Expert fire features for Old Westbury homeowners. Estate community, large lots, high-value projects
Fire features transform a Long Island patio from a simple outdoor surface into a captivating gathering space filled with warmth and year-round appeal. Brothers Paving designs and installs custom firepits, outdoor fireplaces, fire tables, and fire bowls that become the focal point of your outdoor living area. On Long Island, where evenings stretch comfortably from April through November, a fire feature makes your patio inviting well beyond the summer months. National surveys consistently rank fire features among the top three most-desired outdoor amenities for homebuyers, and in the Nassau and Suffolk County market, a professionally installed fire feature adds measurable value to your property.
Firepits are our most popular option, creating a 360-degree gathering spot in round, square, or rectangular configurations. We build them using interlocking wall block, natural stone, and custom masonry, with a choice of wood-burning or gas fuel. Gas firepits offer instant ignition, adjustable flame, and clean operation, topped with decorative fire glass, lava rock, or ceramic logs. Outdoor fireplaces make a bold architectural statement with fire-rated brick fireboxes, steel reinforcement, and stone veneer or stucco exteriors. Options include custom mantels, raised hearths, and integrated wood storage. Fire tables and fire bowls provide a more contemporary approach, combining clean-burning gas systems with sculptural design for dining areas and pool surrounds.
Safety is built into every installation. We adhere to all local building codes, maintain required setback distances, and use spark arrestors and fire-rated construction on wood-burning features. Gas connections are completed by licensed professionals with code-compliant piping and shut-off valves. Every fire feature rests on a compacted aggregate base or reinforced concrete footing to prevent settling and frost heaving, using materials rated for Long Island freeze-thaw cycles and coastal humidity.
Old Westbury is located in Nassau County, Long Island. Old Westbury is synonymous with Long Island luxury, defined by sprawling multi-acre estates set behind gated entries along winding roads like Store Hill Road and Wheatley Road. This Gold Coast village is home to Old Westbury Gardens, a historic estate open to the public, and the campus of SUNY Old Westbury. Properties here routinely feature long private driveways, motor courts, and extensive hardscaped entertaining areas that require expert installation and maintenance. The village's two-acre minimum lot sizes mean that paving and masonry projects are substantial in scale, from grand paver motor courts to custom retaining walls that navigate the rolling terrain. Brothers Paving has the experience and equipment to handle Old Westbury's large-format projects, delivering meticulous results that meet the expectations of this ultra-premium market.
Whether you're upgrading an existing property or starting fresh, our fire features solutions are designed for Old Westbury's unique conditions, including Long Island's freeze-thaw cycles, coastal moisture, and local soil characteristics.

Old Westbury's sprawling estate properties feature some of the longest residential driveways in Nassau County, often requiring phased paving projects to manage scope and cost. The terrain gently undulates across the transition between the Hempstead Plain and the North Shore moraine, with soils ranging from sandy loam to heavy glacial clay. Grand entry gates, stone pillars, and perimeter walls are common masonry features that need periodic repointing to withstand Long Island's freeze-thaw cycles.
