Expert aprons & transitions for Plainview homeowners. Mid-to-high residential, strong paving demand
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.
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 aprons & transitions 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.
