Massapequa Installation I was tired of my asphalt and cobblestone driveway, but really did not like the boring and uniform look of most new driveways and patios. I was lucky to find Giuseppe’s showroom on Jericho Turnpike. Giuseppe listened to me and turned my wishes into reality. He is a true artisan with an eye for aesthetics. He invented a unique installation technique that brings his designs to life. My selected pavers were melded from two different styles, ensuring me a unique random pattern. A trademark of his is the incorporation of curving free-form borders. He designed and installed a gently flowing driveway and patio that is admired by all who see them. Giuseppe undoubtedly exceeded my expectations. I truly consider this to be one of my best home improvement decisions. I have no doubt the value of my home increased significantly more than this project cost me. Jerry Kennedy

The Backyard of our Dreams From the beginning to the very end and even now, we couldn’t be more thrilled with Gappsi. They took a barely adequate backyard and turned it into a magnificent retreat for our family. The pool, hot tub,, bi level patio, pool deck and landscaping came out beyond our expectations. The compliments we recieve are never ending and those who saw the before, cant believe the after. A comment we frequently receive is “you are the only people we know who put in a pool and your backyard looks bigger” The staff were here everyday all day, and were the utmost professionals.Giuseppe was hands on and available at all times. We were so thrilled with how our backyard came out we followed it up with Gappsi doing our front stoop, walkway, driveway and landscaping, and again couldn’t be happier. We would highly recommend Gappsi and often do..

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. Giuseppe 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. Bob and Nancy

RESORT LIVING AT HOME Guiseppe and his staff at Gappsi helped us to create our own vacation resort right in our backyard! The quality, attention to detail, and craftsmanship of his work was truly outstanding. He and his team were exceptionally professional and respectful as well as attentive to all of our needs and concerns. We would highly recommend him over and over again with no hesitation whatsoever.

Gappsi was recommended to us by a friend that also had their swimming pool installed by Gappsi. We had a 16×34 swimming pool built in our back yard, completed with moca travertine in a French pattern around the pool and 6×12 travertine for the walkway from the driveway to the back yard. We decided to install an automated swimming pool cover for the pool after it was explained to us about all the benefits. We are very happy with the results and look forward to years of fun with our pool!
