“Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction and skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives.” William A. Foster
The award winning Hammerhead Custom Builders name is at the forefront of the local custom home building industry in the South Carolina Lowcountry.With a meticulous eye for detail and a passion for helping people obtain their dreams, Hammerhead Custom Builders has become one of the most well respected builders in the area. The company’s reputation was created quite simply through quality craftsmanship and homeowner satisfaction.
With every project, Hammerhead Custom Builders continues to set the benchmark for excellence through detailed supervision and efficient management with a balance of innovative design, state-of-the-art technologies and unsurpassed craftsmanship. Every Hammerhead Custom Builders project – custom or speculative home, addition, remodel, or renovation – is built to stringent standards.
Jake Gartner, CEO and Owner of Hammerhead Custom Builders takes pride in his company and the fact that he personally spends most of his days out of the office “in the field” and “on-site”. He explains the Hammerhead Custom Builders business philosophy: “From design to final walk-through, we supervise every aspect of the building process, only use quality materials, and our sub-contractors are the best in the business. You can be confident that your new or renovated home will be built to the same standards of excellence as the homes on which we have built our reputation”.
Building custom homes – through new construction, renovations, and additions – is what we do. Dedicating ourselves to customer satisfaction – through careful planning, the use of high grade materials, and quality in execution – is how we do it. This talented team, with its roots firmly planted in the complex renovation field, tackles projects of all types and sizes. Hammerhead Custom Builders has a full complement of people working hand in hand to create a seamless outcome. No matter where you are in the process, it’s never too early – or too late – to call us.
Whether your vision is sketched on the back of a cocktail napkin, or you’ve already engaged an architect and are ready to build, we can help you put a smart plan in place, and we know how to implement it. When plans change, we know how to adapt. Our goal is always minimum disruption to you and your family. That’s why so many of our clients return, job after job, and invite us back into their homes.
We’re dedicated to complete transparency throughout the life of the project. You’ll always know where to turn with questions throughout the process. You can always reach our office at 843-368-6624 or via email at info@hammerheadbuilders.net. Thorough communication is not just our business philosophy, it’s who we are.
We’ve used Hammerhead for several renovation projects as well as a pool installation. We are consistently pleased with the work and craftsmanship. Tyler is easy and fun to work with and all of the subs that Hammerhead uses are professional, courteous, and conscientious about their work. We will continue to Hammerhead whenever possible.
Work performed was great – neat, on time, and meticulous. Very detailed oriented! All the projects we did with Hammerhead were either on or below budget and met all expectations. We would not use anyone else and recommend them to anyone who needs remodeling and renovations. They really care.
Jake has always been a good friend of mine. The work was very good, and I would expect nothing less from him or his company. As everyone knows I have high expectations for all my projects, and he knew this and met all of them. I was very happy with the finished product and that is saying a lot. I would recommend any clients to expect nothing but the best.
We were referred to Hammerhead from two separate friends who had multiple successful projects with Hammerhead. We have now finished our third renovation/expansion project with Hammerhead. The only comparisons we have are the nightmare stories and missed deadlines from other Hilton Head friends who did not use Hammerhead. We have been very happy with Hammerhead’s and their partner subcontractors’ professionalism. For each project we have raised our expectations, and we are happy to report Hammerhead continues to meet them. From initial meetings with Jake and Tyler on how our projects would roll out, to design options with Christa, to thorough invoicing, we have been very happy. Hammerhead to us is a partner in our projects. Many times we asked the question of Jake/Tyler: if this was your house, your family, what decision would you make.
Jake is the best! Great quality work, always on time and dependable. Always willing to take after hour calls for emergencies – never hides behind the cell phone! Superb work and a pleasure to have on the property. We give him the highest recommendation possible and trust him 100%.

We used Jake for a Villa remodel in Sea Pines. While our job was not the largest, we felt like he was personally involved in the entire process. He communicated along the way and kept us informed of deadlines. Most importantly, when a problem came up, he took ownership and quickly worked to a resolution. It is hard to ask more than that. We would definitely recommend Jake to others.
