Asphalt Paving in Hicksville, NY

Hicksville is a large, centrally located hamlet in the Town of Oyster Bay with a dense residential layout and a massive transportation hub at the Hicksville LIRR station. The community's housing stock dates primarily from the 1950s and 1960s Levittown-era buildout, making it one of Nassau County's original postwar suburbs. This means the majority of Hicksville driveways are 60 to 70 years old — well past their design life, even those that have been overlaid one or more times.

The soils in Hicksville are a mix of glacial moraine and outwash material, with generally good drainage but occasional clay lenses that trap water and create soft spots beneath asphalt surfaces. Brothers Paving checks base conditions on every Hicksville project and adjusts aggregate depth where clay or poor drainage is discovered.

Hicksville's central location and LIRR access mean residential streets see higher traffic volumes than many Nassau suburbs — commuter parking, delivery vehicles, and multi-car families all add load to driveways. We build every Hicksville driveway with a minimum 6-inch compacted DGA base to handle these demands without rutting or settling.

The Hicksville real estate market is active, with property values that reward well-maintained homes. A freshly paved driveway is one of the most visible and impactful curb appeal improvements available — and one of the highest-ROI exterior investments a Hicksville homeowner can make.
