We serve the building, construction and renovation needs of the Lowcountry.

 
 

The Team at Level Building Projects has a combined 30 years of construction experience that translate to a thorough understanding of building and renovating, from the first steps with an architect, through the final building inspections. 

We are general contractors who pride ourselves on keeping client relationships strong with our commitment to constant communication. Answering the phone and returning messages is a top priority. 

Many clients can be overwhelmed when researching and progressing through building and renovation projects. Level Building Projects guides clients through the many decisions, and demands good work from ourselves and our partners along the way so you can rest easy.

 

Level Building Projects was established in 2009, but our experience goes back much further...
