Local expertise
Why Bohemia masonry has to be built right.
Bohemia is a compact Islip-township hamlet just south of Ronkonkoma, with a mix of postwar ranches, capes, and newer custom homes on well-established residential streets. It's a strong driveway market for us — a lot of the original driveways are hitting end of life at the same time, and Belgian-block aprons are the popular upgrade. Patio work skews toward mid-sized backyard builds with fire pits, seat walls, and integrated lighting rather than the estate-scale projects we do further east.
South Shore Islip neighborhoods sit close to the Great South Bay with high water tables, salt air and heavy coastal storms. Water that sits behind a wall or under a step is the number one enemy of masonry here.
Expect post-war ranches, expanded capes and a lot of post-Sandy raised homes. Raised homes mean taller entry stairs and landings, which we build with poured footings, block cores and stone or paver treads.
Salt and constant moisture eat through weak mortar fast. We use air-entrained concrete, polymer-modified mortar and sealed caps so stoops, piers and walls survive the bay climate.
Bohemia is Town of Islip jurisdiction — permits, curb cuts, and driveway apron work go through the Islip building department. Soils are well-draining across most of the hamlet.
