Bringing Your Myrtle Beach Vision to Life with Excellence
Lighthouse Contracting is your go-to partner right here in Myrtle Beach, SC, for just about any remodeling project you can dream up. We know what it’s like living near the coast — the humidity, the salt air, the way a summer storm can roll in off the Atlantic in minutes. That’s why our team specializes in transforming existing spaces and breathing new life into your property. Whether it’s a beach cottage off Ocean Boulevard or a family home near The Market Common, we’ve done it all. Honestly, we’ve seen it all too. From kitchens that just don’t flow right to bathrooms stuck in the 80s, we get how frustrating it can be when your space doesn’t match your lifestyle. Our team of skilled professionals is dedicated to redefining your living or working space. We make sure every remodel hits the mark — style, functionality, comfort, you name it. If you’ve been driving down Highway 17 and thinking, “Man, I wish my house worked better for us,” give us a call. We’re here to help Myrtle Beach homeowners turn that wish into reality.
Think about a kitchen remodel in the Carolina Forest area — you’re dealing with traffic, busy schedules, kids running around. The last thing you need is a contractor who drags their feet. We keep things moving. We’re straight-up with timelines, budgets, and what you can expect. And because we’re a general contractor and development specialist, we handle the whole shebang. No middlemen, no finger-pointing between subs. Just one team, one goal: making your Myrtle Beach property better than you imagined.
We hear this a lot: “Can you really handle both my condo near the Boardwalk and my rental property out near Surfside Beach?” Yes, we can. New construction, remodels, accessory dwelling units (ADUs), multi-family projects, window installations — it’s all in our wheelhouse. And with the growth Myrtle Beach has seen in the last few years, we’ve been busier than ever helping locals keep up with demand. New neighborhoods popping up near International Drive? We’re there. Older homes in the historic district needing some love? We’re on it. No project is too big or too small.
Here’s what that means for you: when you work with us, you get a crew that knows Myrtle Beach inside and out. We know which permits the city requires, which inspectors know their stuff, and which materials hold up best against our coastal climate. We don’t guess — we know. That saves you time, money, and headaches. Plain and simple.
So whether you’re looking at a full home renovation in the Grand Dunes or just swapping out old windows in a rental off 21st Avenue North, we’re ready to help. Request your free estimate today. Let’s talk about what your Myrtle Beach property could become.

Frequently Asked Questions About Myrtle Beach Construction
We hear this a lot from folks in Myrtle Beach: “How do I know if my home is ready for a remodel or needs new construction?” It’s a fair question. Whether you’re living near the Market Common or down by the Murrells Inlet line, the truth is, Myrtle Beach has its own quirks. Humidity, salt air, and the occasional hurricane scare—they all take a toll. That’s why we’ve put together this FAQ. It’s built around real questions from Myrtle Beach homeowners and business owners. No fluff, just straight answers.
1. How long does a new construction project usually take in Myrtle Beach?
Great question. Honestly, it depends on the size and scope. But here in Myrtle Beach, we factor in things like Horry County permitting timelines and the weather—especially during hurricane season. For a typical single-family home in a neighborhood like The Dunes Club or off 707, we’re looking at 6 to 12 months. Multi-family projects near the Boardwalk? They can take a bit longer because of site logistics. Our team will always give you a realistic timeline upfront.
2. What’s the first step for a kitchen or bathroom remodel in Myrtle Beach?
Start with a coffee—or sweet tea, if that’s your thing. Then give us a call. Seriously, the first step is a sit-down. We’ll talk about your vision, your budget, and the specific challenges of your Myrtle Beach home. For example, older condos along Ocean Boulevard might have load-bearing walls we need to work around. Newer builds near Carolina Forest are usually more straightforward. Either way, we’ll do a walkthrough and give you a no-pressure estimate.
3. Do you handle window installation for older homes in Myrtle Beach?
Absolutely. And we should. Older homes in Myrtle Beach—we’re talking those charming bungalows around the historic district or in Socastee—often have single-pane windows that leak air and drive up energy bills. We install energy-efficient windows that stand up to the coastal climate. Whether it’s a full replacement for a home on 21st Avenue North or a few windows for a rental property near the airport, we’ve got you covered.
4. What’s an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) and why would I want one in Myrtle Beach?
An ADU is basically a small, separate living space on your property—think a guest house above the garage or a tiny home in the backyard. In Myrtle Beach, they’re becoming popular for a few reasons. Renting one out near Coastal Carolina University gives you extra income during the school year. Or maybe you want a private space for family when they visit for the bike rallies or the golf tournaments. We build ADUs that match your main house and meet Horry County codes.
5. How does Lighthouse Contracting handle the permitting process in Myrtle Beach?
We do it for you. We know the Horry County Zoning Department and the City of Myrtle Beach building codes inside and out. Myrtle Beach has specific rules about flood zones, setback requirements, and elevation—especially close to the Intracoastal Waterway. We don’t just hand you a stack of papers and say “good luck.” We submit the plans, follow up with the inspectors, and make sure everything passes. You focus on your life; we focus on the paperwork.
6. Can you help with multi-family construction near Myrtle Beach’s main attractions?
You bet. Whether you’re looking to build a duplex off Highway 17 Bypass or a four-unit complex near Broadway at the Beach, we’ve done it. Multi-family projects here come with their own set of challenges—parking requirements, sound ordinances, and stormwater management. We’ve worked on projects near the Myrtle Beach Pelicans stadium and along Restaurant Row. Our team understands the local flow and can get you through the process smoothly.
7. What makes Lighthouse Contracting different from other contractors in Myrtle Beach?
It’s our local approach. We’re not some out-of-town company that rushes in and rushes out. We’re based in Charleston, but we’ve built a real presence in Myrtle Beach. We work with local suppliers, know the subs who know the area, and understand what Myrtle Beach homeowners need. Sea salt eats away at certain materials—we know what holds up. A sudden summer storm can flood a job site—we plan for it. You’re not just getting a contractor; you’re getting a partner who lives and breathes coastal construction.
Still have questions? Give us a call at +1 (843) 608-3904. We’re happy to talk about your Myrtle Beach project—no strings attached.
