"This is the second time I have used 1st Source for remodeling. First time was to move wall, create a unique entry way, and improve line of sight in the house. The result was just what I wanted, and unique and pretty stunning. On time and under budget. Latest project was a complete kitchen remodel. Everything was demolished. New kitchen island created with sink, counter and dishwasher (that required cracking concrete and moving plumbing. All new kitchen cabinets, pantry, counters, backsplash, flooring. The project came out perfect. Achieve what I wanted including maximizing space, cabinets, and again, a uniqueness to distinguish my home from others in the neighborhood. All quality products, new appliances, wonderful sub-contractors, CLEAN, exacting, responsive. This major project also came in on-time and under budget, even when additions/changes were made on the fly. Jon is so easy to work with, and collaborative. There is not another professional with whom I would want to do business. You can take advice, and trust that what is being told is to achieve the desired outcome. If one has a project, call 1st Source, and just know that it will be what you want."

"Great value for the money. The two car attached garage that was added to the end of the house was done without formal plans. Damien used my rough ideas to create the construction plans that were submitted to the town for approval. The completed project was exactly what I was hoping for. One note, the concrete work was the only part of the project that reduced my rating from 5 to 4.5."

"I had MA Design & Construction do some ceiling repairs after my roof leaked and some new electrical work. The team was great to have around, and their work was outstanding. Even better, what sets them apart is the level of care they put into the process. They returned a few days later to do a punch list inspection and promptly fixed anything we noticed. I recommend them and will call them again for my next project."

"This is the second time I have used Don. I am a property manager and have been searching for a good/honest contractor for the last 6 years and I have to say that I found one with Quality Solutions. We had an apartment get totally flooded from walls to floors and Don came and did the work and you could never tell there was anything wrong. He did amazing work not only was the tenant impressed but so was I. I highly recommend him for any job big or small that needs to be done!!"

Home Building questions, answered by experts

Properties adjacent to tidal wetlands in Murrells Inlet require specialized coastal permits that add time to your home building schedule. Lots located in high-hazard flood zones demand complex elevated foundations and deep pilings to navigate the sandy soil. Additionally, properties near the county line require coordination with multiple jurisdictions for utilities. Finally, lots without municipal sewer access require engineered septic systems designed to handle the high coastal water table.

Helpful?

The most critical detail for home building in Murrells Inlet is your flood zone designation, which dictates your minimum base flood elevation and foundation requirements. You also need to confirm whether your lot falls under Horry or Georgetown County jurisdiction, as this changes your permit process. Finally, check your lot elevation, soil conditions, and proximity to tidal marshes, as these factors dictate the prep work required before construction begins.

Helpful?

Always verify that your contractor holds an active state license for residential construction. Because Murrells Inlet spans two counties, hire a professional with proven permit experience in your specific county. Your builder must have direct experience with elevated foundations and coastal marsh regulations. Finally, confirm they carry adequate liability insurance for storm risks and possess a strong network of local subcontractors to keep your home building schedule on track.

Helpful?

Completing home building projects in Murrells Inlet offers immediate perks like qualifying for homestead exemptions to lower your property taxes. Finishing construction before hurricane season keeps your home safe from weather delays. Over time, building to current South Carolina coastal wind and flood zone standards lowers your insurance premiums. Plus, a well-built home holds strong resale value and generates excellent rental income in this popular coastal market.

Helpful?

The intense hurricane season in SC requires contractors to finish framing and dry-in the structure before August to avoid storm damage. High humidity impacts concrete drying times and requires careful HVAC sizing to manage moisture. Additionally, the coastal salt air accelerates metal corrosion, making durable fasteners essential. Fortunately, the mild winters allow home building to continue year-round without freezing delays, keeping your project on a steady schedule.
