Serving the South Carolina Lowcountry
Hale Development works out of its headquarters on East 1st North Street in Summerville, and from there we build across the Lowcountry — Charleston, North Charleston, Mount Pleasant, Goose Creek, and Moncks Corner. Wherever the project sits, you get one licensed, bonded, and insured builder accountable from the free evaluation to the day you get the keys.
Cities we build in
Each city and county carries its own permitting authority, flood requirements, and design review. We know the difference — and scope it in from day one.

In the Lowcountry, the permitting authority can change street to street — the Town of Summerville, Dorchester, Berkeley, or Charleston County, or a city building department of its own. Flood zones, elevation requirements, and historic-district review all shift with the parcel. A builder who knows which rulebook applies before design is final keeps your project out of a stall at submittal — which is why we scope the right reviews in from day one on every job we take.
