Driveways in Franklin Square, NY

Franklin Square is a densely populated hamlet in the Town of Hempstead, located along the Hempstead Turnpike corridor in central Nassau County. The community's housing stock consists primarily of Cape Cods, ranches, and small Colonials built in the 1940s and 1950s — homes with modest lot sizes and driveways that have endured 70-plus years of Long Island weather. Many of these driveways are cracked, settled, and draining poorly after decades of patch jobs and deferred maintenance.

Franklin Square's compact lot sizes make driveway design particularly important. With limited frontage, every square foot of driveway needs to work efficiently — providing parking space, managing water drainage, and contributing to curb appeal. Brothers Paving specializes in designing driveways for tighter suburban lots where grading precision and material selection make a visible difference.

The hamlet sits on glacial outwash soils that are generally sandy and drain reasonably well, though compaction over decades of development has reduced percolation in many areas. Brothers Paving installs a minimum 8-inch compacted aggregate base for all Franklin Square driveways and adjusts depth where we encounter softer or less permeable subsoil conditions during excavation.

Franklin Square's central location, proximity to the Cross Island Parkway and Southern State Parkway, and strong community identity make it a desirable place to own a home. Property values respond to visible improvements, and a new driveway is one of the highest-impact upgrades available. Brothers Paving delivers Franklin Square driveways that look professional and perform reliably through every season.
