Why Central Islip masonry has to be built right.
APM O'Neill & Sons works throughout Central Islip, NY, a central Suffolk community under Town of Islip jurisdiction. Our crews handle retaining walls, front stoops and steps, chimney rebuilds and repointing, stone and brick veneer, and full paver patios and driveways for Central Islip homeowners. We've been building across Suffolk County for 35 years out of our Medford yard, and every job is run by our own crew — no subcontracted finish work. Free on-site estimates, licensed under # 58161-H, and financing available on most projects.
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.
Central Islip falls under Town of Islip permitting. Suffolk County frost depth is 42 inches, so every footing we pour reaches below that line. We evaluate grade, soil drainage, and runoff on-site before quoting, and detail drainage where the yard holds water in spring.
