Reviews
Bohemia is a Town of Islip hamlet founded by Czech immigrants in the 19th century, with housing ranging from older village-era homes along Church Street and Smith Road to postwar Capes, splits, and ranches filling the surrounding residential blocks. Interior painting work spans the full range — careful plaster skim-coating on older village homes, standard drywall patch-and-paint on postwar homes, and cabinet repaints in older kitchens. We spec Benjamin Moore Regal Select or Sherwin-Williams Emerald on walls, Advance on trim. Full interior repaints run 4-6 days on a typical Bohemia home. Mold-resistant finishes handle bathrooms and basement areas.
Bohemia exteriors are a mix of older clapboard and cedar-shingle homes in the village center, brick-and-vinyl colonials, aluminum splits, and newer builds on infill lots. Older homes get full prep cycles — wash, scrape, feather, spot-prime, caulk, two coats of premium 100% acrylic. Vinyl and aluminum siding can be refreshed with surface-appropriate finishes. The hamlet is centrally located in the Town of Islip, several miles from Great South Bay waterfront, so modest salt exposure and 7-10 year paint life with proper prep. Deck staining pairs with exterior cycles. Small commercial storefronts along Smith Road and Lakeland Avenue are part of regular Bohemia work.
Bohemia sits in the central Town of Islip near MacArthur Airport, with Church Street, Smith Road, and Lakeland Avenue as the main corridors. The hamlet retains some of its Czech-American heritage through institutions like the Bohemia Czech Educational Center and historic properties. Lakeland County Park and MacArthur Airport anchor the area.
