Full service landscaping, hardscape, irrigation, lighting, and outdoor carpentry for homes on Sullivan's Island. Veteran owned, finished to a high standard, and backed by a satisfaction guarantee on every project.
Sullivan's Island is small, historic, and unmistakably upscale, a beach island where mature live oaks arch over quiet streets and every property carries a sense of place. The bar for craftsmanship here is high, and the clientele expects it. CHS Contracting handles the full outdoor project from one company, so you get one accountable team for design, hardscape, plantings, lighting, and irrigation rather than a parade of separate trades.
From the homes along Middle Street and I'On Avenue to the estates near Station 22 and Station 28, we build courtyard and estate gardens that feel at home on the island. That means premium native and salt tolerant material, detailed stone and paver work, and the kind of finishing touches that hold up to close inspection. We design with the island's character in mind, never against it.
Whether you want a private, layered courtyard garden, a refreshed entry under the oaks, or a full landscape, lighting, and irrigation package on an Atlantic Avenue property, we scope it, design it, and build it. Every project comes with a satisfaction guarantee, and estimates are always free.

Sullivan's Island is a narrow barrier island where salt air, sandy soil, and a mature maritime live oak canopy define nearly every yard, and those conditions drive every choice we make here.
Salt and sand are tough on the wrong plants, so we build island gardens around premium native and salt tolerant material that can take the exposure and still look refined. The oak canopy is the island's signature, and we treat it that way, designing around existing trees, protecting root zones during construction, and grading carefully so we never put a protected oak at risk. Drainage matters here too, since low spots and salt spray can punish a garden that is not planned with water in mind.
This is also an island that protects its character. Designs need to respect the historic streetscape and the tree protections that come with it, so we plan projects to enhance a property without fighting the neighborhood around it. The clientele here is discerning and expects top craftsmanship, from clean courtyard stonework to lighting that flatters the oaks at night, and that is the level we build to on every Sullivan's Island project.
