Santarella Masonry helps New Jersey property owners eliminate water problems and upgrade outdoor spaces with custom paver patios, walkways,driveways, stonework, and yard drainage solutions. From Springfield to Short Hills and surrounding NJ towns, our team combines drainage expertise with old-world masonry craftsmanship.
Whether you want a new paver patio, a winding walkway or a complete outdoor living space, Santarella creates durable, low-maintenance hardscapes built for New Jersey weather. We work with concrete pavers, bluestone, Belgium block and other quality materials to design patios, walkways, steps, landings and retaining walls that look great and last.
Standing water, soggy lawns and basement leaks are common problems for New Jersey property owners. Santarella designs and installs custom yard drainage systems including French drains, channel drains, downspout extensions and grading to move water away from your home and protect your foundation. We also provide basement and foundation waterproofing to keep New Jersey basements dry year-round.
Our team handles all types of residential and commercial masonry work, from steps and sidewalks to driveways, stone walls and foundations. By combining masonry, hardscaping and drainage, we deliver complete solutions for New Jersey properties instead of temporary fixes.
When projects call for large-scale residential paver patios or full driveway paving, we may coordinate with trusted partners such as Northeastern PMC, Driveway King, and RF Landscape Construction and Yard Drainage to make sure every part of your outdoor space is handled by a specialist.

"Before speaking to Carmine, we met with a lot of other masons. No one else was as inventive in creating such a unique space. Carmine was able to incorporate a gorgeous patio and pathway into our existing green landscape. The results are simply breathtaking!"- Madison, NJ

Their team focuses on proper base preparation, drainage, and curb appeal so your new driveway looks great and stands up to New Jersey weather.

Santarella Masonry is based in Springfield, NJ and serves homeowners and businesses throughout the surrounding New Jersey communities inclduing:
The best yard drainage solution depends on your property’s grading and soil, but common options in New Jersey include French drains, channel drains along patios or driveways, extensions on downspouts and re-grading low spots. We inspect your yard, identify how water is moving and design a drainage system that keeps water away from your home and foundation.
Most New Jersey paver patio projects take between a few days and a week, depending on the size, access and weather. The process includes excavation, base preparation, setting the pavers and finishing edges and joints. Larger patios, complex designs or projects that also include steps and retaining walls can take longer.
Yes. Santarella specializes in projects that combine drainage, waterproofing and masonry work. We can correct yard drainage, protect your foundation and then build steps, patios, walkways or retaining walls as part of one coordinated project, which is often more efficient and effective for New Jersey properties.
