Water doesn't stop at the drywall—it moves into framing, subfloors, and insulation before you see it. We handle hurricane damage, flood rebuilds, and insurance restoration in North Myrtle Beach with a sequenced approach.
Storm damage typically means wind-driven intrusion, impact, or roof failure. Water damage can come from storms, plumbing failures, or slow leaks that went unnoticed for months. The repair approach differs by source and how far the moisture spread. We evaluate both before recommending a scope—because restoring finishes over wet framing just delays a bigger problem.
If water reached subfloors, joists, or wall framing, structural repairs need to happen before drywall goes back up. We identify that during the assessment so the rebuild is sequenced correctly. For framing-focused work, see Structural Repair.
Repair and restoration scopes vary—these are common rebuild items after damage occurs.

Common questions after water intrusion or storm damage in North Myrtle Beach.
Yes. Hurricane damage repair is one of our recurring scope categories on the Grand Strand. We handle roof tarping, dry-in, water intrusion remediation, drywall and flooring replacement, structural framing repair, and full rebuild work. After a major storm we prioritize properties that need emergency stabilization first, then move into permanent repairs as soon as scopes are documented. Send photos and a description to get started.
Yes. We document repair scopes with photos and written estimates that meet typical carrier requirements, coordinate with adjusters during scope review, and execute the repair plan against the approved scope. Most homeowner policies cover sudden storm damage; flood damage from rising water typically requires a separate NFIP or private flood policy. We work within the approved scope and flag supplements when demolition reveals additional damage that wasn't visible during the initial inspection.
Yes. We evaluate the full extent of damage—not just what's visible—and rebuild affected areas in the correct sequence: structural and moisture repairs first, then finish restoration. Send us photos and a description to get started.
Yes, and it's more common than most homeowners expect—especially in coastal homes where humidity keeps moisture in place longer. Prolonged exposure weakens joists, subfloor, and framing before visible rot appears. If structural components are affected, we sequence those repairs before any finish work goes back in.
We can handle urgent repair scopes depending on availability and conditions. The fastest path to getting help is sending us photos of the damage with a description of what happened and which areas are affected—we'll respond with realistic next steps.
We can document repair scopes and provide written estimates based on visible conditions, which most carriers require. Claim requirements vary by insurer—we'll coordinate the repair plan to align with the approved scope once you have it.
Stop the source if you can, photograph everything before anything is moved or dried out, and don't cover wet areas with new finishes—moisture trapped behind drywall or flooring causes mold and structural rot. Then contact a contractor to assess what actually got affected.

"We recently had our bathroom completely remodeled by Baldwin Builders, and they did an absolutely amazing job! From the initial consultation to the final walkthrough, the entire team was professional, communicative, and attentive to every detail. They stayed on schedule, kept the worksite clean every day, and minimized disruptions to our home. We couldn’t be happier with the results and highly recommend Baldwin Builders!!"
Tina Gibbins
"We were referred to Baldwin Builders by a friend and are so pleased. Our newly purchased vacation condo needed to be completely painted, bedroom flooring replaced to match existing, a new kitchen fixture and desk area built. George walked the property, gave great suggestions and had a proposal to us in a few days. His communication with calls and photos and his responsiveness was fantastic. They matched the existing flooring perfectly and made my workspace vision come to fruition. If you want quality work done, call Baldwin Builders."
Bill Baker
"We recently purchased an older home in SC knowing some work would be required before leaving our home state. We turned to our many long-term acquaintances in the area for contractor recommendations. Repeatedly, Baldwin Builders came up on the top of every list. Baldwin Builders was sensitive to our absence during the project and contacted us almost daily with project status and solutions to any unforeseen challenges. I would characterize Baldwin Builders as a company of uncompromising integrity and pro-active communicators."
Phillip Wisdom
"Baldwin Builders recently remodeled our bathrooms, and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome. From the initial consultation to the final walkthrough, their team was professional, responsive, and detail-oriented. They helped us choose modern fixtures, updated the flooring, and improved the overall layout. The transformation is incredible—our bathrooms now feel like a high-end spa. Highly recommend Baldwin Builders for any remodeling needs!"
Vincent Padavano
"I have nothing but great things to say about Baldwin Builders. I had a guest bathroom remodel done by them and it turned out amazing. They paid attention to detail, cleanliness and finished the job within a short/appropriate amount of time. I would definitely recommend this young, professional, up-incoming business to anyone for home repair/updating needs."
Thomas Veith
"I hired Baldwin Builders to do a full renovation on my beach vacation rental and have nothing but great things to say. Their head sales guy, George, was with me through the entire project displaying perfect communication. He went above and beyond to hold everyone accountable and shared my vision as if it was his own. Larson, the owner, delivered my estimate and acted in my best interest throughout the entire project displaying honesty and transparency."
James Moye
"George is extremely accommodating & professional. Great communication! Also met with his brother Larson. Nice guy & it’s very impressive they created such an excellent business together. I needed a sub floor from recent demo go bad & they got on it & handled so quick. I’m continuing my relationship with these 2 brothers & crew."
Thomas Neat
"I don’t know where to begin explaining how happy I am with my sunroom. It was a screened porch and I said I wanted a room to use all year round with a view of the pond behind me. Beyond my expectations. George, Larson, and crew worked fast, kept me up to date, treated my family and even my pets with respect. I will not hesitate to call them if I have another project."
Andrew Zaloom
"I could not be happier with the quality and service that both Larson and George provided. From the initial consultation to delivery, they were thorough, honest, and attentive. Within a few days, they were able to do an extensive door replacement and structural repair. I own several rental properties in the area and this was the first group I’ve worked with that did not over promise and under deliver."
Gina Thomas
"After building a new house and being left without shower doors for our walk in luxury tile shower it was a major burden. We researched and looked for a couple of weeks to find a builder to install shower doors and Baldwin Builders came in showed us our options for our price range. Larson is extremely efficient and knowledgeable. The installation was easy and perfection. If you are looking for a contractor who cares and is professional, Baldwin Builders is your company."
Ed Cristina
"Hired Baldwin Builders last minute to build a staircase for my porch. We needed it done quickly. I gave them pictures on a Friday and it was DONE Monday!! AND it was absolutely perfect; exactly what we wanted and hundreds less than the other 2 companies we called. Ask for George or Larson: both were great!!"
