Expert planter walls for Levittown homeowners. Historic first American suburb with renovation demand
Planter walls combine the structural strength of a retaining wall with the beauty of integrated landscaping, creating a hardscape feature that is both functional and visually captivating. Brothers Paving designs and builds custom planter walls for Long Island homeowners who want to add depth, greenery, and architectural elegance to their outdoor spaces. A planter wall creates a contained growing space at the top or integrated into the wall face, making it an exceptionally efficient use of space on Nassau and Suffolk County properties where maximizing every square foot matters.
Planter walls are ideal for introducing greenery into hardscaped areas without taking up ground-level space. Around a patio, they create a living border that softens the transition between hardscape and landscape. Along a driveway or walkway, they add color and curb appeal. Near a pool, they provide a lush backdrop without ground-level planting beds that shed debris into the water.
We build planter walls using Cambridge and Nicolock interlocking wall systems in a range of colors and textures, as well as natural fieldstone and regional stone for a timeless aesthetic. Bluestone, limestone, and granite caps provide a refined top edge. Construction follows full structural standards: compacted aggregate footing, proper course setback, drainage aggregate behind and beneath the planting area, and perforated drain pipe where appropriate. The interior planting cavity is lined with landscape fabric to keep soil contained while allowing water to pass through. We also apply waterproofing membranes to the interior wall face where it contacts soil, protecting the masonry from moisture damage through Long Island's freeze-thaw cycles.
Levittown is located in Nassau County, Long Island. Levittown holds a unique place in American history as the nation's first mass-produced suburb, developed by Levitt & Sons in the late 1940s. Today its curving streets and cul-de-sacs are lined with heavily modified Cape Cods, ranches, and expanded homes that homeowners have personalized over decades. Hempstead Turnpike and Wantagh State Parkway provide major access, while the Levittown Public Library and community pools serve as gathering places. With original infrastructure now over 70 years old, driveway replacements and walkway upgrades are among the most common improvement projects. Brothers Paving helps Levittown homeowners refresh their properties with cost-effective, durable hardscaping that brings these classic homes into the modern era.
Whether you're upgrading an existing property or starting fresh, our planter walls solutions are designed for Levittown's unique conditions, including Long Island's freeze-thaw cycles, coastal moisture, and local soil characteristics.

Levittown is the quintessential postwar planned community, where thousands of originally identical homes now present remarkably uniform paving and masonry upgrade needs. The flat outwash plain and sandy soils are easy to work with, but the original developments were built with minimal subbase under driveways and walkways, so full-depth reconstruction is usually necessary. Freeze-thaw damage and decades of road salt exposure have deteriorated most original concrete surfaces beyond simple patching.
