Smithtown mixes North Shore slopes near the Nissequogue River with flat inland lots, and its clay-and-sand soils hold spring water longer than the South Shore.
Classic colonials, high-ranches and estate homes in St. James, Head of the Harbor and Nissequogue. Brick and stone stoops, stone veneer columns and formal walkways are what we build most.
Older brick stoops here often have hollow cores that trap water and spall in winter. We rebuild with solid cores and proper pitch so water sheds off, not into, the masonry.
Head of the Harbor falls under Town of Smithtown 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.
