As back-to-school season begins, parents may be thinking about living in a new school zone in the coming years.
With the start of August, “summer” is quickly coming to a close and the back-to-school rush is starting. Parents are ready for a break and the students are trying to hold on to the last minutes of sleeping in and having no pressure to study. A school schedule for local students is at the bottom of this post.
Lots of thoughts are going through the minds of parents and students across the Lowcountry of South Carolina. Some of those thoughts may even be around future school years, when transitions to middle and high school campuses are the cause for anxiety. It may even mean moving from one school district to another to give children a path to a brighter academic and/or athletic future.
If these thoughts are on your mind, consider the options of building a home or buying one — in your school district of choice — and making it into the home you desire. The design and construction professionals at B. Chaney Improvements in Awendaw, SC can help you with these options. They work with clients to build the home they want or renovate existing dwellings into the home they need. B. Chaney President and CEO Brad Chaney has helped families tackle nearly every situation since founding the company nearly three decades ago.
Building, renovating and adding an addition
Brad works with every client on every project. His building projects are a collaboration of the minds; the client’s mind — with thoughts and ideas — and his experience and expertise. The goal is come together on a finished project that meets every need and every want, inside of budget constraints. This goes for brand new home projects and upgrades to an existing home. 
The latter is often a great option, especially if you want to move into new school district and need to buy rather than build. The B. Chaney team has completed whole-house renovation projects, like the one pictured here. However, a kitchen upgrade, bathroom remodel or small addition is all that is needed to make a house into a home.
