The South Carolina "Retainage Reform" bill, S. 365 was signed into law by Governor
Sanford on June 1, 2005. Retainage withheld
on state construction projects in South Carolina may not exceed 3.5%.
This applies to all projects awarded under South Carolina's Consolidated
Procurement Code. Subcontractors should know their rights and
inform prime contractors of the new law and understand that the law
prohibits the withholding of more than 3.5% retainage by the prime
contractor on all applicable projects.
