South Carolina Insurance

Local South Carolina insurance coverage that fits your family & business needs, with a team that knows your name.

Homeowners, wind, and flood insurance across South Carolina

Elye Insurance has helped families protect their homes since 2010, and we serve South Carolina households and businesses from our office in Mission Viejo, California. From Charleston and the Lowcountry to Columbia, Greenville, and Rock Hill, South Carolina homes face hurricanes, flooding, and severe storms. We shop multiple carriers, explain your options in plain English or Spanish, and review your coverage every year.

South Carolina's homeowners market

Coastal homes often carry a separate hurricane or wind deductible, and carriers look closely at roof age and construction on every South Carolina home. When private carriers won't write wind coverage near the coast, the South Carolina Wind and Hail Underwriting Association provides it, and the SC Safe Home program has offered grants for wind mitigation. We also cover condos, rental properties, renters, and high-value homes.

Hurricanes, flooding, and earthquake

Hurricane Hugo (1989) remains one of the state's worst storms, and the 2015 floods damaged homes across Columbia and the Midlands. Charleston also has earthquake history: the 1886 Charleston earthquake was one of the strongest in the eastern U.S. A standard homeowners policy does not cover flood or earthquake, so we quote both separately.

Auto, boat, and business coverage

South Carolina requires auto liability limits of at least $25,000 per person, $50,000 per accident, and $25,000 for property damage, plus uninsured motorist coverage. We round out your protection with auto, boat, and umbrella coverage. For business owners, we also write business insurance, from business owners policies to commercial property, along with contractors insurance and trucking.

Where we work in South Carolina

We serve Charleston, Columbia, North Charleston, Mount Pleasant, Rock Hill, Greenville, Summerville, Goose Creek, Sumter, Florence, Spartanburg, and Hilton Head Island, along with communities across the state.

    Kyle was fantastic to work with when helping me with both landlord insurance and umbrella insurance. He is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and really knows his stuff. He took the time to explain my coverage options clearly, answered … More all of my questions, and made sure I understood what would best fit my needs. His expertise and attention to detail gave me confidence that I was making the right decisions to protect my properties and assets. I highly recommend Kyle to anyone looking for insurance guidance from someone who is experienced, trustworthy, and genuinely helpful.

    Elye Insurance rocks! Dillon is the most knowledgeable and helpful insurance agent we have ever worked with. His attention to detail and quick response to calls and emails is exceptional.

How We Help

We believe in providing top-notch insurance products and services to our clients, and that requires working with the best financial institutions available.

Most people collect insurance one piece at a time: a general liability policy here, an auto policy there, a business policy from someone else. We take a more holistic approach. Because we write a full book of coverage across your entire commercial insurance needs, we can look at the whole picture, see where things overlap or leave gaps, and help it all work together.

For your business life and employees, that means your business operations, your property, your employees, your vehicles, and the umbrella coverage that ties them together, along with specialty needs. For South Carolina business property owners, it also means real guidance on earthquake and wildfire exposure, the FAIR Plan, and the difficult market many of us are navigating.
