Stairs
We build beach access stairs that create a seamless, beautiful transition from land to shore.
Embracing sturdy construction and aesthetic appeal, our staircases are custom built with superior carpentry and craftsmanship. We are sticklers for the details, ensuring your stairs are level, pin straight, and square. Whether your home is just above the beach or atop a steep bluff, we will help you choose the perfect location and design for your stairs. We provide a beautiful finished product that blends with the natural beauty of our coastline.
The coastal environment here on the East End can be hard on your staircase. Wooden structures are especially susceptible to erosion from the salty air we know and love. At Soundview Marine, we ensure your stairs are constructed in harmony with this environment. We utilize durable materials designed to withstand the unique weather and climate of Long Island’s coastline, while minimizing our impact on the environment.
Our service is straightforward and the pricing all-inclusive. We will remove and dispose of your existing staircase, choose the right location for your new one, and collaborate with you to create a staircase that fits in with your needs and the natural landscape. Upon project completion we will leave you and your family with durable, long-lasting beach access. We also offer permit expediting services.
Let’s find the beach access solution that’s right for you! Schedule your free consultation by contacting Rich at rbuonaiuto@optonline.net.

Docks
Utilizing the best materials for the job, we build floating and fixed docks with both aesthetics and function in mind.
Soundview Marine specializes in both fixed docks and floating docks. We will work with you to customize your dock design, taking care in selecting the right building materials for both form and function.
The coastal environment creates unique challenges, and is especially hard on wooden structures like docks. With Soundview Marine, your dock will be made with longevity in mind, using the best materials and practices.
One of the materials we use is Ipe, a Brazilian hardwood prized for its beautiful color tones, as well as its impressive density. It is extremely resistant to scratches, dents, and other wear and tear. Because of its natural oils and dense fibers, Ipe decking is naturally resistant to moisture, making it an ideal choice to mitigate damage from mold, mildew, and even insects. Its high load-bearing capacity makes it the ideal choice for supporting heavy furniture, outdoor structures, or areas with a lot of foot traffic. Ipe has a long lifespan and can last decades with proper maintenance.
With a proven history of longevity in marine and coastal environments, we also utilize marine-grade pressure-treated wood. It is resistant to both pests and marine borers, and almost immune to rot. Whatever your needs, we have a solution for you.
We pride ourselves on being honest and dependable. Send us an email at rbuonaiuto@optonline.net to learn more and schedule a consultation.

Retaining Walls
In the realm of landscaping and construction, function and design are often seen as two separate entities.
Not at Soundview Marine!
Retaining walls are a great testament to the relationship between utility and aesthetics. They provide a crucial functional purpose by preventing erosion and managing soil, safeguarding your property’s foundation and making sloping lots more usable. However, their primary role as a support structure does not overshadow their immense potential to be a design marvel. In fact, retaining walls are pivotal in shaping the aesthetic of your outdoor space, adding visual interest and enhancing the look of your landscape.
A retaining wall constructed by Soundview Marine is a unique blend of beauty and purpose. Every curve, gradient, and material choice is meticulously considered for both form and function. We combine skill and artistry to carve out spaces while safeguarding their integrity. Our decisions are rooted in the dual promise of design and utility.
Just like the rest of your home and landscaping, your retaining wall should reflect your aesthetic. That’s why each of our retaining walls are completely one-of-a-kind. We listen, understand, and then take action, ensuring that the final structure meets your goals.
With our all-inclusive pricing and straightforward service, you don’t have to worry about hidden fees or pricey last-minute add-ons. Once you decide on a bespoke design, we take it from there. From permitting and sourcing materials, and excavation to coordinating with vendors, and cleaning up after the fact, we take care of it all.

Diving Services
To get things done in marine environments, you have to dive!
Our professional commercial diving team here at Soundview Marine offers a wide range of underwater solutions from conducting inspections and performing maintenance and repairs, to crafting innovative marine construction solutions. We are your underwater problem solvers! Each of our clients receives a personalized consultation, assessment, and solution for their individual needs.
We provide scheduled or unscheduled underwater maintenance and repair services for your marine assets. For example, a fouled propeller is a major inconvenience to boat owners. Often caused by lines or fishing nets, a fouled propeller needs to be cleared as it will affect the propulsion of the boat. Our divers will get you back on the water quickly! Other services include hull cleaning, monitoring and changing zincs, mooring inspections and chain replacement, underwater bulkhead repair and structural assessments, and more.
Whatever the scale of your marine needs, our dive team is here to help. We are pleased to offer our services to all on the East End, including individual vessel owners and waterfront homeowners, along with commercial clients like marinas and municipalities.
When it comes to building, maintaining, or repairing your boat, dock, or bulkhead, Soundview Marine is your best ally. Get in touch at rbuonaiuto@optonline.net to learn more and schedule a consultation.
