Jason Harris. Master Carpenter, 28 years building experience.
Currently building in
View all 15 service areasJason started framing production homes in 1997. That's where he learned speed and efficiency. He morphed into high-end custom builds where he learned quality and precision, and at 22 he was running multiple crews on whole neighborhoods.
In 2012 he opened his own carpentry contracting business: additions, major remodels, even roofing. Then he spent the next 14 years as a superintendent for high-end custom builders in Chicago, Asheville, and most recently Charleston, learning every side of construction beyond the carpentry he'd already mastered.
Seascape Homes is where it all comes back together.

Charleston Lowcountry focused
Built for coastal conditions
The decisions you can't see
are the ones we obsess over.
- 01
Carpenter-first
The bones come first. Framing and trim done in-house means every other trade lands on a true, square house.
- 02
Lowcountry-built
Elevation, salt, storm. We default to coastal-grade detailing on every project, not just the ones on the beach.
- 03
One point of accountability
You don't get passed between project managers. Jason runs the build, walks the site, and picks up the phone.

Finish that lasts
Custom cabinetry, real wood trim, hand-set tile. The finish details our clients keep coming back for.
Built across the Lowcountry,
photographed up close.
Jason ran our build like he was building it for himself. Every detail we asked about, he'd already thought through it twice. The carpentry alone is worth what we paid.
Questions we hear first
Straight answers on where we build, what we build, and how a project starts.
What areas does Seascape Homes build in?
Seascape Homes builds across the Charleston Lowcountry: Charleston, Mount Pleasant, Daniel Island, Isle of Palms, Sullivan's Island, James Island, Johns Island, Folly Beach, West Ashley, North Charleston, Summerville, Goose Creek, Hanahan, Moncks Corner, and Awendaw.
What does Seascape Homes build?
Ground-up custom homes, kitchen and bath remodels, additions, garages and outbuildings, pool houses and cabanas, and spec homes for investors. Seascape also works as a building consultant for owner-builders who want to manage their own project with an experienced builder on call.
Is Seascape Homes a licensed builder in South Carolina?
Yes. Seascape Homes LLC holds South Carolina Residential Builder license RBB 51694. Owner Jason Harris has 28 years in residential construction: 13 years in framing, custom trim, and cabinetry, then 14 years as a superintendent for custom home builders before starting Seascape Homes.
How much does it cost to build a custom home in Charleston?
It depends on the lot, the size and shape of the house, the finish level, and whether the site needs an elevated foundation. Seascape prices every project from an open-book scope after a first conversation and a site walk, so you see allowances, alternates, and what is driving the number. Our blog guide on the cost to build in Charleston walks through the main factors, and the affordable home builder page explains how we keep budgets tight without cutting corners.
Can Seascape help if I want to build my own home?
Yes. The building consultant service is for owner-builders who want to manage their own project but need a 30-year builder on call for the parts that matter: scoping, framing, inspections, and the decisions that are expensive to get wrong.
Does Seascape build in flood zones and on the coast?
Yes. Coastal-grade detailing for elevation, salt, and storm is the default on every Seascape project, including elevated homes, garages, and outbuildings on flood-zone lots on Daniel Island, Isle of Palms, Sullivan's Island, Folly Beach, and Johns Island.
Who will I actually deal with during the build?
Jason Harris. He runs the build, walks the site, and picks up the phone. You are not passed between project managers.
How do I get started?
Use the contact form to tell us the project type, timeline, and rough budget, or call (843) 955-5523. The process starts with a first conversation, then a site walk and feasibility check before any design or pricing work.
