Professional masonry services for Hicksville homeowners. Major LIRR hub with large residential base
Hicksville homeowners depend on Brothers Paving & Masonry for masonry projects that deliver permanent solutions to the crumbling stoops, spalling brick, and failing entry features found across this large central Nassau community. From stoop rebuilds along Broadway to stone veneer transformations near the Hicksville LIRR hub, we bring engineering-first masonry construction to a community where tens of thousands of post-war homes are reaching the age where original masonry needs professional replacement.
Our masonry scope in Hicksville includes stoop and porch construction, brick and block step systems, natural and manufactured stone veneer, decorative columns, chimney repair, garden and planter walls, stone caps and treads, window sills, and custom masonry features. We carry a comprehensive range of materials — traditional clay brick, Pennsylvania bluestone, granite, brownstone, cultured stone from Eldorado and Boral, and natural fieldstone — and match every project to the home's style and the homeowner's budget.
Every masonry structure we build in Hicksville starts with reinforced concrete footings poured to the 36-inch frost line. This is the single most critical detail in Long Island masonry — without frost-line footings, everything built above will eventually crack, settle, and fail. Brothers Paving never compromises on this foundation.
Hicksville is one of Nassau County's largest hamlets, a central transportation hub with a housing stock dominated by post-war construction — Levitt-era Capes and ranches from the late 1940s and 1950s, along with split-levels, expanded homes, and newer Colonials from subsequent decades. The community's original homes were built during Long Island's mass suburbanization, when speed often took precedence over structural quality. Many stoops were poured on 12-inch footings that were never adequate for Long Island's frost depth, and seven decades of freeze-thaw cycling have taken their toll.
Hicksville sits on glacial outwash that drains well in most sections, providing favorable conditions for masonry foundations. The flat terrain means surface drainage relies on proper grading — a detail Brothers Paving addresses on every project to prevent water from pooling against masonry structures.
Hicksville falls within the Town of Oyster Bay for building permits. Our team manages the full permitting process as part of every project.
Hicksville's central location, LIRR hub status, and affordability relative to surrounding communities drive steady demand and property value growth. Homeowners who upgrade aging exteriors with quality masonry — rebuilt stoops, modern veneer, and durable entries — differentiate their homes in a competitive market and protect long-term value.

Learn MoreHicksville's glacial outwash provides generally good drainage for masonry foundations. The flat terrain and dense development mean surface water management depends entirely on proper grading — natural slopes are minimal, so every inch of pitch around a masonry structure must be deliberately engineered. Brothers Paving ensures a minimum quarter-inch-per-foot slope away from every stoop and wall. In areas where lot grading has settled or been altered by decades of landscaping changes, we regrade the entry area as part of the masonry project.
