-led climate, insulation and air sealing carry most of the energy-code weight for any work that opens the envelope. Kingsport sits in IECC climate zone 4A (Mixed-Humid).4 Building permits in Kingsport are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
