Professional masonry services for Plainview homeowners. Mid-to-high residential, strong paving demand
Plainview homeowners know that a well-maintained home holds its value, and masonry is one of the most visible indicators of property condition. Brothers Paving & Masonry provides the chimney repairs, stoop rebuilds, tuckpointing, and stone veneer installations that keep Plainview homes looking sharp and structurally sound — delivering professional quality at prices that respect your budget.
Our Plainview masonry services include chimney repair and rebuilds, stoop and entry restoration, brick repointing and tuckpointing, stone veneer installation, column construction, stone cap and coping replacement, mortar repair, and structural masonry fixes. We work with brick, stone, bluestone, and manufactured veneer — selecting materials that fit your home's style and your investment goals.
Every project starts with an honest assessment. We tell you what needs fixing now, what can wait, and what is still in good condition. No unnecessary work, no inflated scope — just straightforward masonry service from a contractor who has been doing this for over 15 years.
Plainview is a classic mid-century Long Island community with homes predominantly built in the 1950s and 1960s. The housing stock — ranches, split-levels, Cape Cods, and colonials — features masonry elements that are now 60 to 70 years old. Chimneys, stoops, and entry walls built during this era are reaching the end of their original mortar lifespan, and many need comprehensive repair or full rebuilds to remain safe and functional.
The most common masonry issues we address in Plainview are chimney deterioration (crumbling mortar, cracked crowns, missing caps), stoop failures (settling, cracking, brick detachment), and tuckpointing needs on brick accent walls and facades where mortar has receded more than a quarter inch. These are not cosmetic issues — they allow water into the masonry structure, and freeze-thaw cycling turns small problems into expensive failures if ignored.
Stone veneer has become a smart investment for Plainview homeowners looking to update their home's appearance without a full renovation. Adding veneer to a foundation wall and entry columns transforms a standard mid-century home into something that looks custom and current — a significant curb appeal advantage in Plainview's competitive resale market.
Plainview is within the Town of Oyster Bay. Building permits are required for chimney rebuilds, stoop reconstruction, and other structural masonry work. Brothers Paving handles all permitting.

Learn MorePlainview sits on the flat Hempstead Plains with well-drained glacial outwash soil. The flat terrain means surface water management around masonry structures depends entirely on engineered slope — there is no natural grade to carry water away. We ensure every stoop, foundation wall, and entry element sheds water with positive pitch and appropriate cap stone overhang. Plainview's mid-century homes frequently have stoops with minimal footings that have settled over decades, creating gaps at the house connection where water enters and causes freeze-thaw damage to both the stoop and the foundation. We build replacement stoops on proper footings engineered for Long Island's frost depth.
