About Stono Construction | Custom Builders in Charleston, SC
CUSTOM HOME BUILDING
HOME ADDITIONS
HOME REMODELING
Stono Construction was founded out of a shared belief that high-end residential building should be a deeply collaborative, face-to-face partnership. When we started the company, we chose a deliberate path: to remain “boutique by design.” We intentionally limit the number of active projects we take on each year so that our clients never get handed off to mid-level project managers or superintendents or remote customer service loops.
When you build a custom home or expand or remodel your property with Stono Construction, you are working directly with the owners of the company. We are fully licensed, bonded, and insured bringing local residential building experience to Downtown Charleston, South Mount Pleasant, West Ashley, James Island, Johns Island, and Wadmalaw.
Our Building Philosophy: Grounded in Local Realities
We know that a major custom build, structural addition, or whole-home remodel is one of the most significant financial investments your family will ever make. Our philosophy centers on removing the guesswork, managing your budget with total transparency, and executing your provided architectural plans with meticulous care.
Because we live and build exclusively in the Charleston Lowcountry, we don’t just understand structural engineering—we understand the local environment. From navigating the strict guidelines of neighborhood to managing flood compliance thresholds and marshfront setbacks, we provide the steady, on-site leadership your project requires.
