30 www.IsleOfPalmsMagazine.com | www.ILoveIOP.com | www.IOPmag.com Generations of Quality Beach Construction Company T hree generations of superior customer service and hands-on work have established the Beach Construction Company as a leader along the Lowcountry coastline. Co-owned by father and son, Richard and Troy Walters, the first construction jobs began for the company with Harvey Walters in 1967. “We keep up with a lot of homes, including ones we originally built when my father started the company,” explained Richard, who is extremely personable and known as the “master carpenter.” “Many of our clients just tell us to keep the key so that we can make repairs. Our clients trust us because we have always been reliable.” With the current market trend of high-end, luxury homes utilized as rental locations on the Isle of Palms, Sullivan’s Island and Mount Pleasant, Beach Construction Company has been working harder than ever. “We fell right into the market as we have worked remodels and new construction all along. My father is 90 years old, and he learned carpentry from his father. By Stacy Domingo We are generations of carpenters that wear our trade proudly on our sleeves,” boasted Richard. “My father, Harvey, established a good name, and my son and I keep it.” Troy agrees. “I believe we provide the greatest customer service and communication. We will always return a phone call quickly, and that goes a long way. Many of our clients hire us over the phone simply based on our reputation, and we won’t meet in person until later.” Remodeling can vary from completely renovating the bare bones of a home to a project as unique as the addition of a swimming pool. Custom home builds with Beach Construction Company truly means a custom home. “We specialize in single-family-style homes, and Troy and I will actually work on the job; we aren’t ones to farm out the job. We are working contractors. That way, when our client calls, we can answer questions on the spot,” explained Richard. “We are on-hand, involved in each job, and, that way, we know everything is done right.” If you’re interested in speaking with Troy or Walter directly regarding new construction or remodeling, simply call, and you will receive a fast response. From there, they will assess your inquiry, set up a meeting to decide a rough figure for cost and lastly, a contract. “It is during our on-site walk-through where our honesty and reputation comes into play,” finished Troy. “We do a lot of work for people who live out of town, and we definitely communicate what needs to be done. Our honesty definitely sets us apart from other companies in the area, and people know they can hire us for a job and then go home.” Richard, Troy and their team want to turn your dreams into reality.
