Hurricane Shutters for Longs, SC
Longs is a growing unincorporated community in northern Horry County, positioned along Highway 9 between North Myrtle Beach and the NC state line. Its rapidly expanding residential base faces the same Horry County hurricane wind-load requirements as the oceanfront — and the same real storm risk.
Northern Horry County’s Trusted Storm Shutter Installer
Longs may sit a dozen miles from the Grand Strand shoreline, but Horry County building code wind-load requirements don’t stop at the Intracoastal Waterway. The same hurricane-force winds that batter North Myrtle Beach and Cherry Grove carry dangerous debris and sustained wind speeds well into northern Horry County. Homes along Highway 9, in the Longs Town Center area, and in the growing subdivisions south toward Little River all benefit from permanent, rated storm protection.
We are OSHA-30 certified, SC licensed GC, and carry a 7-year workmanship warranty. We serve Longs as part of our broader northern Horry County coverage, with installations regularly in Little River, Cherry Grove Beach, North Myrtle Beach, and Calabash just across the NC line. Call +18438681390.
