No state prevailing wage on private projects, no state income tax, and business-friendly permitting make Tennessee highly attractive for general contractors. The EV and automotive manufacturing boom is driving significant industrial construction across the state. Tennessee requires a General Contractor license through the Tennessee Department of Commerce and Insurance for most commercial projects. No state prevailing wage on private projects. Nashville Metro Codes and Memphis permit offices may have additional local licensing requirements.
