What to expect from your project, from start to finish

1. Initial Consultation

Understanding your outdoor living dream

Initial Consultation

We will meet with you to discuss your vision, preferences, and requirements for the outdoor space. We'll talk about desired features, like patios, fire pits, and outdoor kitchens, and discuss your budget.

2. Design & Planning

Your dreams, visualized

Design & Planning

We will create a draft concept design reflecting the layout, style, and features discussed and discuss materials selection, such as types of stone, pavers, or other materials, then develop a detailed design plan, including measurements, elevations, and materials.

3. Pricing & Proposal

Let's get this right

Pricing & Proposal

We will prepare a detailed cost estimate for you, including materials, labor, equipment, and any subcontractor fees nd present our proposal to you, including the design plan, budget breakdown, timeline, and terms of the contract. If needed, we will make adjustments and changes at this point to save time and money later.

4. Pre Construction Preparation

We have some work to do!

Pre-Construction Preparation

We will prepare your site, which may involve grading, excavation, or demolition of existing structures; order the materials and schedule their delivery to ensure everything is ready for the day 1 of construction; and develop a construction schedule, including any subcontractors or others involved in the project.

5. Construction

Bringing your outdoor dreams to life

Construction

We’ll begin by installing anything that will be covered, such as drainage solutions and conduits, then the foundation for any structures, like walls or footings, as well as the base for your pavers. We will then install your pavers and features like fire pits or outdoor kitchens. Finally, we will add landscaping, irrigation, and lighting, according to the plan.

6. Final Touches

Time to live the dream!

Final Touches

We will conduct a thorough inspection of the completed work to ensure everything meets the design specifications and quality standards and walk through the project with you to review the work and ensure satisfaction. Finally, we will clean up the site, remove any debris, excess materials, and equipment.

Hands down we would highly recommend Genstar Masonry. From start to finish they were great to work with. They were friendly, professional and easy to work with. They kept in communication and answered any questions/concerns throughout the project. They were helpful with recommendations and suggestions yet listened to what we wanted without any pressure. Every last detail was taken care of in a timely manner. Marcos and his team did great work. They were respectful and worked very clean (even making sure to thoroughly clean up everything when done).Will definately use them again

I wanted to take a moment to personally thank Genstar for the incredible work they did on our pavers. The results truly exceeded our expectations, and we are absolutely thrilled with how everything turned out. Their attention to detail, craftsmanship, and dedication to getting the job done right did not go unnoticed. From the preparation to the final touches, everything was handled with professionalism and care. It's clear that they take great pride in their work, and it shows in every stone you laid. It’s not always easy to find a crew that is both hardworking and easy to communicate with, but you all managed to strike that perfect balance. They manage it all, showing up daily and on time, keeping the homeowners in the loop, and making sure that you’re happy each step of the way. Thank you again for a job well done. We won’t hesitate to recommend your services to others—and you’ll definitely be the first we call for any future projects. Most importantly, they make you feel like family!!

We had a bad experience with a previous contractor. Genstar removed all the bad pavers and redid the work. The difference is night and day. The crew was professional, the work top notch. They even did a few extra things that we did not ask them to. I'd definitely use them again. Highly recommended.

We do not usually post reviews, but had to take the opportunity to post about our positive experience with Genstar Masonry. We recently completed a full back and front yard demo/renovation project. Genstar went above and beyond from start to finish. They discussed our vision for the project and carried it to fruition. Their patience and responsiveness in answering questions was unmatched. Mike and Scott were a pleasure to work with and did everything they could to ensure we were happy. They helped us plan a design within our budget and began the job by the agreed upon start date. Their crew showed up on time each day as promised. All workers were respectful and beyond hard-working, willingly working through a 90 degree heat wave in order to stay on track! Christian, the lead mason, communicated with the homeowner throughout the job and was able to solve unexpected circumstances that came up. Each day, the owners were on site, making sure the job was progressing as planned. Genstar coordinated with their electrician, Adam, who produced reasonably priced, quality work as well. Genstar had the full job finished within one week and it looks amazing! Upon completion, the crew cleaned up and even power washed the street! The company owners completed a final walkthrough with the homeowner at the conclusion to ensure everything was to satisfaction. Having completed a full dormer in the past, we have worked with many companies. Trust us when we say that Genstar’s service and workmanship is unsurpassed. Do not hesitate, Genstar is the company you want completing your masonry projects!

Last week, I started redoing the front&back patios& driveway and it was completed perfectly in just 4 days. Including owner Scott, about 8 team members came, and they were very professional. They managed the workload well, and the project finished faster than expected. They also kept the schedule and communicated well throughout. It’s no wonder they have such a good reputation. They also offer a lifetime warranty if any issues come up which made me very trustworthy, so I definitely want to recommend them to people around me.지난주에 앞&뒤 패시오&드라이브웨이 공사를 했어요. 급하게 진행된건인데도 빨리 스케쥴이 잡혔고 오너인 스캇을 포함해, 실제로 일하는 팀원들이 8명정도 왔는데 아주 프러페셔널하고 작업배분을 잘해서 공사가 깔끔하고 빨리 끝났어요. 공사 시간도 잘지키고 뒷정리도 깨끗이하고 커뮤니케이션도 좋았습니다. 괜히 회사평판이 좋은게 아니었어요. 문제가 있으면 평생 워런티도 된다고 하니 믿음도 갔구요. 주변분들께 추천하고싶어요.

From the first meeting with Scott, we knew that we wanted Genstar to be the ones that did the complete makeover to the front of our house. Mike and Scott listened to our ideas and made them come to life in a way that we couldn’t have even imagined! The whole team was clean, attentive to detail and answered any questions we had along the way. To say we are thrilled with the final product would be a complete understatement. Thank you so much to the entire team at Genstar for making our house into more than what we dreamt of! We are in love!

Our yard is unrecognizable- in the best way possible.We wholeheartedly recommend Genstar's services - you won't be disappointed. We're glad we found them- you will be too!

We had the pleasure of meeting Scott, Mike, and Tom from Genstar and proceeded to do our project with them. Their professionalism and expertise made this project easy. Genstar has a limitless crew, from masonry, carpenters, plumbers, electricians, to landscapers, each one an expert in their field. We were impressed with the time frame they completed this project. With Genstar, if you can imagine it, they can create it. Scott, Mike and Tom were available at anytime to address our needs. Genstar uses the best quality materials and it shows in the results. I would choose Genstar every time!

You never know what you're getting when it comes to hiring someone to do work around your house, but with Genstar you don't have to worry! We were nervous at first, but Scott and Mike walked us through the process, answered all our questions, gave us ideas/recommendations, and listened to our concerns. Their showroom is awesome and everything is paved with the different pavers so you can see what it would look like. The guys that came to do the work were hardworking and did everything so well. Christian showed me around when they were close to finishing and because I am very detailed oriented and a perfectionist, I pointed out little things and he would fix it for me with no problem. After they were done, they cleaned up EVERYTHING! They didn't want to leave a trace of dirt behind. They even power washed my front walkway that I have been dying to power wash (I didn't even ask them to) and the backyard is where I got the work done! Everything looks amazing. They got the job done right away. Their prices are fair and for the work they produce, it's worth it! You are in great hands with Scott, Mike, and their guys.

A true experience of professionals from start to finish, and beyond. Mike and Scott, the whole Genstar crew treated us like friends and family they’ve known for years, which relieved any stress or anxiety we had as homeowners making an investment on our property. The scheduling of the project, efficiency when the boots were in the ground and the putting the yard back together for presentation was exactly what we expected with our high standards. They set the bar high on professionalism, as it should be on LI. We are looking forward to the next phase of our outdoor oasis. Can't recommend them enough.

Genstar Masonry recently did extensive masonry work on our home, transforming it from an ordinary looking backyard to an exquisite outdoor oasis! This included the demolition of old concrete around an inground pool, installation of new pavers, removing an old brick accent boarder around the front landscaping and replacing it with new pavers, installation of pet-friendly artificial turf, as well as a few miscellaneous items including repairs to the brick chimney and installing outdoor piping for a future sprinkler system. The crew was meticulous and was detail-oriented making sure to answer all questions and honoring our requests so that we would be extremely satisfied with their work. The owners were onsite daily to ensure that we were kept updated on the project. They also paid attention to our requests and/or questions so that we would be totally satisfied with the work they did. Since the job lasted many days, at the end of each day, the crew made sure to clean up before leaving. On the last day, they cleaned up every speck of dirt and debris leaving our property immaculate.We highly recommend Genstar Masonry to anyone in need of masonry work.

Since we moved in, our backyard has been an eyesore to say the least. With a little TLC we were able to get it decent, but our busy schedules made maintenance difficult. Searching Google we found GENSTAR Masonry and Landscaping to be top rated coming up #1 in Hardscape Masonry in our area. We were skeptical that they would take on a job like ours after seeing their extensive skills with larger projects. We were pleasantly surprised after expressing our specific needs and concerns they said yes and were able to schedule quickly given our time constraints. From the start Scott and Mike were friendly, insightful and showed clear expertise in their field. There workers were professional, punctual, respectful, considerate of our time and neighbors. We are 100% pleased with the work GENSTAR Masonry provided. It came out amazing and we truly love it!

I cant express how happy my family and I are with the job that Mike and Scott and the Genstar Team did with our yard. Genstar had revamped the front of our house a couple of years ago and we loved it so much (and get so many compliments from passers by) that there was no question who we would call to help us with our yard. We have two big dogs that are part of our family but over time they killed all the grass. Scott and Mike came and helped us design the patio and the rest of the yard, and also helped us decide on pea gravel for the dogs. The finished yard is SPECTACULAR! I shed tears of joy when I saw it. Now we can have have the dogs outside and us humans get to enjoy it too! Scott and Mike are the ultimate professionals and so are their team, courteous, on time, hard working and they leave the place cleaner than when they arrived. I cannot praise or refer them enough! Thank you Mike and Scott and Genstar Team for giving us such a wonderful yard that we can spend family time and make memories in.

Genstar was fantastic to work with from beginning to end. Mike, Scott, and Tommy were clear, timely, and professional in all of their communication. The crew arrived on schedule, quickly removed our old patio and deck, and expertly installed the new brickwork. Their attention to detail and helpful guidance throughout the process made everything smooth and stress-free. They answered all my questions, offered great suggestions, and left the yard and driveway spotless. We are thrilled with the final result — the new patio looks beautiful! They were also incredibly personable — I felt like I made a few new friends along the way. Customer service was on point.

We don’t usually write reviews, but we had to make an exception for Genstar Masonry because they absolutely exceeded our expectations! This past September, we hired them for a major backyard transformation, and the results were nothing short of amazing.Our project included installing a new patio, shed, pavilion with a fireplace, outdoor kitchen w/ grille and pizza oven, and a complete revamp of our pool—everything from marble dusting to updating skimmers, returns, plumbing, and relocating equipment.We were initially undecided about the design, materials, and colors, but Mike and Scott guided us every step of the way. They were honest, knowledgeable, and always available to provide advice and recommendations. They even met us at the stone yard to review our options and helped us refine our vision. No question or idea was too small or too crazy—they listened and offered practical solutions every time.Throughout the entire project, the Genstar team was professional, meticulous, and always accessible. They managed every detail with care and precision, completing the entire project in just five weeks!Our backyard is now a dream oasis, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. If you’re considering updating your garden, patio, driveway, or any outdoor space, we wholeheartedly recommend Genstar Masonry. Their craftsmanship and customer service are second to none.A huge thank you to Mike, Scott, and the entire Genstar team—you’ve truly made our dream backyard a reality!

Genstar recently completed a backyard makeover for us. We were initially back and forth whether we should have the work done. Mike, Tommy and Scott came the first time to meet with me and immediately knew what needed to be done and knew what I wanted before I did. They came back a second time to meet with my husband and I together. My husband needed a little convincing, but they took care of that for me! We agreed on a start date and were told 2-3 weeks, which also included replumbing and relining the pool. Started even a little earlier than planned and demo, pool and brick installation was finished in 2 weeks.The crew showed up on time everyday and were the hardest working and happiest crew we’ve ever had. Mike, Scott and Tommy were available at any time of day or night no matter how ridiculous my questions/concerns may have been. We cannot say enough positive things about everyone at Genstar.

I must say, working with Genstar was Absolutely perfect. We wanted our backyard to be more usable for our kids and for entertaining. We are not Artisitic people. We had no vision. Unfortunately we had a tremendous slope, and half the yard was not usable. Mike and Scott came over and had a vision we had not seen. Genstar took the time to explain the Comprehensive approach to their plan and it was greatly Appreciated. They walked us through each piece of material to be used and reviewed every level of options from stone to decking, lighting, and landscaping. They then laid out their Vision. Genstar leveled the whole yard and created an open area for Athletic play. They created a Seating area around a Fire Table which they designed, a Newly Designed Deck, Custom Fencing, enough Lighting to make the Nights look like Daytime. Landscaping completed their Vision. Their Crew of Guys were early every day. Clean is an understatement. The equipment they have is top of the line, with serious Earth Moving power. Mike and Scott were constantly onsite, double checking every measurement every day. They kept us updated as to the expectations of the next day, and then followed up confirming completion. We are 1000pct Satisfied and Appreciative. I’ve already referred Genstar to multiple others. I look forward to referring them again.

Genstar recently waterproofed the front porch walls and foundation, as well as the interior garage and boiler room of my mother’s home. They did an unbelievably efficient, thorough and professional job that resulted in all areas looking virtually brand new. Scott M. was on site and available at a moment’s notice and tended to every concern and detail that came up - both expected and unexpected. He and his crew, particularly his crew manager, Alex, were patient, thoughtful and kind to my mother and answered and addressed every question she and I had. On top of that, they did an amazing job on the waterproofing, demo and reinstall of the porch, garage and foundation areas at the cost they promised. We recommend Genstar without reservation, based on cost, performance, and even more so on their customer service and attention to detail.

I recently hired Genstar Masonry to pave my backyard, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! From start to finish, the team was professional, efficient, and detail-oriented. They took the time to understand exactly what I wanted, and the finished work turned out even better than I imagined. The paving is clean, precise, and has completely transformed the space.The crew was punctual, respectful of my property, and made sure everything was cleaned up afterward. It’s clear they take great pride in their craftsmanship. I would highly recommend Genstar Masonry to anyone looking for quality work and reliable service.

The guys at Genstar did an awesome job on our pavers. The price they quoted from the beginning did not change. The materials they used were all high quality. The work their installers did was quick and done well. I am also very pleased how they cleaned up after themselves. Thanks appreciate the great workmanship.

Mike & Scott at Genstar are the best to work with. They just completed a second large job at my house which was done in 2 days. Their workers are skilled and work efficiently. My pavers, porch, stones on house, stepping stones and gravel all look sharp. They have added some extra details that weren’t included to both of my jobs just to make everything look even better. When I brought up a concern that I had, they were quick to assure me and they 100% took care of it. I would highly recommend these guys to any family and friends looking for masonry work in the area.

I contacted Ralph Raymond after getting many estimates from many contractors in the Nassau County area. His price is the most affordable. Ralph & Mike came and they started work early in the morning. His staff was amazing especially Billy. Answer all of my questions. Very pleasant. They were fast, efficient & very pleasant to deal with. They thoroughly clean my front & backyard after they finish. My pavers look amazing. Will definitely use them in the future for future projects. Thank you Ralph, Mike, Billy and all of the staff at Genstar Masonary.

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Many thumbs up to Genstar Masonry. I had a huge project that included tearing out and rebuilding a new stoop, driveway, walkways, and patios. From the start to finish, the entire team worked hard to make my dream come true. Scott was very knowledgeable and gave me ideas to make my project design even better. Vinny went above and beyond to make sure everything was done to perfection. And Christian and his crew worked tirelessly for over a week and I could not thank them enough. They laid every single paver with a level and I was very impressed with how they took such care in their work. I know I have high standards when it comes to these things and they were very patient with any questions/issues that arose and were very quick to rectify it. I highly recommend Genstar Masonry for all your paver/concrete/etc needs.

After living in our home for years, we made the decision to replace the front stoop, driveway, façade and entire patio. We knew this project would be a significant investment in time and money therefore we began obtaining estimates over a period of 6-12mos. Not only were we looking for quality construction, but we were also taking into consideration time and staying within budget. We were referred to Genstar and Mike by very good friends of ours who had their entire patio redesigned by their crew. From our initial meeting with Mike, we felt as if we were meeting with a friend, who listened as we explained what we were looking to do and gave suggestions without the "upsell." The estimate was provided to us within a few days, and broke down the entire project for us to see where we had some flexibility. After choosing Genstar, we met with Scott who helped in the selection of material and Vinny who helped with the design and layout. From Day 1 until the last day of the project, the entire crew was great. Friendly, efficient and neat, they worked together in tandem to create the vision we had for our home. Once the project was complete, the end result surpassed our expectations. The attention to detail was evident. We love how they transformed our home and get compliments from so many neighbors and those walking by. We had already recommended them to those looking to complete future projects and will only recommend them moving forward.

Mike and his team did a fantastic job on my patio and fire pit! I found them through a recommendation on a Facebook moms group - and they totally delivered! They came immediately to give me a quote and talk design. We don’t have a huge yard are we’re looking to maximize space for kids stuff, entertaining and BBQ - and they helped us to that with style! They were quick, reasonably priced, super responsive, and everyone was really pleasant to deal with. We’ve already gotten lots of compliments and definitely recommend them!

I didn’t think my backyard was capable of being transformed to look half way decent. With Ralph and Mikes designs and Billy and his crews’ incredible work; my yard looks absolutely amazing. I didn’t think it was possible. I could not have went with a better company to do my pavers. Not only the are they the best at what they do but they are honest and compassionate. They went above and beyond in many ways. I’m looking forward to having them come back to add onto the pavers and redo my driveway In addition, I initially hired a company that basically stole money from me AND destroyed my yard. Genstar came in and turned the whole thing around, cleaned up his mess and made my backyard look amazing. They also worked on my neighbors yard and they are beyond satisfied. Thank you Genstar!!

The team at Genstar did a fantastic job and I highly recommend them. I had 4 contractors give me quotes and they beat them all and offered better design solutions for challenges with our side stoop and landing. Mike offered great guidance to fit the job in our budget with honest suggestions so we didn't get in over our heads. Vinny designed a great layout to flow with our existing deck and landscaping. The whole crew was very polite, friendly and courteous to my family while they were here. At the end when we reviewed the completed work, they went above and beyond to make sure we were happy and Omar came back to put the finishing touches we asked for. I hire alot of contractors and I have had communication problems with most of them. You won't be disappointed working with Genstar. Mike responded the same day to every question, change request or concern we had to make sure we were informed and comfortable. Thank you Genstar for a job well done! I will be in touch soon for our next project.

I had the absolute best experience with Genstar Masonry Design. They are masters of the trade. Scott & Mike are the nicest guys you will meet. One thing that stood out is that they really want you to be happy. They genuinely care about their clients. They put my mind at ease. I’m very picky, indecisive, and difficult to impress. From start to finish, they guided us through the whole process from helping us pick the perfect stone to answering my 100 questions. Quality of work wise..Nelson and the guys are meticulous and go above and beyond to make it PERFECT. The workmanship is incredible. They are artists! They are also super neat and clean up everything. They are reliable and honest. This is the kind of company you never have to worry about..they make you feel comfortable and make your dream project a reality. If I could give them 10 stars I would.

They were with us every step of the way. If I had a question, they always were accessible, understanding and responsive throughout the entire process. I am personally not an easy person to impress. Not only did they meet my expectations, they in all honesty exceeded them. Their work wasn’t good, it was phenomenal. Every single paver was meticulously placed so that the look was perfect. They took care of moving my fences, the pool, the lighting and of course the aforementioned pavers. They literally built my perfect oasis.
