Expert residential asphalt paving for Plainview homeowners. Mid-to-high residential, strong paving demand
Brothers Paving & Masonry delivers residential asphalt installations built for Long Island's climate and tailored to each property's unique conditions. Whether you need a new driveway, walkway, basketball court, or private access road, asphalt offers an unbeatable combination of affordability, quick installation, and all-weather performance across Nassau and Suffolk County. A properly installed surface handles freeze-thaw cycles, heavy rainfall, and summer heat without the cracking and spalling that can affect more rigid materials.
Our process starts with an on-site consultation where we evaluate soil type, drainage patterns, grading, and underground utilities. We excavate to the appropriate depth (typically eight to twelve inches), remove any soft or organic soils, and install a compacted aggregate base of six to eight inches placed in lifts with vibratory equipment. Grading is pitched to direct water away from your home's foundation toward proper discharge points. On Long Island, where high water tables and limited storm sewer capacity are common, effective drainage design is built into every project.
With the base prepared, we apply a tack coat and place hot-mix asphalt in controlled layers, a minimum of two and a half to three inches for standard residential use, with increased thickness for heavier loads. Steel-drum and pneumatic-tire rollers achieve the compaction density needed for a smooth, long-lasting surface. We finish with clean edge trimming, level transitions to garage floors and walkways, and precise installation of any Belgian block borders or paver edging on concrete footings.
Plainview is located in Nassau County, Long Island. Plainview is a well-established residential community in central Nassau County, built largely during the post-war suburban expansion. The hamlet's streets are lined with ranch homes, split-levels, and Colonials, many of which are undergoing significant renovations and upgrades by a new generation of homeowners. Washington Avenue and Old Country Road frame the community, with residential neighborhoods branching off in orderly grids. Plainview-Old Bethpage Central School District draws families to the area, and rising property values have fueled demand for exterior improvements. Driveway replacements are especially popular as original asphalt from the 1950s and 60s reaches end of life. Brothers Paving has completed hundreds of projects in Plainview, from full driveway reconstructions with proper grading and drainage to decorative paver walkways that modernize mid-century homes.
Whether you're upgrading an existing property or starting fresh, our residential asphalt paving solutions are designed for Plainview's unique conditions, including Long Island's freeze-thaw cycles, coastal moisture, and local soil characteristics.

Plainview's postwar Levitt-style housing stock features thousands of homes with original concrete walkways and asphalt driveways now well past their serviceable lifespan. The flat Hempstead Plain terrain and compacted sandy outwash soils make for straightforward excavation and grading, though the shallow topsoil layer can complicate planting adjacent to new hardscapes. Freeze-thaw cycling combined with road salt tracked onto driveways is the primary cause of surface scaling and joint failure in this area.
