Expert steps & landings for Hempstead homeowners. Historic village center and county seat area
Exterior steps and landings connect different elevations around your home, from the sidewalk to the stoop, the yard to the porch, or a patio to a raised deck area. They endure constant foot traffic, direct weather exposure, and the full force of Long Island's freeze-thaw cycles. Cracked, uneven, or crumbling steps are among the leading causes of slip-and-fall injuries at residential properties, and the risks are compounded by winter ice on already compromised surfaces.
Brothers Paving builds and rebuilds masonry steps and landings that are structurally sound, code compliant, and finished with materials that enhance your home's appearance. We construct risers and treads from brick, concrete block, natural stone, or poured concrete, with landings sized to meet New York State building code requirements, typically a minimum of 36 inches in the direction of travel.
Our construction process begins with an evaluation of existing conditions, followed by demolition and excavation as needed. We pour footings below the frost line (approximately 36 inches on Long Island), build the step structure with consistent riser heights and tread depths, and finish with bluestone, brownstone, granite, brick, or natural stone caps. We use air-entrained mortar, install drainage behind and beneath step structures, and add code-compliant railings where required. Steps are integrated with your existing stoop, porch, walkway, or retaining wall for a unified look across Nassau and Suffolk County properties.
Hempstead is located in Nassau County, Long Island. Hempstead is one of Nassau County's most populous and historically significant communities, serving as the seat of the Town of Hempstead. The village centers on Fulton Avenue and Main Street, forming a busy commercial district anchored by Hofstra University and the Nassau Coliseum site. Residential neighborhoods extend in all directions, with a diverse housing stock that includes bungalows, Cape Cods, and multi-family properties. Hempstead's active streetscape and dense development create demand for both residential driveway work and commercial paving improvements.

Hempstead's dense residential grid includes some of the oldest housing stock on the Hempstead Plain, with brick stoops, concrete porches, and stone steps dating to the early twentieth century. The flat terrain and mixed fill soils in this heavily developed area can vary widely from lot to lot, often containing construction debris from prior renovations that complicates excavation. Stormwater management is a particular concern here, as impervious surface coverage is high and municipal drainage capacity is sometimes strained during heavy rain events.
