Asphalt Paving in Franklin Square, NY

Franklin Square is a densely populated hamlet in the Town of Hempstead with compact residential lots and a housing stock built primarily in the 1940s through 1960s. The tight lot sizes mean driveways are typically 300 to 600 square feet with narrow setbacks to property lines, sidewalks, and adjacent structures. This compact layout demands precision from paving crews — there's no margin for sloppy edges or equipment damage to neighboring improvements.

The soils in Franklin Square are glacial outwash with good drainage characteristics, but the age of the housing stock means most original driveways were built with inadequate base material by today's standards. Many have been patched or overlaid multiple times, creating uneven multi-layer surfaces that are well past salvage. Brothers Paving strips these driveways to native soil and rebuilds with modern base specifications.

Franklin Square's location along Hempstead Turnpike creates heavy traffic flow through residential side streets, and many homeowners use their driveways for daily parking of multiple vehicles. This constant load demands a robust pavement section — we install a minimum 6 inches of compacted DGA base to handle the weight without rutting or settling.

Property values in Franklin Square have been rising steadily, and a well-paved driveway is one of the most noticeable improvements a homeowner can make. Our clean, machine-finished surfaces with proper edges and transitions deliver the curb appeal that supports Franklin Square's growing market.
