Your days of dealing with cracked concrete that pools water and creates safety hazards are over. When you choose professional paver installation, you get a surface that drains properly, stays level through Long Island’s freeze-thaw cycles, and handles everything from family barbecues to harsh winters.
Individual pavers mean real solutions. If something does happen years down the road, you’re not ripping up an entire slab—just replace what needs fixing. Meanwhile, you’re enjoying an outdoor space that actually works for your life.
The best part? You’re not just getting a patio. You’re getting an investment that pays for itself through increased home value while giving you decades of reliable outdoor living space that won’t crack, shift, or become a maintenance headache.
We’ve been serving Jericho and Nassau County homeowners for nearly two decades. Founded by childhood friends Bobby Bruno and Sherwood Adams, we understand exactly what it takes to build paver installations that last in our climate.
We’re not just another contractor. We’re your neighbors who know Jericho’s unique soil conditions, drainage challenges, and how Long Island winters affect different paver materials. That local knowledge makes the difference between a patio that looks good for a few years and one that performs beautifully for decades.
You can count on an owner being present for every aspect of your job. We’re fully licensed, insured, and bonded, with an A+ BBB rating and six consecutive years of Angie’s List awards because we do what we say we’ll do.
We start with a consultation at your property to understand your vision, measure the space, and discuss material options that work best for Jericho’s conditions. You’ll see exactly what we’re planning before any work begins—no surprises, no guesswork.
Next comes proper excavation and site preparation. This is where most DIY projects fail, but it’s where we excel. We install the right slope—about a quarter-inch drop per linear foot—to direct water away from your home. The base preparation includes properly compacted aggregate that allows water to drain through while providing solid support.
For Jericho’s clay-heavy soils, we often install additional drainage measures to prevent water from backing up under your patio. We use only high-quality pavers designed to withstand Long Island’s freeze-thaw cycles, with proper edging to prevent movement and polymeric sand for joint stability. Every installation includes detailed cleanup and maintenance guidance specific to your materials and local conditions.

Your patio pavers installation includes everything needed for a lasting, beautiful result. We handle complete site preparation, proper drainage solutions, and professional-grade base materials. We use only pavers designed specifically for Long Island’s climate—materials that resist freeze-thaw damage and heavy use.
Jericho homeowners often choose natural stone textures and earth tones that complement the area’s established landscaping and architectural styles. We help you select colors and patterns that enhance your home’s value while creating the outdoor atmosphere you want, whether that’s intimate family dinners or large entertaining spaces.
Beyond basic patio installation, we can integrate related upgrades like pool patios, driveways, and pergola foundations. Many of our Jericho clients choose to phase their outdoor projects, starting with a patio and later adding complementary features. This approach lets you spread the investment while creating a cohesive outdoor living environment that truly transforms how you use your property.
Paver installation in Jericho typically ranges from $16 to $30 per square foot, depending on the materials you choose and project complexity. A standard 12×14 patio usually runs between $2,700 and $5,600 for professional installation.
The cost includes proper site preparation, base installation, drainage considerations, and finishing work. Higher-end materials like natural stone or complex patterns will be toward the upper end of this range, while concrete pavers in simple layouts stay closer to the lower end. Keep in mind that professional installation is an investment that pays for itself through proper drainage, longevity, and increased home value—quality paver patios provide around 80% return on investment in Jericho’s real estate market.
Quality pavers can last 20 to 100 years depending on the material and how well they’re maintained. Concrete pavers typically last 25-50 years, while natural stone pavers can last a century or more with proper care.
The key is professional installation with proper base preparation and drainage. Pavers that are installed correctly with adequate base material and proper slope will outlast most other patio materials. They’re also much easier to maintain and repair than alternatives—even after decades, individual pavers can be replaced if needed, while concrete slabs typically need complete replacement once they start failing. This makes pavers a better long-term investment despite the higher initial cost.
Most paver patio installations in Jericho take 2-3 weeks from start to finish, depending on your patio size, design complexity, and weather conditions during installation. Interestingly, late fall to winter can actually be ideal timing for installation.
The cold and wet weather of those seasons helps us perfect the foundation for your patio. While it might seem counterintuitive, these conditions allow for optimal base preparation and settling. Spring and early fall are also excellent times, avoiding the extreme heat of summer and allowing you to enjoy your new patio during prime outdoor living months. We’ll work with you to find timing that fits your schedule and ensures the best possible installation conditions.
Paver patio maintenance in Jericho is straightforward and much easier than maintaining concrete. Regular sweeping removes debris and prevents weed growth. Occasional power washing keeps pavers looking fresh, especially after Long Island’s pollen season.
Joint sand may need refreshing every 2-3 years, depending on weather and use. We use polymeric sand that resists washout and inhibits weed growth, but some settling is normal over time. Sealing isn’t required but can enhance color and provide stain protection—if you choose to seal, plan on reapplication every 3-5 years. We provide specific maintenance guidelines based on your paver type and local conditions, so you’ll know exactly how to keep your investment looking great year after year.
Installing pavers over existing concrete is possible if the concrete is in good condition—no major cracks, proper drainage, and stable foundation. This approach can reduce project costs and installation time when the existing surface is suitable.
However, the existing concrete must be evaluated carefully. It needs to be properly sloped for drainage and structurally sound. If there are drainage issues, cracks, or settling problems with the current concrete, it’s better to remove it completely and start with proper base preparation. We’ll assess your existing patio during our consultation and recommend the approach that gives you the best long-term results. Sometimes spending a bit more upfront for complete removal and proper installation saves significant money and headaches down the road.
Pavers offer several advantages over poured concrete, especially for Long Island homeowners. They won’t crack like concrete, are easier to repair, and offer more design flexibility. Pavers also handle our freeze-thaw cycles better—when water gets into concrete joints and freezes, it expands and causes cracking, but individual pavers can move slightly without damage.
From a financial standpoint, pavers don’t raise property taxes like permanent concrete structures, and they tend to increase property value more than basic concrete. While the initial cost is higher, the long-term value and reduced maintenance issues make pavers a smart investment for most homeowners. Plus, if you ever need to access utilities under your patio, individual pavers can be removed and replaced, while concrete requires expensive breaking and replacement of entire sections.
