What a storm claim looks like on Mount Pleasant roofs.
When a named storm or a summer squall line comes across the harbor, Mount Pleasant's east-facing slopes take it first. Wind creases and lifts shingles along the edges and ridges, and from the ground it looks fine.
We photograph every slope, meet your adjuster on the roof and show them what we found, and give you and your insurer a written repair estimate. Our office is in town, so we get on site within days of the storm, and the Town of Mount Pleasant emergency-repair paperwork is part of the job.
First 48 hours in Mount Pleasant: photograph the roof and yard from the ground, note the storm's date and hour, open the claim with your carrier yourself, and do not let the first truck on the street after a harbor blow onto a Snee Farm or Park West roof. After Matthew and Dorian the town filled with out-of-state crews. South Carolina law lets you choose your own contractor.
A storm rebuild is the moment to build the roof east of the Cooper the way the wind zone demands: the six-nail pattern, sealed rakes and eaves, and stainless fasteners near the water. Ask your agent whether your policy carries ordinance or law coverage for code upgrades. For an I'On or Old Village house, we file the design review submission early so approval never delays the crew.
1950s Old Village cottages and ranches, often on plank decking; 1980s to 1990s Snee Farm and Hobcaw on their second or third shingle cycle; 2000s to 2020s Park West, Dunes West, Carolina Park and Rivertowne two-stories with builder-grade architectural shingle, moderate pitch, and standing seam growing along the waterfront.
Headquartered in Mount Pleasant. Snee Farm is ten minutes from our office and Carolina Park is fifteen, so a second look after a storm is a short drive.

Asked in Mount Pleasant.
How much does storm damage repair cost in Mount Pleasant?
The inspection and the written, photo-documented damage report cost nothing. Storm repairs in Mount Pleasant run $850 to $4,950, and a full replacement starts at $14,000 on our published ladder, the same price whether insurance pays or you do. The claim is yours, and we never pay your deductible. East-facing slopes take a harbor storm first, and a rebuild east of the Cooper adds the six-nail pattern, sealed rakes and stainless fasteners near the water, plus a design review filing for I'On and Old Village homes.
Who issues the roofing permit for a house in Mount Pleasant?
Inside town limits, the Town of Mount Pleasant's Building Inspection Division issues the re-roof permit and inspects the work, not Charleston County. Permits are applied for through the Town's online permitting system. We file the permit under your order and schedule the inspections. If your house is in the Old Village or I'On, the design review step comes first and we prepare that submission too.
Will a claim raise my premium?
Ask your agent. Every insurance company treats weather claims differently. We give you the photos either way.
How long do I have to file after a storm?
Your policy sets the deadline. Get the damage photographed within a few weeks, before the weather wears it down.
Do you waive deductibles?
No. The deductible is yours. We never pay it. Same price whether insurance pays or you do.
How fast can you get out after a storm?
Inspections within 48 hours, sooner when a storm has come through. You get a written, photo-documented damage report either way.
Will you handle my insurance claim?
The claim is yours. We meet your adjuster on the roof, show them what we found, and give you a written repair price.
