Your neighbors notice the difference immediately. Instead of that cracked, stained asphalt eyesore, you pull into a driveway that actually adds to your home’s value. No more winter damage from freeze-thaw cycles eating away at concrete edges.
Pavers handle Greenport’s harsh weather without the constant repairs that asphalt demands. They flex with ground movement instead of cracking, and if one ever needs replacement, you swap out individual pieces instead of tearing up entire sections.
You get decades of durability with the kind of curb appeal that makes your property stand out on every street in Greenport.
We’ve been transforming Long Island driveways since 2006. We’re not just chimney specialists—our masonry expertise covers the full range of hardscape projects, from paver driveways to Belgian block borders.
Every job gets owner oversight. That means Bobby Bruno or Sherwood Adams personally ensures your project meets our standards, not some crew supervisor who’s juggling five other jobs.
We’ve earned our A+ BBB rating and Angie’s List recognition by treating every Greenport driveway like it’s our own. Fully licensed and insured, because your peace of mind matters as much as the finished product.
We start by removing your old driveway completely—no shortcuts or patches that fail in two years. The excavation goes deep enough to create a proper foundation that won’t shift or settle.
Next comes the base preparation. We install and compact multiple layers of graded stone, creating the rock-solid foundation that separates professional installations from weekend DIY disasters. This base work determines whether your driveway lasts five years or fifty.
Then we set each paver by hand, checking levels and spacing as we go. The final step involves joint sand and edge restraints that lock everything in place. When we’re finished, you have a driveway that handles heavy vehicles and harsh Greenport winters without breaking a sweat.

Your paver driveway installation includes everything needed for a complete transformation. We handle the full scope—from excavation and base preparation to final paver placement and Belgian block border installation.
Belgian block aprons are especially popular in Greenport because they create that classic Long Island look while protecting your driveway edges from erosion and plow damage. These granite blocks handle the worst winter weather and actually improve with age.
Driveway extensions solve the common Greenport problem of not enough parking space. Instead of cars hanging into the street, we extend your existing driveway with pavers that match your home’s style. Whether you need space for a second car or want to eliminate that narrow squeeze getting in and out, extensions give you the room you actually need.
Properly installed paver driveways last 25-30 years in Greenport’s climate, compared to 10-15 years for asphalt. The key difference is how they handle freeze-thaw cycles that are common here on Long Island.
Asphalt cracks when water gets in and freezes, creating bigger cracks that let in more water. Pavers flex with ground movement and shed water through the joints instead of absorbing it. Even if individual pavers shift over decades, you replace single pieces rather than resurfacing the entire driveway.
The upfront investment in pavers pays off through lower maintenance costs and much longer lifespan, especially when you factor in Greenport’s harsh winter conditions.
Belgian blocks create clean, permanent edges that prevent your driveway from spreading into the lawn and protect against plow damage during Greenport’s snowy winters. They’re essentially granite curbing that lasts indefinitely.
Without proper edging, paver driveways can shift over time, especially along the edges where there’s less support. Belgian blocks lock the entire installation in place while adding that classic Long Island aesthetic that complements both traditional and modern homes.
They also handle the practical challenge of snow removal. Plow operators can follow the clear edge line without damaging your driveway or lawn, and the blocks themselves are virtually indestructible even when hit by heavy equipment.
Yes, driveway extensions with pavers are one of our most requested services in Greenport. Many homes here have narrow driveways that were built when cars were smaller, creating tight squeezes or forcing cars to park partially in the street.
We can extend your existing asphalt or concrete driveway with pavers that complement your home’s style. The extension gets the same deep excavation and base preparation as a full replacement, ensuring it won’t settle or separate from the existing surface.
Extensions solve parking problems while adding significant curb appeal. Instead of a plain asphalt rectangle, you get an attractive entrance that actually enhances your property value rather than just providing basic function.
Proper drainage starts with the excavation and base preparation. We grade the base to direct water away from your foundation and toward appropriate drainage areas, not just toward your neighbor’s property.
The paver joints themselves provide natural drainage that concrete and asphalt can’t match. Water filters through the joints into the stone base rather than running off in sheets that can cause erosion or ice buildup.
For properties with serious drainage challenges, we can install French drains or other subsurface drainage systems during the excavation phase. It’s much easier and more cost-effective to address drainage during installation rather than trying to fix problems after your driveway is complete.
The difference starts with owner involvement. Bobby Bruno or Sherwood Adams personally oversees every Greenport project instead of sending crews out unsupervised. That means consistent quality control and someone with 15+ years of experience making decisions on your job.
We also don’t cut corners on base preparation. Many contractors skimp on excavation depth or base compaction to save time and materials. Those shortcuts show up as settled or cracked driveways within a few years.
Our excavation goes deep enough to get below the frost line, and we use multiple lifts of properly graded stone, compacting each layer separately. It takes longer and costs more upfront, but it’s the difference between a driveway that lasts decades versus one that needs major repairs in five years.
Yes, we provide detailed free estimates for all paver driveway projects in Greenport. An owner visits your property to assess the scope, discuss your goals, and provide a written estimate that breaks down materials and labor.
We also guarantee to beat any written estimate from licensed, insured competitors doing comparable work. That doesn’t mean we’ll match fly-by-night operations cutting corners, but we won’t be undersold by legitimate contractors.
The estimate includes everything needed for a complete installation—excavation, base preparation, pavers, edge restraints, and cleanup. No surprise charges or “extras” that weren’t discussed upfront. Call 516-613-5450 to schedule your free estimate.
