Buy your Isle of Palms roof online, from wherever you live.

Yes. Many Isle of Palms roofs are decided by an owner who is not standing under them. Enter the property address, and the calculator measures the roof from aerial imagery and shows a published price for each package. Pick The Pearl Metal, High Wind, Peace Of Mind or Lowcountry Classic, then book a free inspection from wherever you are. Your written estimate follows within 24 hours of the inspection, the price is fixed in writing before work starts, and the City of Isle of Palms permit and any Wild Dunes ARB submission are handled under your order.

Oceanfront and V zone lots on Front Beach, the Wild Dunes beachfront and the Breach Inlet end get The Pearl Metal: standing seam aluminum with hidden fasteners, a salt-air-rated finish and the top wind rating on the ladder. An elevated 1970s to 1990s beach house on Forest Trail, Palm Boulevard or the numbered avenues, one or two rows back, gets High Wind at minimum, six nails per shingle on a TAMKO HailGuard shingle built for hail and wind, with Pearl as the upgrade that ends the shingle cycle. On the Waterway Boulevard side there is dock-facing wind but no surf, so High Wind is the value answer.

Inside Wild Dunes, the Architectural Review Board reviews roof material, color and profile, we sequence that review ahead of the City of Isle of Palms permit, and single-family homes and villa regimes follow different paths. For a single-family home, we prepare the ARB package with your order, with panel profile and color samples, and hold the install date until it clears. For Fairway Villas, Ocean Club, Beach Club Villas, Grand Pavilion or Mariners Walk, the roof belongs to the regime, so the buyer is the regime board, and we price the building as a whole.

The City of Isle of Palms. The island is its own municipality with its own building department, separate from Charleston County and Mount Pleasant, and the City inspects the fastening pattern and drip edge on an elevated house to the wind requirements that apply here. We pull the City permit under your order and schedule the final inspection before the crew leaves the island.

Ask your agent. Wind coverage is the expensive line on an Isle of Palms policy, and a documented high-wind roof is what a carrier looks at in a wind mitigation review. Some policies credit a sealed deck, rated shingle and six-nail fastening, and some rate a standing seam metal roof as its own class; whether yours does is up to your insurance company. High Wind and Pearl are built to those standards, and we hand you the photos, fastener schedule and product documentation your agent needs. Your flood policy is separate.

Most Isle of Palms replacements run $14,500 to $78,600. 1,800 sq ft interior-lot cottage, 41st to 57th Avenue on Lowcountry Classic runs $14,500 to $15,900. 2,000 sq ft elevated beach house, Forest Trail or Palm Boulevard on High Wind runs $22,550 to $24,650. 2,400 sq ft oceanfront home, Wild Dunes on The Pearl Metal runs $78,600. Fixed in writing first.

Fifteen minutes from Mount Pleasant over the Isle of Palms Connector, with Sullivan's Island on the same dispatch run across Breach Inlet.

The City of Isle of Palms issues its own building permits through its Building Department, separate from Charleston County. The City's building codes page lists the 2021 codes as adopted in South Carolina with state modifications, so a re-roof is permitted and inspected to that code. If your property belongs to a property owners association or villa regime, its approval usually comes before the City permit, and we prepare that submission with your order.

Most homes are torn off and re-roofed in one day. Larger or steeper roofs take two.
