We work across the South Shore of western Suffolk County, from Babylon east to Islip. The housing is not the same from one town to the next, and neither is the work, so we have written up what we actually see in each.
If you are between two of these, call and ask. If we cannot help we will usually know someone who can.
Our home village, and the oldest housing stock we work on. A large share of it predates 1929, which means plaster walls rather than drywall, original wood sash windows, and trim profiles that are no longer manufactured. Handyman services in Babylon Village
Overwhelmingly post-war and overwhelmingly hi-ranch. The split entry, the half-below-grade lower level and sixty-year-old interior doors account for most of what we are called out for, along with hardware that corrodes fast on the canal-side streets. Handyman services in West Islip
The most mixed housing on our list: Victorians and Foursquares on the same streets as 1960s Capes, and a lot of two-family and rental property toward downtown. We do both owner repairs and turnover work between tenants here. Handyman services in Bay Shore
A planned village from the early 1900s with Venetian-style canals and a high proportion of Tudors and Colonials. Almost nothing is a stock size, and because it is an incorporated village, exterior work can need approval that would not apply nearby. Handyman services in Brightwaters
The flood town. Canal streets sit barely above sea level, tidal flooding is routine, and since Sandy a great many houses have been lifted onto pilings. That creates repair needs you do not see anywhere else on the South Shore. Handyman services in Lindenhurst
Older and leafier than its neighbours, with Victorians, colonials and a run of one-off custom houses. The mature tree canopy means shaded elevations hold damp and fail years before the sunny side of the same house. Handyman services in Islip
