Greentech Homes LLC
GreenTech Homes began with a shared vision between founders Paul Teruya and Jim Storey, who originally met while launching a specialty cabinetry business — now known as 4-Day Cabinets. In 2008, an opportunity arose to build homes in the new Jefferson Heights Park neighborhood in Chattanooga’s Southside, a project championed by the Lyndhurst Foundation. That’s where the story of GreenTech Homes truly began. Show more
GreenTech Homes began with a shared vision between founders Paul Teruya and Jim Storey, who originally met while launching a specialty cabinetry business — now known as 4-Day Cabinets. In 2008, an opportunity arose to build homes in the new Jefferson Heights Park neighborhood in Chattanooga’s Southside, a project championed by the Lyndhurst Foundation. That’s where the story of GreenTech Homes truly began.
From the beginning, every home was designed with thoughtfulness and precision. Paul and Jim would spend countless hours refining floor plans — obsessing over the details to make the most of every square foot and to build with lasting quality. That same commitment still guides our team today.
What started as a single infill project has since grown into a citywide movement. GreenTech Homes now builds across some of Chattanooga’s most cherished areas, including St. Elmo, North Chattanooga, Southside, Red Bank, and beyond. Our neighborhoods are walkable, connected, and designed to foster relationships — not just sell homes.
At GreenTech, we believe homebuilding is more than floor plans and finishes. It's about crafting spaces where life happens — morning coffee on the porch, impromptu sidewalk chats, backyard barbecues with neighbors who become lifelong friends. To us, “green” means building intentionally: using high-quality materials, integrating modern, energy-conscious technologies, and always thinking about how people will actually live in the space.
Every member of our team is passionate about what we do — and it shows. Whether it’s solving the puzzle of a tricky layout, tracking down the perfect detail to match a homeowner’s vision, or simply seeing someone light up as they walk through their finished home, we’re driven by the joy of the people we serve.
This isn’t just construction. It’s community-building. And we’re proud to help families across Chattanooga start their next chapter. Hide

The use of soil instead of stilts left me with an impossible lawn to care for. Extremely hilly with an unusually high slope that is dangerous to mow. When the sod was laid it was put down without leveling in the front leaving a never drying dip which obly dies. The sprinkler heads were placed 20 feet beyond my property line.

Premium builder. Nice craftsmanship.

I would be very hesitant to recommend Greentech to a friend. After living in the home for a few months I have encountered poor craftsmanship with minimal attention to detail. For the price paid, the quality is disappointing. Over time I am concerned about the issues we will uncover. I generally do believe Greentech has tried to address most issues we have brought to their attention.

SHODDY WORK. Mistake after repair after mistake. In addition problem with cracked tile the supposedly repaired and now that warranty is over by 2 months-it’s cracked again and they won’t repair!

Review in Hixson, TN
Greentech was supposed to have finished a number of things prior to my move in in November. It took calling Melinda to get anything done. Melinda has been great.

I am likely to recommend Greentech Homes LLC to a friend because it's been a very thorough yet enjoyable process thus far.

Everyone was very professional. Very impressed by the overall operation of the entire company.

I’m in the process of buying a second home with Greentech!
Jan W.
The organization & simplicity of process
Jim T.
The process has been easy with great communication. I felt like I could ask anything without judgement of whether it was a dumb question or not.
Mert T.
Garden soil we accepted was covered with the net so we could not observe the soil quality. And now we figured out that all rock and we had to recover with real soil and seed and fertilizer which requires effort and cost. Greentech said it was our responsibility which I do not agree.
Reed R.
Combined with the standard features of the home and the wonderful staff, building from 600 miles away couldn't have been easier. The level of communication was awesome and the attention to any request we had was great.

Greentech builds a quality home. We were very pleased with the communication process with the project manager and the willingness to listen to feedback. The warranty process has been very easy due to the attentiveness of the warranty manager.

The homes are nice but honestly, if something wasn't done before closing it falls to the bottom of a constantly growing priority list. Often times we felt ignored or forgotten about it took so long to get things done. 1 year later and I am still waiting on some items to be completed.
Mathias S.
I was on the fence after closing if I would give 5 stars. It was stressful with last minute items needing to be fixed and expectations not met. Plus the last minute added HOA and continual hassle after closing with that is frustrating. Overall though we love our home and understand nothing is perfect. Greentech has really made a big effort to make sure we were happy and that has changed my recommendation rating. Melinda and Jake have been phenomenal in that aspect, truly changing my mind.
James
I've really been pleased lately with the improvement in communication and the projects being completed in the development.
