Roof replacement in Mount Pleasant, SC
Architectural asphalt and standing seam metal roof systems, installed with the underlayment, flashing, and ventilation that decide whether a roof reaches its rated life. We tear off, inspect the deck, and show you what's underneath before anything new goes down.
Working in Mount Pleasant
What this house, on this street, actually needs.
Mount Pleasant runs from Old Village cottages a few hundred feet off the harbor to twenty-year-old subdivisions in Park West and Carolina Park where the original builder-grade envelope is now reaching the end of its service life. Most of what we're called for here is first-replacement work — the original roof, windows, or siding finally giving up at the same time.
Most Mount Pleasant subdivisions were roofed within a few years of each other, so we see the same original-builder failures repeat street to street — thin underlayment, reused flashing, and ventilation that was never balanced. Your ARC will typically need shingle color and profile approved before install.
HOA rules here usually govern work hours, dumpster placement, and material staging. We get those in writing before day one so the schedule we give you is the schedule you get.

Mount Pleasant FAQs
Straight answers before you commit.
Do you need a permit for roofing work in Mount Pleasant?
Mount Pleasant issues its own building permits through the town, and most planned communities add an architectural review committee on top of that. We handle both — the town submittal and the ARC package with product, color, and profile documentation. We pull the permits in our name and provide inspection records with your closeout documents.
What makes roofing in Mount Pleasant different from inland work?
Salt air attacks the metal parts of a roof long before the shingles wear out — flashing, drip edge, and fasteners. We specify corrosion-appropriate metals and wind-rated fastening at eaves and rakes rather than the minimum the manufacturer will warrant.
Which Mount Pleasant areas do you serve?
We work throughout Mount Pleasant, including Old Village, I'On, Park West, Carolina Park, and the surrounding Lowcountry. Our office is at 668 Marina Dr Unit B7 in Charleston.
Are you licensed and insured to work in Mount Pleasant?
Yes. We carry general liability and workers' compensation coverage, pull permits under our own license, and provide certificates on request before work begins.
How long does a roof replacement take?
Most single-family roofs are a one to two day tear-off and install, weather permitting. Complex rooflines, metal systems, or significant deck repair can run three to five days. You get the schedule in writing before we start.
What happens if you find rotten decking?
We stop, photograph it, price it at the per-sheet rate that's already in your proposal, and get your written approval before we cover anything. No surprise line items at the end.
