Professional stoops & porches for Roslyn Heights homeowners. Adjacent to Roslyn, residential upgrades
Roslyn Heights is a desirable Nassau County community where well-maintained colonials, split-levels, and raised ranches line tree-shaded streets with strong property values. Brothers Paving & Masonry builds and rebuilds masonry stoops, front porches, steps, and entry details throughout Roslyn Heights that elevate curb appeal and resolve the safety hazards created by aging, cracked, or settling front entries. From the neighborhoods along Warner Avenue to the residential streets off Roslyn Road, we deliver front entry masonry that transforms the face of your home.
Our Roslyn Heights projects typically involve brick stoop rebuilds, bluestone-capped entries, and front porch additions that complement the mid-century and traditional architecture prevalent in this community. We work with brick, bluestone, concrete block, brownstone, and granite — selecting materials that match the home's existing facade and the neighborhood's established character. Every stoop is built on reinforced footings below the frost line.
Many Roslyn Heights homes built in the 1950s and 1960s have original concrete or brick stoops that are now fifty to seventy years old and showing their age. Brothers Paving specializes in demolishing these failing structures and replacing them with properly engineered masonry that will serve the home for another half-century.
Roslyn Heights is predominantly a community of mid-century homes — colonials, split-levels, raised ranches, and cape cods built during the post-war suburban expansion. Many of these homes have original poured concrete or brick stoops that were built to minimal standards and have deteriorated over six to seven decades of Long Island freeze-thaw cycling. Cracked concrete, eroded mortar joints, settled steps, and stoops that have separated from the house foundation are the most common issues we encounter.
The community is part of the Roslyn Public School District, which supports strong property values and makes curb appeal improvements a smart investment. A new masonry stoop is one of the most cost-effective exterior upgrades available — it immediately improves the home's appearance and eliminates a potential safety liability.
Roslyn Heights sits on gently rolling terrain with well-draining sandy soils that are favorable for masonry foundations. Most properties have moderate-grade front entries — two to four steps — that are straightforward to rebuild with proper engineering.
Roslyn Heights falls under the Town of North Hempstead for building permits. Brothers Paving handles all permit applications and inspections.

Learn MoreRoslyn Heights' gently rolling terrain and sandy outwash soils provide favorable conditions for stoop construction. Most properties require standard two-to-four-step entries that are straightforward to engineer with proper frost-line footings. The main challenge on Roslyn Heights properties is the age of the existing stoops — many original structures have deteriorated beyond the point of repair and require complete demolition and rebuild. When demolishing old concrete stoops, we often find that the original footings were undersized or did not reach the frost line, which explains why the structure settled. Our replacements are always built on full-depth reinforced footings. All footings poured to 36-inch depth with rebar.
Real projects we've completed for Roslyn Heights homeowners.
Demolished a 1958 poured concrete stoop that had cracked in multiple places and settled two inches on the left side. Poured new reinforced footings to 40-inch depth, built up with concrete block, and finished with brick veneer matching the home's red-blend facade and thermal-finish bluestone treads. Added black aluminum railings and an LED address marker light.
Scope: Full stoop replacement, brick veneer, bluestone treads, railings, lighting
Replaced a narrow concrete landing and single step on a split-level with a wider bluestone-capped brick stoop, adding a second step to correct an oversized riser height that was a tripping hazard. Integrated a small planter on each side of the landing for visual framing.
Scope: Entry upgrade, brick stoop, bluestone cap, step correction, planters
