Expert raised patios for Merrick homeowners. South Shore, strong homeowner market
A raised paver patio elevates your outdoor living area above the natural grade of your yard, creating a defined space that feels like a true extension of your home. Brothers Paving has built hundreds of raised patios across Nassau and Suffolk County, solving common Long Island challenges like sloped yards, awkward step-downs, and walkout basement access. By bringing the patio surface level with your back door, a raised patio delivers a seamless indoor-outdoor transition that adds both usability and significant property value.
Our process begins with an on-site evaluation of your yard grading, drainage, and structural requirements. We excavate and install a compacted aggregate base, then build retaining or support walls along the perimeter using interlocking wall block, natural stone, or poured concrete footings, engineered to handle lateral pressure from fill material and the patio surface above. Every raised patio includes proper drainage solutions such as surface grading for runoff, channel drains, or integrated wall drainage, plus geotextile fabric to prevent soil migration.
We offer a full range of paver styles and patterns, including Belgard, Cambridge, and Unilock interlocking pavers in herringbone, running bond, or basketweave layouts, along with natural bluestone and travertine for a more classic look. Decorative borders, contrasting inlays, and integrated stairs round out the design to make your raised patio truly one of a kind.
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 raised patios 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.
