OUTDOOR WOODWORKS FOR THE LOWCOUNTRY
About
Marsh hen
Built for this place.
Built to last here.
Marsh Hen Co. is a Lowcountry outdoor woodworks company founded on a simple belief: the spaces surrounding your home deserve the same care and quality as the home itself.
We work with homeowners across Sullivan's Island, Isle of Palms, Mount Pleasant, the Charleston Peninsula, Johns Island, Folly Beach, West Ashley, and the surrounding communities — people who aren't looking for a stock product and a fast install. They're looking for something built right, built beautifully, and built to hold up against every season the coast can throw at it.
How We Work
We start by learning your property, your vision, and your goals. No pressure, just a straightforward talk about what you want built.
A Conversation
You'll receive a clear, detailed quote. No surprises, no hidden costs — just an honest number for quality work.
Your Estimate
We shape the details together, materials, dimensions, and finish, until the plan feels exactly right for your space.
The Design
Handbuilt on site, start to finish, by the people you met on day one. This is where the craft of Marsh Hen shows.
We Build
"The marsh hen builds its nest with intention — weaving each blade of grass carefully, placing it just above the waterline, engineering it to endure. When the tide rises and takes it, the marsh hen rebuilds. Same care. Same craft. Every time."
We're craftspeople first
That's the spirit we bring to every project. We're craftspeople first — passionate about woodworking, deeply tied to Charleston, and committed to doing work that keeps this place as beautiful as we found it. Every fence line we set, every gate we hang, every structure we build is a reflection of that.
Not mass-produced. Not rushed. Handbuilt for the Lowcountry, by people who love it.
Our Services

Gates, Arbors, & Entry Features
The entry to your property is the first impression of everything beyond it. Our custom gates and entry arbors are built to be as striking as they are functional — hardware, joinery, and finish chosen to stand up to the elements for years to come.

PergoLas, Arbors, & Shade Structures
Outdoor living in the Lowcountry means shade, airflow, and spaces that invite you outside. Our pergolas and arbors are designed to become the centerpiece of a yard — structures that add character and extend the seasons you can enjoy your outdoor space.

Fencing
A well-built fence does more than mark a boundary — it defines a property, creates privacy, and sets a standard for everything behind it. We design and build fences that look like they've always belonged where they stand.

Custom Wood Privacy Fencing
Picket & Estate Fencing
Custom & Specialty Woodwork
Some of our best work starts with a project that doesn't fit a category. If it lives outside your home and involves wood, we want to build it. We bring the same standard of craft to specialty projects that we bring to every fence and pergola we've ever built.
