We were planning on getting a swimming pool for many years, and therefore had many, estimates by other pool companies. I originally had no idea that Gappsi installed pools, until a friend recommended Giuseppe. We called on a Saturday morning to set up an estimate and Giuseppe showed up at 2 pm that day! Because of Giuseppe’s clear vision and honesty in explaining the cost of everything, we were sold. We started the permit process and the pool was started 1 week after getting the permits. We have 4 children who were more than anxious for their pool to be done. The hole was dug on May 5th and my kids were swimming in their pool on June 6th. As for the paving….the job was far superior to any other paving job we have had done. The men were meticulous and extremely professional…every cut is perfect. As a matter of fact, I don’t even want the loop-loc cover because I don’t want metal screws drilled into my perfectly beautiful patio! I have recommended Gappsi to my friends and family and will continue to do so. Thank you Giuseppe for the beautiful addition to our back yard! The Morawski Family

Swimming pool, spa and patio saint James Smithtown long island
Well done Giuseppe! My wife and I were interested in a backyard swimming pool, Spa and patio design. We considered this to be a major investment to our home and were unsure of the material, layout and design to use so we relied on Giuseppe’s talent. He took the time to explain what materials were available, the type of layout that could be accommodated in the space and a drawing. We were very pleased with the outcome. The multilevel patio really pulls together the beauty of the entire backyard. Once onsite, Giuseppe exceeded our expectations by delivering additional design elements to enhance the overall layout at no charge. We would recommend him highly as our neighbors have also become a customer

Happy customers of natural travertine paving stones long island
Last summer, Gappsi designed and installed the patioscape around our new in-ground pool and the results are beautiful.
We had considered cement pavers, but Guiseppe and his professional staff suggested travertine pavers as an alternative. As we walked around his indoor and outdoor showroom, we were very impressed with the beauty of the natural stone.
After considering the project for some time, with the Gappsi team patiently answering all our questions, we decided on the Noce-colored, 6×12 travertine pavers. We chose the travertine because we loved the look, its naturally slip resistance and its coolness to the touch even in full sun on 90-degree days. We selected the same travertine paver for the full-nosed coping for the smoothness of the finish. A large waterfall anchors the pool, and the sound of its cascading waters contributes greatly to the relaxing atmosphere.
One of our project’s challenges was the downward slope of our yard. The Gappsi crew did a fantastic job leveling out the area surrounding the pool to ensure the integrity of the patio. Giuseppi designed and created a 2-foot retaining and sitting wall with Hanover stones that perfectly complements the travertine patio. The centerpiece of the patio is the expansive firepit, also made of Hanover stones. The firepit allowed us to use our pool area long after the swimming season passed.
As the last piece of the project, Gappsi removed an old wooden deck off the sliding doors of the house and created lovely steps matching Hanover walls of the patio for a seamless hardscape.
Working with Giuseppe was a pleasure and we couldn’t be happier with our Gappsi patio.

Exquisite Natural Stone Surfaces: Textures, Finishes, Long Island
By Giuseppe Abbrancati
The texture of a pavement can set the mood for the environment in which it is used.
The floor is the main element of an outdoor patio. Gappsi as designed and installed thousands of patios, swimming pool patios, walkways, and driveways. Swimming pool patio are usually used bear feet and in the summer months the ideal stone for that environment would be travertine or limestones. Travertine or limestones do not get hot in sunny open areas like swimming pools are. Also a pool are is a more casual and also an exotic environment and the travertine or limestone colors are very soft happy colors that bring harmony to people that enjoy sitting in the out doors in the summer months. The texture of travertine is very pleasant to the touch and enjoyable to walk on. Many textures are available with travertine and limestone and the ability of Gappsi designers to create the most distinctive graphics or unique floors installations are the result of experience and training from the best most experienced installer and designer of the 21 century. Giuseppe Abbrancati recognized by manufactures leathers and industry standard ICPI and Concrete Magazine with 12 consecutive awards for creating the most recognized and published installation in North America. Paving for driveways and vehicle used areas have to be much more durable to wear due to the weight of the vehicles driving over them and the friction of tires. Paving stones used on driveways have to be more durable and much harder. Gappsi stone selection has the most durable granite pavers and limestone that can be used on driveways and commercial veicle used areas. Ranging in colors of beige/peach look to grey/green to gray/brown. The Gappsi stone collection is definitely the most beautiful natural stone selection of exquisite surfaces.
