Kalman Construction — Custom Homes & Renovation in North Charleston, SC (Since 1988)
Kevin Kalman founded the company in 1988 on Nantucket Island, Massachusetts, where he spent eight years building custom homes for seasonal residents and restoring historic whaling captains’ houses in the island’s downtown core. In 1996 he relocated to Charleston with his wife Betsy and continued the custom-home work there. The project list since then has been published in Architectural Digest, Better Homes & Gardens, House Beautiful, and Southern Living.

Why it’s on home.renovation.reviews
Magazine features are marketing, but publications like Architectural Digest and Southern Living have editorial standards — projects are published because they photograph well and are architecturally documented, not because a builder paid for placement. That track record, combined with 35+ years of continuous operation in two demanding coastal markets, makes this a credible choice for high-end residential work in Charleston.
