Full Renovations

Imagine stepping into your backyard and seeing a space that feels entirely new, a space designed around the way you actually live, entertain, and relax. A full backyard renovation from Brothers Paving makes that vision a reality for Long Island homeowners who are ready to completely reimagine their outdoor environment. We do not simply replace what is there; we rethink the entire space from the ground up, creating a backyard that is as functional as it is beautiful and built to stand the test of time.

A full renovation is the right choice when your current backyard no longer serves your needs. Perhaps your aging concrete patio is cracked and settling, your landscape feels disconnected and underutilized, or you have simply outgrown the space you have. Maybe you purchased your home knowing the backyard had potential but needed a complete overhaul. Whatever your starting point, our full renovation service strips everything back to a blank canvas and builds forward with intention, precision, and expert craftsmanship.

Our design-build process is what sets Brothers Paving apart from other contractors on Long Island. We handle every phase of the project under one roof, from the initial consultation and site evaluation through design development, material selection, construction, and final walkthrough. This integrated approach eliminates the communication gaps, scheduling conflicts, and finger-pointing that often plague projects involving multiple contractors. You have one team, one point of contact, and one company accountable for the quality of every detail.

The process begins with a comprehensive on-site consultation. Our design team evaluates your existing yard, taking detailed measurements and assessing grading, drainage patterns, soil conditions, underground utilities, and the relationship between your home and the outdoor space. We discuss your goals, your lifestyle, your budget, and the features that matter most to you. Do you envision a sprawling patio with distinct zones for dining, lounging, and cooking? Do you want a fire feature as the centerpiece of your entertaining area? Would integrated lighting extend your enjoyment into the evening hours? Every detail is captured and incorporated into a custom design plan.

Our design team then creates a detailed layout that addresses both aesthetics and engineering. We plan the patio surface with premium interlocking pavers, natural stone, or a combination of materials that creates visual interest and defines different functional zones. Retaining walls are incorporated where grade changes require structural support or where terracing can add dimension to a flat yard. Walkways connect the patio to the house, the garden, and other areas of the property with smooth, safe transitions. Every element is positioned for optimal traffic flow, sight lines, and usability.

Material selection is a critical part of the renovation process, and we guide you through every option with expert recommendations tailored to your project. For patio surfaces, we offer interlocking concrete pavers from leading manufacturers like Belgard, Cambridge, and Unilock, as well as natural bluestone, travertine, and porcelain pavers. Retaining walls and seat walls can be built with interlocking wall systems, natural fieldstone, or custom masonry. Outdoor kitchen components use stainless steel, granite countertops, and weather-resistant cabinetry. Every material we recommend is selected for durability in Long Island conditions, where freeze-thaw cycles, coastal humidity, and heavy seasonal rain demand the highest quality products and installation methods.

Drainage is engineered into every full renovation we design. Long Island yards are notorious for water management challenges, and a renovation is the perfect opportunity to solve them permanently. We regrade the yard as needed, install French drains, channel drains, and dry wells, and ensure that every hardscape surface directs water away from your foundation and toward proper discharge points. Solving drainage problems during a full renovation prevents costly repairs down the road and protects your investment for decades.

Construction follows a carefully sequenced plan that minimizes disruption to your daily life. We begin with demolition and removal of existing hardscaping, followed by excavation, grading, and base preparation. Retaining walls and structural elements are built first, followed by patio surfaces, walkways, and vertical features like fireplaces or outdoor kitchens. Electrical and plumbing rough-ins are coordinated with licensed subcontractors at the appropriate stage. Finally, lighting, finishing details, and landscaping tie-ins complete the transformation.

The result is a backyard that feels like a natural extension of your home. Distinct zones flow seamlessly into one another, materials complement your home architecture, and every feature serves a purpose. Your new outdoor space is not just bigger or newer than what you had before; it is fundamentally better designed, better built, and better suited to the life you want to live.

Long Island homeowners who invest in a full backyard renovation consistently tell us it is the best home improvement decision they have ever made. The return on investment is substantial, both in daily enjoyment and in property value. A professionally renovated backyard with quality hardscaping, thoughtful design, and integrated features stands out in the competitive Long Island real estate market and commands a significant premium when it comes time to sell.
