Palmetto Home Improvements team on site

Our Story

Built on the Grand Strand. Built to Last.

We've been fixing, building, and improving properties across Myrtle Beach for over 15 years. Here's who we are and why it matters.

How We Got Started

Palmetto Home Improvements was founded in 2009 by a Myrtle Beach native who saw a gap in the market: property managers and condo associations needed a reliable contractor who understood the unique demands of coastal construction — salt air, humidity, storm damage, and the tight turnaround schedules that come with vacation rental properties.

What started as a two-person operation doing unit repairs for a single HOA has grown into a full-service general contracting company with a team of licensed tradespeople covering everything from plumbing and electrical to full building renovations.

We're still based right here in Myrtle Beach. We know the building codes, the weather patterns, and the materials that hold up on the coast. That local knowledge is something you can't outsource.

I started this company because I was tired of seeing property managers get burned by contractors who didn't show up, didn't communicate, and didn't stand behind their work. We built Palmetto around the opposite of that.

How We Work

01

We Show Up

Scheduled start times are commitments, not suggestions. If something changes, you'll hear from us before the job does.

02

We Communicate

You'll always know the status of your project. We send updates, flag issues early, and never leave you guessing.

03

We Stand Behind Our Work

Every project comes with a workmanship warranty. If something isn't right, we come back and fix it — no argument.

04

We Know the Coast

Coastal construction has unique demands. We use materials and methods that hold up against salt air, humidity, and hurricane-season storms.
