Professional stoops & porches for Albertson homeowners. Compact residential hamlet near Roslyn Heights
Albertson is a quiet residential hamlet tucked between Roslyn Heights and Mineola in central Nassau County, and Brothers Paving & Masonry serves its homeowners with stoop and porch construction that addresses the structural failures aging post-war masonry develops after decades of Long Island winters. Many Albertson homes were built in the 1950s and 1960s, and their original stoops are showing the same deterioration patterns we see across Nassau County.
Cracked risers, settled platforms, eroded mortar joints, and corroded railings are not cosmetic issues — they are safety hazards and value detractors in a community with strong schools and stable property values. Brothers Paving replaces these failing stoops with properly engineered masonry built on frost-line footings that will not move, shift, or crack for decades.
We offer the full range of stoop and porch services: demolition of existing structures, excavation to the 36-inch frost line, reinforced footings, structural build-up, waterproof membranes, finish work in brick, stone, bluestone, or brownstone, and code-compliant railings. Town of North Hempstead permits are managed entirely by our team.
Albertson is a small hamlet in the Town of North Hempstead, centered around Willis Avenue and Albertson Avenue. The community draws families with its excellent Herricks School District coverage and convenient location near the I.U. Willets Road corridor. Homes are predominantly post-war Cape Cods, ranches, and split-levels on modest lots, with a stable population of long-term homeowners who maintain their properties consistently.
The stoops in Albertson share the same construction heritage as the rest of mid-century Nassau: basic concrete or brick on shallow footings built quickly during the suburban boom. After seventy years, these structures are past their design life. Brothers Paving regularly works in Albertson rebuilding stoops that have settled, cracked, or separated from the house — giving homeowners a fresh, solid entry that matches the care they put into the rest of their property.
Albertson falls within the Town of North Hempstead rather than the Town of Hempstead, which means a different building department and different permit procedures. Brothers Paving is experienced with North Hempstead's requirements and manages all permits seamlessly.
The community's modest lot sizes and close setbacks occasionally require careful logistical planning for equipment access and debris removal. Our crews handle these situations routinely, protecting neighboring properties and minimizing disruption throughout the project.

Learn MoreAlbertson falls within the Town of North Hempstead for building permits, not the Town of Hempstead. Stoop rebuilds with new footings require a North Hempstead permit with inspections. We handle all permit applications and scheduling. Soil conditions in Albertson are mixed — some blocks have well-draining sandy soil while others near the Roslyn Heights border have denser clay. We verify conditions on every site and adjust drainage and footing preparation accordingly. Lot sizes are moderate, and we manage equipment access and neighbor relations carefully on tight sites.
