Homes and water in Hanahan

Hanahan has about 8,671 housing units according to the Census ACS 2020-2024, with a median year built of 1986. The housing here is mixed: 27% built before 1980 and 39% in 2000 or later. That means everything from raised older houses over crawl spaces to slab-on-grade houses with plumbing in the slab.

Flood claims are less common here than on the islands and the peninsula: 248 on record in this ZIP code, 151 since 2015. Most water damage jobs here start inside the house, with a plumbing leak or a roof leak in a storm.

The air is the same story across the Lowcountry. Charleston International Airport averages about 140 days a year with a dew point of 65°F or more, nearly all of them from May through October. Wet materials that don't dry within a day or two are where mold starts.

How it works

  1. Tell us what got wet, or what you found. Use the form or text photos. Say how long it has been wet if you know.
  2. A local restoration company calls you back. They ask a few questions and set a time to look at it.
  3. You get a written scope and price before work starts. You decide. If insurance is involved, ask how they document the job.

Questions

Do you cover all of Hanahan?

Yes, including ZIP 29410. The company that calls you back will confirm your address is in their service area.

How fast can someone come out?

It depends on the day and how many calls follow a storm. Say in your request if water is still coming in, or if anyone at home has asthma or a weak immune system. The company will tell you when they can come.

Do I get a price first?

Ask for a written scope and price before work starts. With active water, drying often starts on the first visit; ask what the first day will cost and how drying is billed before you sign.
