Thank you!

Is a window on the water side of your Lloyd Harbor house letting in a draft, or refusing to shut flat? Perhaps the door to your deck rumbles on its track. A tired seal, a bent arm or a worn roller is often the cause.

Twenty miles of shoreline

The village counts twenty miles of shoreline. Its waters include Long Island Sound, Lloyd Harbor and Cold Spring Harbor. If your home faces any of them, one side probably takes most of the wind and weather.

On a windy day, hold the back of your hand near the edges of each window on that side. If you feel moving air, the weatherstripping has likely flattened, and a new seal is often the fix. Book it at 516-841-5048.

Awning windows, casements and early sliders

Many of the village’s homes went up in the 1960s. Their windows may be casements that swing out, or awning windows hinged at the top. Many houses may also have a sliding glass door out to a deck or patio.

Over the years, casement hinges loosen and seals flatten. Slider rollers wear down, and the door starts to drag. A repair keeps each window’s original character, and it looks better when we are done.

Rules that reach further than next door

The village says its rules may involve more restrictions and permits than other nearby areas. Its own list names tree cutting, building on steep slopes, building height, setbacks from neighbors and docks. Changes to your house and property can also call for a permit.

Bring any plan for new openings or a different look to the Building Department before work starts.

Inspector, engineer, arborist or board

Depending on the job, an application may be read by the Building Inspector, the Village Engineer or the Village Arborist. Others go before the Permit Review Board or the Zoning Board. Village Hall is at 32 Middle Hollow Road.

The Building Department invites calls for guidance at (631) 549-2640. Ask which of those people or boards your plan goes to, and how long each one usually takes.

FAQ

Questions from Lloyd Harbor homeowners

What happens if work starts without the right permit?

The village warns that missing permits or approvals can mean delays, stop work orders, fines or added costs. A call before work starts takes the guessing out. We would rather start a job once you know where it stands.

The arms on our awning windows are bent, and the sash will not sit flat. Can new arms be fitted?

Often, yes. The arms and hinges on an awning window are parts that can be swapped. We check the frame too, since a soft corner can also keep the sash from closing.

The lever handle on our front door droops instead of sitting level. Is the lock failing?

Usually not. A spring inside the handle holds the lever level, and that spring can weaken or break. Often the spring or the handle can be replaced without changing the lock. We check that the latch still pulls back all the way.

The screens on our casement windows sit inside and keep falling out. Can that be stopped?

Usually. Inside screens on casements are held by small clips or springs, and those bend or break. New clips, or a screen frame refitted to the opening, often keep them in place.

Do you work in Cold Spring Harbor, Huntington, Huntington Bay and Laurel Hollow too?

Yes. We serve the towns around Lloyd Harbor, including Cold Spring Harbor, Huntington, Huntington Bay and Laurel Hollow.
