Expert aprons & transitions for Hempstead homeowners. Historic village center and county seat area
Driveway aprons and transitions are the hardest-working areas of your paved surface, where your driveway meets the street, garage, sidewalk, or other surfaces. These connection points endure the heaviest stress and most concentrated wear, making proper construction essential. Brothers Paving & Masonry builds aprons and transitions on Long Island that meet all local code requirements.
Many towns in Nassau and Suffolk County require concrete aprons regardless of your driveway material, with specific dimensions, thickness, and drainage requirements that vary by municipality. For concrete aprons, we install a minimum six-inch reinforced slab with air-entrained concrete rated for vehicular use. We also specialize in garage transitions (pitched away from the structure with channel drains to prevent flooding) and sidewalk crossings built to ADA standards.
Drainage is critical at transition points where water naturally collects. We incorporate channel drains, trench drains, or graded swales to capture and redirect runoff, protecting your garage and foundation from Long Island's heavy rainfall.
Hempstead is located in Nassau County, Long Island. Hempstead is one of Nassau County's most populous and historically significant communities, serving as the seat of the Town of Hempstead. The village centers on Fulton Avenue and Main Street, forming a busy commercial district anchored by Hofstra University and the Nassau Coliseum site. Residential neighborhoods extend in all directions, with a diverse housing stock that includes bungalows, Cape Cods, and multi-family properties. Hempstead's active streetscape and dense development create demand for both residential driveway work and commercial paving improvements. Brothers Paving provides cost-effective, durable hardscaping solutions throughout Hempstead, from residential driveway replacements to concrete sidewalk repairs that serve this dynamic community.

Hempstead's dense residential grid includes some of the oldest housing stock on the Hempstead Plain, with brick stoops, concrete porches, and stone steps dating to the early twentieth century. The flat terrain and mixed fill soils in this heavily developed area can vary widely from lot to lot, often containing construction debris from prior renovations that complicates excavation. Stormwater management is a particular concern here, as impervious surface coverage is high and municipal drainage capacity is sometimes strained during heavy rain events.
