Public Records Check
- Missing License Our automated search didn't find a license on file for Sea Island Residential with the South Carolina state licensing board. That doesn't mean the company is unlicensed. A license can be held under a different business name, registered too recently for us to match, or filed in a way our search didn't catch. We recommend confirming directly with the South Carolina state licensing board or asking the contractor for their license number.
- Registered Corporation The South Carolina Secretary of State listed Sea Island Residential as Active when we last checked on Jul 2, 2026, registered since 2019. You can confirm it's still current with the South Carolina Secretary of State.
- Business Address Sea Island Residential's listed address at 3226 Maybank Hwy, Unit E-7, Charleston, SC 29455 appears to be a business address. This means the company operates from a real, locatable address rather than a mailbox or PO box, which can make it easier to reach them or resolve issues. Many roofers legitimately work from a home address, so this doesn't speak to the quality of their work, license, or insurance.
- 3 Credentials Sea Island Residential holds these manufacturer certifications: CertainTeed ShingleMaster, VELUX Certified Installer, FORTIFIED Roofing Contractor. These show the company met a manufacturer's program requirements and may offer manufacturer-backed warranties, but they aren't independent quality audits. You can confirm current status with the manufacturer.
- Excellent Ratings Across the platforms we identified for Sea Island Residential (Google, Yelp, the Better Business Bureau), the blended average is 4.6 out of 5, which we label Excellent. This is a plain average of public customer ratings, not a RooferWatch score. A high average reflects past customers' experiences, not a guarantee of yours, so read the underlying reviews and weigh them yourself.
We verified 4/5 public records for Sea Island Residential. The more of a company's record you can check, the more informed your hiring decision.

Customer reviews of this roofing company are mixed. Several reviewers report positive experiences with roof installation, praising the quality of work, communication, and value. Reviewers describe the company as thorough, professional, and responsive to calls. Some customers note the company helped navigate insurance claims and offered fortified roof upgrades. However, one reviewer describes a spray foam insulation project where they claim the installed thickness fell significantly short of the contracted 3 inches, alleging the company delivered approximately 1 inch instead. This reviewer reports requesting additional payment and states the company refused further work to meet the original contract specifications, and that a promised lifetime warranty was never provided. The reviewer characterizes the experience as involving fraud and dishonesty.
