The numbers

The Arlington home-services market

Arlington has about 15,205 residents, up about 2% since 2020.

4,098
Owner-occupied homes

About 84% of Arlington's housing is owner-occupied. Owners are the ones who pay for their own roofs, paint and HVAC — they're who a referral program reaches.

2005
Median year built

The typical Arlington home is around 21 years old. Housing stock ages on a predictable cycle, and roofs, systems and exteriors come due in waves rather than all at once.

$424,400
Median home value

What homes are worth shapes what owners will spend maintaining them.

$135,105
Median household income

The place

About Arlington.

Arlington’s layout starts with the railroad, not a highway interchange: Withe Depot was built on land donated by General Samuel J. Hays and served by the Memphis, Clarksville and Louisville Railroad, giving cotton farms around Shelby County a shipping point and giving residents a link into Memphis. After the Civil War, the Hays estate was subdivided and sold in 1872, with streets named for figures including Andrew Jackson and Charles Quintard. The town incorporated as Haysville in 1878, became Arlington after a post-office conflict with another Haysville, and was re-incorporated in 1900.

For home-service contractors, that history shows up in the residential mix around old Arlington: the first house was built by depot agent Captain Henry Munger Pitman, and several historic residential structures still remain. Depot Square is still the civic center, tied to the Rachel H.K. Burrows Museum, the S.Y. Wilson & Company building, the Blacksmith Shop, and the Historic Post Office. Arlington Community Schools helps anchor family life, while Arlington in April, Music on the Square, Harvest Gathering, and the annual Christmas Parade keep workdays moving around familiar local calendars.

Tennessee licensing

Know your license before you bid.

Tennessee requires a contractor's license before you bid or quote a price on any job totaling $25,000 or more, materials and labor together. That applies to the contractor running the job, and separately to electrical, mechanical, plumbing, HVAC, roofing and masonry work whose own share reaches $25,000. The license has to be in hand before the bid goes out, not before the work starts.

Below that, Shelby County is one of the nine Tennessee counties that adopted the Home Improvement law, so residential work in Arlington from $3,000 to $24,999 needs a Home Improvement license — remodeling, roofing, painting, decks, driveways, pools and fences included. Most of Middle Tennessee has not adopted it, which is why the answer changes from one county to the next.

Licensing rules are set by the Tennessee Board for Licensing Contractors, not by LeadChuck. Verified 2026-07-30; confirm with the Board before you rely on it.

Straight answers

Questions from Arlington contractors.

Does it cost anything to get listed in Arlington?

No. Your public listing is free, and it stays free. You only ever pay when you accept a lead another contractor sends you.

How do leads work in Arlington?

Contractors send jobs they can't take to someone who can. The contractor sending the job picks who to send it to based on the lead fee that contractor has posted, so you're never bidding against anyone. You see the job before you decide, and you pay only if you accept it. Payment is by bank transfer — we don't take card payments.

What is the referral program?

Every past customer gets a permanent referral link. When they refer a friend and confirm it, that customer gets a thank-you gift card — you choose the amount — and it's unconditional: they get it whether or not the friend ever books a job. The friend never sees the gift card; they just arrive as a warm introduction.
