Expert firepits for Merrick homeowners. South Shore, strong homeowner market
A custom firepit turns your Long Island patio into a year-round gathering spot. At Brothers Paving, we design and build wood-burning and gas firepits that are safe, beautiful, and built to handle years of Nassau and Suffolk County weather. On Long Island, where pleasant evenings stretch from early spring through late fall, a firepit lets you take full advantage of every one of them, extending your outdoor season well beyond the summer months.
We offer a variety of styles to suit any taste. Round firepits create a classic focal point, while square and rectangular designs pair with contemporary patio layouts. We build using interlocking wall block, natural stone, and custom masonry, always matching or complementing the surrounding patio. For wood-burning firepits, we construct the firebox with fire-rated materials, proper ventilation, and an optional steel fire ring insert for durability and easy ash cleanup. For gas firepits, we install a quality burner system with control valve, connect to your home gas line or a propane tank, and top with fire glass, lava rock, or ceramic logs for instant ignition and adjustable flame.
Safety and code compliance are built into every installation. We maintain proper clearances from structures, fences, and overhead obstructions, and build every firepit base on compacted aggregate to prevent frost heaving and settling. All materials are selected for freeze-thaw durability, and drainage is engineered to prevent water from pooling inside the firebox.
Merrick is located in Nassau County, Long Island. Merrick is a thriving South Shore hamlet in Nassau County, home to a strong community of homeowners who take pride in their properties. Merrick Road and Sunrise Highway serve as the primary commercial corridors, while residential streets like Hewlett Avenue, Frankel Boulevard, and Camp Avenue feature Colonials, ranches, and split-levels on well-kept lots. The Bellmore-Merrick Central School District is a major attraction for families. Merrick's canal neighborhoods along Merrick Bay offer waterfront living, where dock access and marine considerations influence hardscaping choices. Norman J. Levy Park & Preserve provides green space along the waterfront. Brothers Paving understands the South Shore's specific needs, including proper drainage solutions for low-lying areas, durable materials that resist salt exposure, and designs that complement the area's established residential character while modernizing outdoor spaces.
Whether you're upgrading an existing property or starting fresh, our firepits solutions are designed for Merrick's unique conditions, including Long Island's freeze-thaw cycles, coastal moisture, and local soil characteristics.

Merrick's bayside location means the water table can rise to within a few feet of the surface during wet seasons, making subsurface drainage design a critical element of any paving project. The flat, sandy soils provide easy excavation but poor load-bearing capacity without a properly constructed aggregate base. Many postwar homes in the community have original concrete walks and asphalt driveways showing decades of settlement and surface deterioration from salt exposure.
