Hear from Our Customers
You know that feeling when you walk into someone’s backyard and think “this is exactly what I want”? That’s what happens when a patio is done right.
Most patios either look like an afterthought or fall apart after a few seasons. Yours won’t. When we’re done, you’ll have a space that works with your home’s architecture, handles Long Island weather without issues, and gets used regularly instead of sitting empty.
The difference is in the details most contractors skip. Proper drainage so water doesn’t pool. Base preparation that prevents settling and cracking. Materials chosen for durability, not just the lowest price. You get an outdoor space that adds real value to your property and becomes the place your family actually wants to spend time.
Corsino Construction Corp has been building patios in Suffolk County since 2000. We’re not the company that shows up, takes your money, and leaves you with problems six months later.
Every project uses our own licensed professionals – no subcontractors who might cut corners when we’re not looking. Fixed pricing means you know exactly what you’re paying upfront, with no surprise charges or “extras” that somehow weren’t mentioned in the original quote.
Lindenhurst homeowners choose us because we keep job sites clean and organized. You can live comfortably in your home while we work, and when we’re done, your property looks better than when we started. That’s how you build a reputation that lasts over twenty years.
First, we come out to see your space and understand what you’re trying to accomplish. Not just the size and shape, but how you actually want to use the area. That conversation shapes everything else.
Next comes the planning phase. We handle permits if needed, work out the drainage requirements, and choose materials that make sense for your specific situation. You’ll know the timeline, the cost, and exactly what to expect before any work begins.
During construction, we prep the base properly – this is where most problems start if it’s done wrong. Then we install your patio using techniques that ensure it stays level and stable for decades. Throughout the process, you’ll know what’s happening and when. No wondering if we’re coming back tomorrow or next week.

Every patio we build in Lindenhurst is designed for the specific conditions here in Suffolk County. That means accounting for freeze-thaw cycles that can crack inferior installations, drainage patterns that handle our heavy rains, and materials that won’t fade or deteriorate under constant sun exposure.
You get options that make sense – from traditional concrete that can last decades with proper installation, to pavers that offer design flexibility and easy repair if needed. We’ll explain the real differences between materials, not just push whatever gives us the highest markup.
Local homeowners also appreciate features that extend the usable season. Proper lighting for evening use, space planning that accommodates outdoor furniture, and integration points for features like fire pits or outdoor kitchens you might add later. Your patio becomes a true extension of your living space, not just a slab of concrete behind your house.
Most homeowners in Lindenhurst spend between $8,000 and $15,000 for a professionally installed patio, depending on size and materials. Concrete patios typically run $12-18 per square foot installed, while paver patios range from $18-25 per square foot.
The price difference comes down to complexity and longevity. A simple concrete patio is less expensive upfront but offers fewer design options. Pavers cost more initially but are easier to repair and offer more visual appeal, which is why they typically provide better resale value.
We provide fixed pricing upfront so you know exactly what you’re paying. No surprises, no “extras” that somehow weren’t included in the original quote.
Concrete patios are typically the most cost-effective option and extremely durable when installed properly. They handle freeze-thaw cycles well and can last 20-30 years with minimal maintenance. The downside is limited design flexibility and difficulty making repairs if cracking occurs.
Paver patios offer more design options and are easier to repair – you can replace individual pavers if needed. They also provide better traction when wet and don’t show stains as readily. However, they require more maintenance to keep joints filled and can shift if the base isn’t prepared correctly.
For Lindenhurst’s climate, both options work well when installed by experienced contractors who understand proper base preparation and drainage requirements. The choice usually comes down to your budget and design preferences.
Most patio installations in Lindenhurst take 3-5 days for completion, depending on size and complexity. Simple concrete patios can often be finished in 2-3 days, while elaborate paver designs might take a full week.
Weather plays a role – we won’t pour concrete if rain is expected within 24 hours, and excessive heat can affect curing times. Spring and fall are ideal seasons for patio work in Suffolk County, as temperatures are moderate and rainfall is typically less frequent.
We schedule projects to minimize disruption to your daily routine. You’ll know our timeline upfront and receive updates if weather or other factors require adjustments. Most homeowners are surprised how quickly their outdoor space transforms.
Permit requirements depend on your patio’s size, type, and location on your property. Simple paver patios typically don’t require permits since they’re not considered permanent structures. Concrete patios over certain sizes usually do need permits.
If your patio includes electrical work for lighting, plumbing for outdoor kitchens, or gas lines for fire features, additional permits are required. We handle all permit applications and inspections as part of our service – you don’t need to navigate town hall bureaucracy.
The permit process in Lindenhurst typically takes 2-3 weeks, which we factor into project scheduling. It’s always better to do things properly than deal with issues later when you try to sell your home.
Concrete patios need minimal maintenance – annual cleaning and resealing every 3-5 years to prevent staining and weather damage. Check for small cracks each spring and seal them before they expand during freeze-thaw cycles.
Paver patios require more attention but are easier to repair. Plan on refreshing joint sand annually and power washing every 2-3 years. Individual pavers can be replaced if damaged, and periodic releveling may be needed in high-traffic areas.
Both types benefit from proper drainage maintenance. Keep gutters clean, ensure water flows away from the patio surface, and remove debris that might block drainage channels. With proper care, your patio will provide decades of reliable use.
Base preparation is where most DIY patio projects fail. Improper excavation, inadequate compaction, or poor drainage leads to settling, cracking, and water problems that are expensive to fix later. Professional contractors have the equipment and experience to do this critical work correctly.
We also understand local building codes, soil conditions, and climate factors that affect long-term performance. What works in other parts of the country might not be appropriate for Suffolk County’s freeze-thaw cycles and soil composition.
The cost difference between DIY and professional installation is often smaller than homeowners expect, especially when you factor in tool rental, material waste, and the time investment required. Plus, you get warranty protection and the peace of mind that comes with professional installation.
