Glen Cove, NY
Glen Cove is a North Shore city in Nassau County surrounded by water on three sides, with a history rooted in the Gold Coast estates that once lined its more than ten miles of waterfront. McCormack Irrigation has provided lawn sprinkler installation, seasonal turn on and winterizing service, sprinkler repair, backflow testing, landscape lighting, and commercial snow removal to homeowners and businesses throughout the city since 2001.
Glen Cove’s waterfront location along Hempstead Harbor and the Long Island Sound means many properties here deal with higher humidity and more direct water exposure than towns further inland, while the city’s Gold Coast history has left behind a number of large, mature properties with established landscaping. Our team has worked across this mix of waterfront homes, historic estates, and more standard residential streets for more than two decades.
As a family owned and operated company, every job we complete in Glen Cove is handled by our own trained, uniformed employees rather than subcontractors, which means the same standard of accountability applies whether we are installing a system near Hempstead Harbor or repairing one further from the water.

Serving Glen Cove’s Waterfront Neighborhoods
Being surrounded by water on three sides shapes how our team approaches nearly every property in Glen Cove. Waterfront neighborhoods and properties near Hempstead Harbor often deal with higher humidity and more direct exposure to salt air than areas further from the shoreline, which affects both irrigation equipment selection and how landscape lighting fixtures hold up over time. Glen Cove’s Gold Coast era estates, some dating back to the early twentieth century, frequently feature mature trees and long established gardens, and our technicians work carefully around this kind of landscaping rather than treating it as an obstacle to a standard installation. More recently developed residential streets away from the waterfront tend to have more typical suburban lot conditions, and we adjust our design approach accordingly. This range of property types within a fairly compact city, all of it within a short drive of our team, allows us to bring detailed local knowledge to every job in Glen Cove regardless of which part of the city it is in.
