Paver contractor in Lakewood Ranch, FL.

Installed paver pricing depends on the surface and material. Our published ranges start around $14–$20 per square foot for a standard patio or walkway, $15–$22 for a standard paver driveway, and $16–$24 for a concrete-paver pool deck. Travertine, premium units, demolition, drainage correction, base repair, coping, borders, and sealing can raise the total. Every quote is measured and itemized.

Concrete pavers offer the widest mix of colors, shapes, and price points for driveways and patios. Clay brick holds its color and suits traditional homes. Light travertine is a premium pool-deck choice because it stays more comfortable under bare feet. The right unit depends on vehicle load, sun, drainage, pool chemistry, HOA palette, maintenance preference, and budget.

Many Lakewood Ranch villages require ARC approval for driveway material, paver color, pattern, borders, and sometimes impervious coverage. County review may also apply when a project changes the driveway apron, right-of-way, drainage, or footprint. We review the community requirements supplied for the property and identify permit questions before installation begins.

Pavers cost more up front but flex with soil movement and can be lifted and reset without a visible patch. Concrete usually costs less and installs faster but relies heavily on correct base preparation and joint layout to control cracking. We install both systems and compare lifetime repair, maintenance, HOA rules, drainage, and the look you want before recommending one.

The base is designed for the load and soil, not one universal depth. Driveways need a deeper structural section than patios or walkways; our local driveway builds commonly use an 8–12-inch compacted section with driveway-rated pavers. Patios and walkways use a lighter section when soil and drainage allow. We verify excavation, compaction, bedding, slope, and edge restraint before handover.

Yes. Paver restoration can include lifting settled units, repairing and compacting the base, replacing damaged pavers, correcting edges, deep cleaning, removing efflorescence or failed sealer, re-sanding joints, and applying a compatible penetrating or film-forming sealer. Pool decks usually call for a breathable, slip-conscious finish rather than a glossy driveway product.
