Expert garden walls for Old Westbury homeowners. Estate community, large lots, high-value projects
A well-designed garden wall transforms an ordinary Long Island landscape into a structured, visually compelling outdoor environment. Brothers Paving builds garden walls that serve both functional and decorative purposes, creating terraced planting beds on sloped yards, defining borders between lawn and garden areas, and adding architectural interest to flat properties. Unlike timber borders that deteriorate over time, a masonry garden wall is a permanent improvement that looks better with age.
Many properties across Nassau and Suffolk County have natural slopes that make landscaping difficult. Without proper retention, soil erodes during heavy rains, mulch washes away, and planting beds lose their shape season after season. A garden wall holds soil firmly in place, creates level planting surfaces at different elevations, and channels water where it needs to go. The result is a landscape that stays intact through every Long Island storm and freeze-thaw cycle.
We offer Cambridge and Nicolock interlocking wall systems in a variety of textures, colors, and profiles, as well as natural fieldstone and bluestone for homeowners who prefer an organic look. Every garden wall starts with a compacted aggregate base, with the first course set partially below grade for stability. Behind the wall, we place drainage aggregate and perforated pipe to prevent hydrostatic pressure buildup. For taller walls, geogrid reinforcement layers tie the wall into the retained soil mass. Cap options include natural bluestone, limestone, and matching wall system caps that protect the top course and provide a polished finishing touch.
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.

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.
