Driveways, Aprons & Belgian Block in Bridgehampton, NY
A driveway in Bridgehampton runs about $4–8 per square foot for crushed-bluestone gravel, $20–35 for pavers and $30–70 for a full Belgian-block surface, with block borders at $30–50 per linear foot (2026 Long Island contractor figures). The apron needs a permit from whoever owns the road: NYSDOT on Route 27 ($210, stamped plan), Suffolk County on county roads. We put Bridgehampton homeowners in touch with one licensed, insured mason who works the town and handles the base and the paperwork.

A driveway in Bridgehampton is a long one, and the apron at the road is a permit before it is a piece of stone. We put Bridgehampton homeowners in touch with one licensed, insured mason who works the town, knows whose road the apron meets, and builds the base the drive actually sits on.
Driveways in Bridgehampton: what's different here
Farmhouses and village Victorians along Main Street with brick stoops and old walls, estates on Ocean Road and around Mecox Bay with pool decks, gravel courts and long Belgian-block edges, and horse-country properties on the moraine north of the highway.
Bridgehampton has fast-draining outwash near the water and moraine till inland, and the base changes with it: a standard 4–6 inch base on the sand, a deeper base with drainage on the clay. Many drives here meet Montauk Highway or a county road, which is a state or county permit before the apron goes in.
In the historic parts of Bridgehampton, an apron, driveway or curb visible from the street needs review before the permit issues; the mason should raise it first.
The moraine that separates Noyac from Bridgehampton is where the glacial erratics are; north of the highway the ground is till and slope, south of it flat outwash running to Mecox Bay and Sagg Pond. Bridgehampton is in the Town of Southampton, whose Chapter 325 keeps structures 125 feet from wetlands, and Mecox Bay and Sagg Pond fall under the Town Trustees as well; a drive or terrace toward the water is a permit application first.
Permits in Bridgehampton run through the Town of Southampton Building Division; Main Street sits inside the Town's Bull's Head–Main Street Historic Overlay District, which carries its own design guidelines; the mason we put you in touch with handles the filing where one is required.

FAQ
Driveways questions
When is the best time of year for masonry work in the Hamptons?
Spring and early fall. The ground is workable, the temperatures suit curing, and crews are not yet booked by June. Summer works but the villages restrict hours: East Hampton Village allows weekdays 8am–6pm and Saturdays noon–4pm from May 15 to September 15, no Sundays; Southampton Village weekdays 8am–6pm and Saturdays 9am–5pm, no Sundays (a Saturday ban was proposed in July 2026); Sag Harbor weekdays 8am–7pm and Saturdays 9am–5pm; Sagaponack 7am–7pm, no Sundays. Mortar work stops when the air or the stone drops below 40°F unless materials are heated and the work is protected for 24–48 hours, so mortared walls, repointing and chimneys are April-to-November jobs; dry-set patios and dry-stacked walls can go on in winter when the ground is not frozen. Permits set the real calendar: 2–4 weeks in East Hampton Village, a reported 16–20 weeks in the Town.
How does Sag Harbor Masonry Co. work, and what does it cost me?
It costs homeowners nothing. You tell us about the project once, roughly sixty seconds: where the house is, what you want built or fixed, and when you want it done. We put you in touch with one licensed, insured mason who works your town and is right for the material and the job, and they call you within one business day to look at it and quote it directly. We are a Hamptons-only referral service, not a masonry contractor, and we are not connected to any stone yard or stone-veneer product of a similar name: one mason, and nobody else gets your number. Participating masons pay us a referral fee.
