Local expertise
Why Brentwood masonry has to be built right.
Brentwood is one of the largest hamlets in Islip township — dense residential streets of postwar capes, ranches, and split-levels, plus newer townhouse and condo developments. Driveway repaves are the biggest single category we do here; a lot of the original 1950s–70s asphalt has aged out at the same time. Paver walkways, front stoops, and modest patio builds round out the residential work, and we also do commercial-lot paving and seal-coat work for Brentwood businesses off Suffolk Ave and Commack Road.
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.
Brentwood is Town of Islip jurisdiction. Standard Islip permitting for driveway aprons, curb cuts, and retaining walls over 4 ft.
