"Mr. Mike is truly an honest and very admirable handy man. He is true to his word and explains to you everything he is doing on your home remodel project. He listens to you about everything you want in your remodel plans. I was very nervous to find someone to help me redo my front main bathroom again after the first contractor never showed back up to finish the job. Mr. Mike showed up on time. He looked at my floor and looked at my bathroom. He immediately knew I had a water leak. The tile grout was all cracking on the bathroom floor and the bathroom had a terrible smell like old wet rotted wood. Mr. Mike gutted the bathroom again told me there was no rubber liner used for the shower and I had black mold. I was so upset, but Mr. Mike was so nice and calm which made me feel better. He basically rebuilt my entire bathroom. It only took him 5 days. He also found electrical wires by my water lines!! I am over the moon happy about my new bathroom and beautiful floors throughout my whole house. He also installed new interior doors. I loved the guys work and honesty so much that I redid another bathroom in my back bedroom. Mr. Mike is a handy man keeper!"

"I hired Josh to hang some mirrors , painting, install chandelier, and do some electrical work. He is great and very detail oriented to make sure everything was hung symmetrically and straight. I extremely recommend him to anyone who needs work done."

I have 40 years of experience in interior and exterior remodeling and repairs on Kiawah Island. I have now moved on to serve the Charleston area with any construction and home repair needs. I would prefer smaller jobs these days, but I can repair, remodel, or replace almost anything. From repairing exterior rot, painting, pressure washing, and gutter cleaning to remodeling bathrooms and doing interior repairs, I've got you covered. I have a long list of references I would be glad to provide if necessary. I also provide free estimates. I focus on quality work at a quality price. If it's done right the first time, you won't have to worry about it a second time. That's my goal.

Handyman Services questions, answered by experts

In Charleston, most handyman projects over $1,000 require a building permit from the City of Charleston Building Department. Projects in historic districts must also be reviewed by the Board of Architectural Review. Electrical and plumbing work need separate permits and must be completed by licensed professionals, as required by the South Carolina Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation. Always verify requirements before starting to avoid fines or project delays.

Helpful?

For handyman projects in Charleston, DIY can save on labor costs and provide personal satisfaction, but may lead to code violations or safety hazards if you lack experience. Hiring a licensed local professional ensures compliance with city permit requirements and building codes, especially for electrical or plumbing work. Consider your skills, project complexity, and Charleston's permitting rules before deciding which approach is best.

Helpful?

Before starting a handyman project in Charleston, confirm with the City of Charleston Building Department if a permit or Board of Architectural Review approval is needed, especially for historic properties. Prepare all required documents, set a clear budget, and schedule necessary inspections early. Check material availability at local suppliers and monitor weather forecasts, as Charleston's climate can impact project timelines.

Helpful?

In Charleston, be cautious of handyman service quotes that are much lower than others, lack a detailed scope of work, or require large upfront payments. Avoid professionals unwilling to provide proof of insurance or local references. For historic homes, ensure the contractor understands local preservation requirements and uses approved materials. Reliable home repair pros will offer clear contracts, communicate openly, and never pressure you into quick decisions.

Helpful?

Completing handyman service and home repair projects in Charleston offers immediate benefits like improved storm protection, better energy efficiency, and enhanced comfort. Over time, these upgrades help maintain your home’s historic charm, support higher property values, and may qualify you for reduced insurance premiums. Well-maintained homes also attract quality tenants and stand up better to Charleston’s coastal climate, providing lasting peace of mind and financial stability.
