  • Flood Zone Construction: Many Hampton Bays properties are in FEMA Flood Zones. We ensure renovations meet strict elevation requirements and use flood-resistant materials to comply with federal and local laws.
 
  • Wetland Protection: Projects near the water often involve the Conservation Board. We handle the necessary approvals to ensure local ecosystems are protected.
 
  • Salt Air Durability: We select materials that can withstand the corrosive effects of salt air and high humidity common near the Canal and beaches.

Frequently Asked Questions by Hampton Bays Homeowners

──

Do I need a permit for a shed in Hampton Bays?

Yes. In the Town of Southampton, accessory structures must meet specific placement rules. We construct every project with strict adherence to these zoning codes.


Why does my survey need to be less than a year old?

The Southampton Building Department is very strict about accurate property lines. They generally reject applications with surveys older than one year to ensure no unpermitted changes have been made to the lot since the last map was drawn.


What is a HERS rating?

The Home Energy Rating System (HERS) measures your home's energy efficiency. Major renovations or new builds in Southampton often need to meet a specific score to pass code. We build to these standards to ensure compliance.


Are you licensed to work in Hampton Bays?

Yes. We hold both a valid Suffolk County License (H-55867) and the required Town of Southampton Home Improvement License.
