Anderson, South Carolina
Anderson is an established market where most of the housing was built in the second half of the twentieth century. That means the work is replacement and upgrade rather than repair, and the homes are large enough and old enough that the decisions actually matter.

The median Anderson home dates to 1975 and detached single-family houses dominate the stock. A house of that vintage is at the point where the original roof has already been replaced at least once, the windows are either original single-pane or an early replacement that has failed, and the HVAC system is on its second or third unit. The building envelope is usually sound, which makes energy-efficiency upgrades pay off here more reliably than in newer construction.
Anderson combines a history of damaging hail with a substantial mature tree canopy. The canopy is the part homeowners underestimate: limbs over a roof plane mean debris in valleys, clogged gutters, and moisture that does not dry, which shortens the life of otherwise sound shingles.
Residential permits inside the city limits go through the City of Anderson Building and Codes Department. We pull them; you do not chase them.

What that means for the work
Roofing
Most Anderson roofs we look at are on their second covering. That is the point to check the decking and the ventilation rather than simply layering on a third.
Windows
Mid-1970s homes often still have original single-pane units or a failed early replacement. Full-frame replacement with proper flashing is frequently the right answer where inserts were used before.
HVAC
A 1970s house with a sound envelope is a good candidate for a properly sized heat pump. The savings are real when the load calculation is done rather than assumed.
Remodeling
Kitchens and baths of this era were built around plumbing and electrical that no longer meets how people live. Expect panel and supply-line work inside the scope.
