A rural county north of Cookeville
Gainesboro is the Jackson County seat and home to the county courthouse. Dodson Branch, a census-designated community, counted about 1,160 residents in 2020 and has no town government of its own. It lies on State Route 135 in the southern part of the county, a low-density area of homes on wooded acreage at roughly 104 people per square mile.

State Route 135 links the county south to Cookeville in Putnam County and north to Gainesboro, turning very curvy as it approaches the county seat. State Route 477, Cummins Mill Road, meets it just south of Dodson Branch. Much of the county is rural, and we serve all of it, incorporated or not. An address with no town name, a gravel drive or a mailbox on a state route is as much a part of our service area as the courthouse square.
How we serve Jackson County
We are a mobile company based in the Nashville area and keep no office in the Upper Cumberland. Most trips come east on I-40 and north through Cookeville. Because homes here can sit on long drives or unmarked roads, we ask for directions and a contact number when you call 615-513-5112. The line is answered day and night.
Rural properties shape the work. Homes may rely on septic systems and private wells, and sheds, garages and crawlspaces often become part of a job. Common calls include a death at home that was not discovered right away, septic backups, rodent and animal waste, hoarding, and vehicles that need cleaning after an incident.
If a death or crime is involved, law enforcement or the medical examiner must release the home first. We explain the scope before beginning and refer septic repair, pest exclusion and construction work to the right trades. Nearby, we also serve Livingston in Overton County.
