What gutter work looks like on Hollywood & Ravenel roofs.
The live oak and loblolly canopy over the Highway 162 ranches, the Meggett road side and the whole Ravenel corridor fills gutters year-round, and the long single-story run on a 1970s ranch means one clogged downspout backs up the whole side of the house. We install 6-inch seamless aluminum and recommend micro-mesh guards.
On the Caw Caw lowland side of Ravenel and the marsh-edge lots in Poplar Grove, where the ground holds water after a hard rain, downspout extensions that carry water away from a crawlspace or a slab are part of the install. Stono Ferry's steep hips and dormers shed a lot of water fast, and the builder's 5-inch gutters usually need upsizing for the roof area.
On this corridor the gutter job often includes the outbuilding. A barn or workshop on a Log Bridge Road or Sniders Highway lot that sheds its roof water toward the house side is the reason the house's crawlspace stays wet, and a gutter on the barn with a downspout run to daylight fixes what a bigger house gutter never could. We look at where the water on the whole lot ends up before we size anything.
Fascia comes first on the older ranches. Decades of oak leaves holding water in a Highway 162 gutter rot the fascia and the rafter tails behind it, and a new gutter on soft wood sags in a season. We open the edge, replace the rot, wrap the fascia in matching trim coil, and hang the gutter on solid material, with the fascia work priced as its own line so a homeowner an hour from our office knows exactly what was done.

Asked in Hollywood & Ravenel.
How much do gutters cost in Hollywood or Ravenel?
Gutters in Hollywood or Ravenel cost $2,200 to $5,600 for 6-inch seamless aluminum and downspouts, with micro-mesh guards at about $8 to $12 a foot. The live oak and loblolly canopy over the Highway 162 ranches and the Ravenel corridor fills an open gutter year-round, so guards usually belong in the quote. The outbuilding is the corridor's variable, because a barn or workshop on a Log Bridge Road lot that sheds toward the house keeps the crawlspace wet, and guttering it with a downspout to daylight can fix what a bigger house gutter never could.
Who handles a roofing permit in the Town of Hollywood or the Town of Ravenel?
Each town starts with its own paperwork. In Hollywood, the Town takes the building and zoning permit application, and Charleston County building inspectors conduct all inspections. In Ravenel, you first get a Ravenel zoning permit and business license, then the building permit and inspections go through CC&I Services, the Town's building permit provider. Parcels outside both town limits go to Charleston County directly. We confirm which applies from your parcel and handle each step under your order.
Do I need 6-inch gutters?
On the coast, yes. Rainfall intensity here overwhelms 5-inch gutters on most roof pitches.
Do guards actually work with live oaks?
Micro-mesh does. Foam and brush inserts do not. We only install the mesh.
Can you install gutters without a new roof?
Yes. Gutters are a standalone job in one day.
What colors are available?
Over 20 standard colors to match trim or fascia.
