Home Remodeling
in Charleston

A midrange bathroom remodel in Charleston averages around $26,595, with homeowners recouping approximately 62.4% at resale, according to the 2025 Cost vs. Value Report. That estimate covers a new tub or shower, fixtures, vanity counter, flooring, and a standard white toilet.

West Shore Home installs non-porous, waterproof showers instead of ceramic tile, which makes a real difference in Charleston's humid climate, where mold and moisture are constant issues. Your actual cost will depend on your bathroom's size, the materials you choose, and how many components you're replacing. Non-standard layouts in older homes, accessibility features like grab bars or low-threshold showers, and fixture upgrades can also factor in. Contact West Shore Home for a free project estimate tailored to your home and your needs.

Yes. West Shore Home installs walk-in showers with low-threshold or barrier-free entry, anchored grab bars, built-in seating, and adjustable showerheads. These features are designed to reduce fall risk and make daily bathing easier for homeowners with mobility concerns or anyone planning to age in place. Charleston's elevated historic homes and multi-story layouts can make bathroom access especially challenging, and a walk-in shower conversion is one of the most practical upgrades for improving safety. West Shore Home's in-house crews handle the full conversion in days, not weeks, so as not to inconvenience you or your loved one.

Replacing 10 vinyl windows in Charleston averages around $21,094, according to the 2025 Cost vs. Value Report. If your home falls within South Carolina's wind-borne debris region, your replacement windows must meet the ASTM E1996 Large Missile Test standard under state building code. Impact-rated windows generally cost more than standard replacements, and this requirement applies to most properties on the peninsula and barrier islands. Homes in historic districts may also require Board of Architectural Review (BAR) approval before exterior work can proceed, adding time to the permitting process. West Shore Home handles these processes for you, installs impact-rated, ENERGY STAR® certified replacement windows, and offers flexible payment options (with approved credit).

West Shore Home installs impact-rated replacement windows throughout the Charleston metro and surrounding areas. Under the South Carolina Residential Code (Section R301.2.1.2), exterior glazing in buildings located in windborne debris regions must be protected from windborne debris, and that protection must meet the requirements of the Large Missile Test under ASTM E1886 and ASTM E1996. Based on the state's wind speed map, much of the Charleston area falls within these designated zones, and Charleston County Building Inspection Services confirms that building codes require protection for all new window installations in hurricane zones.

Our impact-rated window options include laminated glass with ratings up to DP-50 for coastal performance, tested to help resist wind pressure and impact from windborne debris under simulated storm conditions. Homeowners with impact-rated windows may also be eligible for wind mitigation discounts on their insurance premiums; however, you should check with your insurance provider for details on availability and eligibility. If your home is in a historic district under BAR jurisdiction, our team can help guide you through the permitting process, including historic district requirements.

A steel entry door replacement in Charleston averages around $2,425 and returns approximately $4,730 at resale, a 195.1% cost-recouped ratio, according to the 2025 Cost vs. Value Report. That estimate covers a basic steel door with a half-glass panel, factory-matched finish, new jambs, aluminum threshold, and a standard lockset.

Your actual cost depends on the material you choose (steel or fiberglass), glass and finish options, and whether your existing opening requires custom sizing. In Charleston, termite damage to the existing frame, non-standard openings in older homes, and the addition of a storm door can all affect the final quote. West Shore Home offers a full range of entry and storm door options, with flexible payment terms for qualified homeowners with approved credit.

Waterproof, moisture-resistant flooring is the practical choice for most Charleston homes. The area's high humidity, exposure to flooding, and salt air create conditions that cause traditional hardwood to warp and develop other deformities over time. West Shore Home offers three categories of flooring suited to coastal living: luxury vinyl plank (LVP), luxury vinyl tile (LVT), and engineered hardwood.

LVP and LVT are 100% waterproof, making them safe for ground floors, bathrooms, kitchens, and any space where moisture is a concern. Both are scratch-resistant and independently certified for indoor air quality, which matters when your home stays sealed with AC for months at a time. Engineered hardwood offers real wood warmth with better moisture resistance than solid hardwood, and it installs over most existing subfloors without the extensive prep that traditional hardwood requires. All three come in a range of styles that work with any home and aesthetic. Schedule a free design consultation with West Shore Home to see samples and get a quote.
