Mount Pleasant runs from the Old Village by the harbor to newer neighborhoods up Highway 17. The Old Village is a historic district, and the town reviews exterior work there before it starts. Low ground near Shem Creek and the marsh is in FEMA flood zones, which affects additions and large remodels. Building permits go through the Town of Mount Pleasant.

  • Building permits go through the Town of Mount Pleasant.
  • Salt air near the harbor and the marsh is hard on exterior wood and fasteners. Rot and rust show up first at trim, railings and porch framing.
