Local expertise
Why Nesconset masonry has to be built right.
Nesconset is a mid-Smithtown hamlet of 1960s–1980s colonials and split-levels on generous lots, with a growing share of newer custom builds. Masonry work here skews toward front-entrance upgrades — stone-veneer facades, bluestone stoops, and paver walkways — along with retaining walls on the sloped lots and chimney rebuilds on the older brick homes.
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.
Nesconset is Town of Smithtown jurisdiction. Sloped lots common in the northern half of the hamlet — retaining wall drainage and geogrid reinforcement matter more here than in flatter areas.
