Contractors in Daufuskie Island

14 contractors serve Daufuskie Island. 9 are based in town.

Daufuskie has no bridge to the mainland, and the whole island has been a National Register historic district since 1982. Its historic houses are wood-frame on piers, built from the 1890s through the 1930s. (National Register nomination)

Most of the island's homes, roughly 650 by the Census Bureau's estimate, are newer than that, including the resort communities of Haig Point, Melrose and Bloody Point, and close to half have no year-round household.

Every job starts with getting there. Crews ride the ferry, and materials, equipment and debris go by barge, which the contractor arranges; a 2016 county presentation put one barge pull for waste removal at $1,300. Haig Point bans gas-powered vehicles. Not every contractor makes the trip, so book early and expect the logistics in the quote. Zoning and design follow the county's Daufuskie Island Code, and permits go through Beaufort County.
