Housing stock in Charleston
35% of roughly 75,826 housing units predate 1980, and 44% of occupied homes are rented. Age of stock matters for water losses because older assemblies dry more slowly and older supply lines fail more often — and tenure matters because who pays for remediation turns on it. Who pays →

Charleston restoration: common questions
How many restoration firms are there in Charleston?
We hold verified credential records for 6 firms in Charleston. That is a count of what we could verify, not a count of every firm operating here — a firm we hold no record for is simply one we could not check.
What are Charleston restoration firms certified in?
The credentials most often on record here are WRT (Water Damage Restoration Technician, 6 firms), AMRT (Applied Microbial Remediation Technician, 5 firms), ASD (Applied Structural Drying Technician, 5 firms), FSRT (Fire and Smoke Damage Restoration Technician, 5 firms). Each was checked against IICRC's own registry rather than the firm's marketing.
Does Charleston require a licensed mold contractor?
South Carolina runs no mold-specific licensing programme — only five US jurisdictions do — so there is no state mold licence to check here. General contractor registration may still apply to rebuild work. IICRC certification is the credential a homeowner can verify, and it is what every listing here is checked against.
Is older housing a factor in Charleston?
35% of Charleston's roughly 75,826 housing units were built before 1980, and 11% before 1940. Older stock more often carries galvanised or cast-iron supply lines, cavity constructions that dry slowly, and materials that predate modern vapour control — which is context for a water loss, not a prediction about any particular building.
