Holy City Roofers is a roofing company covering greater Charleston — Charleston, Berkeley and Dorchester counties, from the sea islands and beach towns to Summerville, Goose Creek and Moncks Corner.
We do roofing. Not roofing plus siding plus kitchens. One trade, one set of crews, one warranty to stand behind.
Not every roofer who knocks on your door after a storm will still be around when a problem shows. Before you sign with anyone, look the roofer up: South Carolina requires a residential roofer to be registered with its Residential Builders Commission for any job over $500, and the state keeps an online lookup at llr.sc.gov. We pull our own permits.
If your roof does not need replacing, we will say so. If a claim is not worth filing, we will say that too. If we are not the cheapest bid you get, we will tell you exactly what is in ours that is not in theirs.
Every service has its own page, written from the same sources as the rest of the site:
South Carolina's law on roofing contracts and insurance (S.C. Code § 40-59-25) does not let a roofer represent you or negotiate your roof claim, or offer or advertise to. It does not let a roofer advertise or promise to pay or rebate any part of your deductible either, and that includes a discount for putting a sign in your yard. What it does allow is for you to get an evaluation of your roof from a contractor and use it in your own dealings with your insurer. So the line here is simple. We inspect, photograph the damage slope by slope and give you a written, line-item scope you can send your insurer. The claim, the policy and the deductible stay yours. The same law gives you until midnight of the fifth business day after your insurer tells you in writing that all or part of a claim is not covered to cancel a roofing contract that was to be paid from insurance, and no roofer may ask you for payment before that window closes, except for emergency work you agree to in writing.
Each of the 36 city pages is built from that jurisdiction's own published pages and ordinances, researched 2026-10-24. 23 of them publish an answer on whether a re-roof needs a permit, 31 publish the code edition they enforce, and 21 name a building official. Where a city publishes nothing, its page says “Not published” rather than guess, because a guess on a permit page costs the homeowner, not the website.
The housing figures on every city and county page come from the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey, 2020–2024; the hail reports from NOAA's Storm Prediction Center; the design figures from the code research in our roofing code guide. Every page lists its own sources at the bottom, so anything on it can be checked.
We get on the roof, photograph every slope and penetration, and send you the whole set — yours to keep, hire us or not.
One line-itemed proposal with the materials named by brand and product. One number, and it is the number.
One dedicated crew start to finish. Landscaping tarped, site tidied daily, magnet run over the yard before we pull out.
Warranty registered with the manufacturer, finished photos sent, and a phone number that still gets answered in year six.
36 cities, towns and communities across 3 counties. Each one has its own page with who issues the roofing permit, what that office asks for and its own number, because in South Carolina the code is the same statewide but the permit office is not. See every place we cover.
Free inspection, a written scope, and photos you keep either way.
