Why Choose Us

Starkie Brothers Custom Landscaping stands out in hardscaping due to their tailored design process, premium materials, and comprehensive service approach, particularly for Long Island Homeowners. These techniques reflect our promise: quality construction that’s as practical as it is durable.  Whether you’re starting fresh or enhancing your property, we build with the future in mind. At Starkie Brothers Custom Landscaping, we build to last. Our commitment to durability and forward-thinking design sets us apart. 

Unlike competitors, we emphasize:

  • Personalized Design

    Each Hardscape project (e.g., patios, driveways, retaining walls) begins with detailed consultations and plans drawn to scale, ensuring your vision—whether for pool surround or entryways—is precisely executed.

  • Driveways

    We use 3500 psi poured concrete, ensuring your driveway can handle heavy loads and stand the test of time.

  • Entranceways

    All entranceways are reinforced with steel, providing extra strength and stability. 

  • Flat Work

    Our flat work is sleeved with 3-inch PVC pipe, allowing for easy access to future irrigation and electrical runs.  This means you can upgrade or maintain your property without hassle. 

  • Broad Expertise

    Beyond standard patios and walkways, we offer complex hardscapes like retaining walls, outdoor kitchens, fire pits, pergolas, and poolside masonry, integrating functionality and aesthetics for entertaining spaces.

  • Local Sourcing

    Our 30-acre farm in Jamesport, New York, supplies Long Island-grown plants to complement hardscapes, ensuring cohesive, sustainable designs that competitors with generic nursery stock can’t match.
