Paver installation in Miami: driveways, walkways and roundabouts

Pavers are only as good as the base under them. We excavate, compact the limerock and bedding sand the way we build a road, then set and restrain the pavers so they stay flat under cars and South Florida rain.

Most sunken or wavy paver driveways were installed on thin, uncompacted base, without a concrete edge restraint, or without slope to drain. Water gets under the bedding sand, washes it out, and the pavers settle into ruts. We build the base in compacted lifts, slope it to drain away from the house, pour or set a solid edge restraint, screed the bedding sand, lay the pattern, compact it and sweep in joint sand.

We set brick pavers on public work too, including the truck apron on the Belle Meade Island roundabout for the City of Miami, where the pavers meet curved concrete restraint and fresh asphalt. That is the hardest joint in paving, and the same care goes into a residential driveway apron.

Pavers can also solve drainage: permeable pavers let water pass through into a stone base, which helps on lots where there is nowhere for runoff to go.

What we do

Paver driveways and aprons

Driveways and right-of-way aprons on compacted limerock base, with permit where required.

Walkways, patios and pool decks

Pedestrian paver areas with edge restraint and proper slope away from the house.

Plazas and decorative crosswalks

Commercial and municipal paver areas and crosswalk inlays.

Roundabout aprons

Brick truck aprons and splitter islands on traffic-calming projects.

Permeable pavers

Open-joint systems over stone base for on-site drainage.

Paver repair and releveling

Sunken areas lifted, base rebuilt, pavers reset and re-sanded.

For agencies and GCs

We install pavers as part of roadway and traffic-calming packages, alongside the curb, asphalt and drainage, so the transitions are built by one crew.

For homeowners and HOAs

For a driveway or walkway, we walk the property, check drainage and give you a written price that includes base, edge restraint and permit.

Where we have done it

Questions we get asked

Pavers, concrete or asphalt for my driveway?

Pavers cost more up front but can be lifted and reset if roots or settlement move them, and they look the best. Concrete is durable and low-maintenance. Asphalt is the most economical. See our driveway page for a full comparison.

Why did my old pavers sink?

Almost always base: too thin, not compacted, or washed out by water because of poor slope or missing edge restraint.

Do pavers need sealing?

Sealing is optional. It deepens color and helps lock joint sand, but needs to be redone periodically.

Do I need a permit?

Driveway aprons in the right-of-way do in most municipalities, and many cities require one for the whole driveway. We handle it.
