Design, permitting, build and clean-up handled by the same people. No finger-pointing.

Local and Accountable

We live and work in York County. Our reputation here is the only marketing we rely on.

Our story

Hearth & Hammer started in 2012 with a simple idea: homeowners deserve a builder who shows up when they say they will, explains what they are doing, and finishes what they start. That has not changed.

We began with decks and patios. As clients asked for more — an outdoor kitchen here, a retaining wall there, a kitchen remodel over the winter — we grew into a full hardscape, outdoor living and remodeling contractor serving Rock Hill, Fort Mill, Tega Cay, Lake Wylie, Clover, York, Indian Land and Lancaster.

What we believe

Your home is more than a building. It is where memories are made. That is why we commit to exceptional craftsmanship and to keeping you informed through every phase of your project — not just the pleasant ones.

Integrity

We honour every commitment. If something changes on site, you hear it from us first, with the cost implication stated plainly before any work continues.

Quality

From design to completion, we build things the way they should be built: proper base preparation, correct drainage, code-compliant framing, and materials chosen to survive South Carolina summers and winters.

Communication

You get a named point of contact, a realistic schedule, and an honest answer when weather or supply pushes a date. Your vision matters — we keep you in the loop so the process is stress-free.

Areas we serve

Rock Hill · Fort Mill · Tega Cay · Lake Wylie · Clover · York · Indian Land · Lancaster · and the greater York County, SC area, including nearby Charlotte, NC border communities.

How we work with you
