Answer:For properties located in Unincorporated Charleston County, Awendaw, Hollywood, McClellanville, Meggett, Ravenel, Rockville, and Seabrook Island, the Building Inspection Services Department maintains copies of flood elevation certificates for all new construction and substantially improved structures.
If your structure was constructed in one of these jurisdictions since late 1970's, the Building Inspection Services Department may have an elevation certificate on file for your structure.
For structures where an elevation certificate is not available on file, a S.C. Registered Land Surveyor will need to survey the elevation of the structure and complete the flood elevation certificate form. Charleston County does not survey structures for the purpose of completing flood elevation certificates.
To obtain an elevation certificate on file for your structure email your request to BuildingServices@CharlestonCounty.org; including the address of property and/or tax map identification number and your contact information. A permit specialist will contact you regarding the elevation certificate and a researching fee will apply.
