Expert pool drainage for Port Washington homeowners. Waterfront community, North Shore
Proper drainage around a swimming pool is essential for protecting your pool structure, maintaining a safe patio surface, and preserving the longevity of your hardscape investment. At Brothers Paving & Masonry, we design and install comprehensive pool drainage systems for Long Island homeowners that manage every source of water around the pool area, including splash-out, deck washing, stormwater runoff, and rising groundwater. Standing water on a pool deck is a serious slip hazard. Beneath the surface, saturated soil undermines the compacted base that supports your pavers, leading to settling and freeze-thaw heaving during Long Island winters.
The pool structure itself is also at risk: water flowing behind the coping and into the bond beam area deteriorates concrete and corrodes reinforcing steel, and in winter, infiltrated water can freeze and cause cracking. Our drainage systems address all of these threats by grading the patio surface toward designated collection points and installing the right combination of drain types for your property.
Our pool drainage solutions include channel drains (trench drains) installed flush with the patio surface to intercept sheet flow, slot drains for a more discreet modern look, and point drains positioned at strategic low spots. For subsurface water, we install perforated pipe within the aggregate base to intercept groundwater before it saturates the subgrade, especially important on Long Island properties with high water tables or clay-heavy soils. All piping is installed with proper pitch for gravity flow, using solid PVC for transport lines and perforated pipe for collection zones, with cleanout access points at turns and junctions. We also integrate equipment pad drainage and filter backwash routing into the overall system so every water source is managed within a single, cohesive plan. Our systems serve homeowners across Nassau and Suffolk County, including South Shore and coastal communities where tidal influence and storm surge create additional groundwater challenges.
Port Washington is located in Nassau County, Long Island. Port Washington is a vibrant waterfront community on the Cow Neck peninsula, offering a unique blend of village charm and maritime character. Main Street descends to the harbor where marinas, restaurants, and the historic Sands Point Preserve create a scenic backdrop. The residential neighborhoods range from modest homes near the LIRR station to expansive waterfront estates along Shore Road and Sandy Hollow Road. Port Washington's varied terrain, from flat harbor-front lots to sloped hillside properties, requires versatile paving and masonry expertise. Coastal properties face additional challenges from salt air and moisture that demand durable materials and proper installation techniques. Brothers Paving serves Port Washington with tailored solutions, whether it's a permeable paver driveway in the flood-prone harbor area or an expansive natural stone patio for a hillside estate.
Whether you're upgrading an existing property or starting fresh, our pool drainage solutions are designed for Port Washington's unique conditions, including Long Island's freeze-thaw cycles, coastal moisture, and local soil characteristics.

Port Washington's harbor-facing slopes and clay-heavy subsoil create drainage complications that must be addressed before any hardscape installation. Many homes in the Sands Point and Manorhaven areas date to the early twentieth century and feature aging concrete stoops, brick porches, and Belgian block borders in need of rebuilding. The proximity to Manhasset Bay means salt air and wind-driven moisture accelerate surface deterioration on unsealed pavers and natural stone.
