Where to begin.
Whole-home renovations
Reconsider an existing home as a whole, from layout and structure to finishes.
Waterfront planning
Discuss site constraints, drainage, shoreline considerations and city approvals before committing to a design.
Your Tega Cay consultation
Before the architecture, understand the property.
A Tega Cay building conversation should begin with the site rather than a borrowed floor plan. Collect the survey, available boundary information, recorded restrictions and any previous permits. Ask the appropriate professionals to evaluate slope, drainage, construction access, utilities and the relationship between the proposed home and neighboring properties. A wooded or waterfront setting is a design opportunity, but it does not establish a right to remove trees, change the shoreline or build a dock.
Separate what you need from what you hope to add. Record bedrooms, everyday gathering spaces, accessibility priorities, storage and outdoor living goals, then identify the decisions that depend on feasibility. Discuss the scope of preconstruction work, who obtains approvals, how allowances and changes are documented, and what a proposed budget includes. A concept, a preliminary estimate and a signed construction agreement are different documents; do not treat one as a promise made by another.
What to bring to the conversation
- Survey and available site records
- A written room and lifestyle brief
- Renovation history where an existing home is involved
- Questions about approvals, allowances and change orders

Common questions
- When should a builder see the lot?
- Before you buy it, if possible. Slope, trees, setbacks, drainage and access shape what can be built and what it will cost.
- Can you build on a waterfront Tega Cay lot?
- Often, but shoreline rules, dock permits, covenants and topography vary by property. Each lot needs its own review.
- Renovate or rebuild?
- It depends on the structure, the lot and your goals. Comparing professional estimates for both paths makes the decision clear.
