Common questions about electrical in Charleston

Who issues the electrical permit in Charleston?

City of Charleston. The licensed subcontractor pulls it, in their own name.

Because Charleston sits in Charleston County, its inspection schedule and fee table are City of Charleston's and not the neighbouring town's — worth confirming before anyone promises you a start date, since that is where most Lowcountry schedules actually slip.

What should I know about Charleston specifically?

Downtown work also runs through the Board of Architectural Review. That is why a quote for Charleston is not a quote for the next town over: the housing stock and the ground under it decide most of what the job actually involves, and City of Charleston decides the rest.

Do you work in Charleston regularly?

Yes, and City of Charleston is the permit authority we deal with there, which matters more than the drive: the inspection queue in Charleston County is what decides a realistic start date, not how far away we are.
