Replacing a cracked concrete slab
A poured slab that's cracked and sunk in spots can't be patched so it looks right. We take it out and lay pavers, which can be lifted and reset if a spot ever dips.

What goes into a paver driveway
Driveway pavers in West Palm Beach, FL are concrete pavers set on a packed stone base and a thin bed of sand, so the surface carries your cars without sinking into dips. We tear out the old driveway, build the base, lay and lock the pavers, and clean up.
Most calls start with a concrete driveway that's cracked, sunk at the edges or holding water, or a homeowner who wants room for another car. The price moves with the square footage, whether an old driveway has to come out, how deep the base needs to go and the paver you pick, while the schedule mostly turns on the weather and whether the street end needs a permit. I come out, measure it and give you the plan and the figure for your driveway.
The owner gives the estimate
I come out to look at the driveway and price it myself, and our own masons do the work, so the person who made the plan is the one answering for it.
A plan you can count on
I spent years running schedules for a busy construction company. We're known for showing up on the day we planned, and if your job is bigger or smaller than you feared, you hear it first.
In business since 2017
I started this company in West Palm Beach in 2017 doing the work myself. We work across the cities around it in Palm Beach County, backed by our satisfaction guarantee.
How we build a paver driveway
Most of the work is under the pavers, so my estimate spells out the base we're putting down and how we pack it. We have the utility lines marked before anyone digs, tear out the old driveway and dig down to firm ground. Then we spread crushed stone in layers and pack each one with a plate compactor, because loose stone is what turns into ruts later. We level a thin bed of sand on top, lay the pavers in your pattern, cut them to fit and set an edge restraint, a border that keeps them from creeping outward. Last, we sweep sand into the joints and run the compactor over the whole surface so the pavers lock together, then haul off the old concrete.
A driveway often touches other work. Where the yard drops off beside it, a low wall keeps the soil from washing out from under the edge, and that's our retaining wall construction work. If brick steps, planters or the front of the house look tired next to new pavers, masonry restoration brings them back in line, and we can plan both on the same visit.
When pavers are the right call for a driveway
Widening for another car
Adding a parking strip beside the drive is a common call. We dig and pack the new section the same way as the rest, so the old and new parts stay even.
Moving water away from the garage
Water sitting at the garage door usually means the old slab slopes the wrong way. We set the slope in the base itself, so rain runs toward the street or the yard.
Tying in the front walk
Pavers can carry on from the driveway to the front door in the same color and pattern, so the drive and the walk read as one job and get built on one schedule.

Send the form and we'll get back to you within one business day to set a time. I come out, measure the driveway and give you a free estimate on site, with no pressure to book.
Your rough square footage
Length times width of the driveway is plenty to start with. It tells us what size job we're talking about, and I measure it properly when I come out.
Whether an old driveway comes out
Tell us if there's concrete or asphalt to tear out first. Removal is its own part of the estimate, and it changes how long our crew is at your house.
Which street it meets
Give us the street your driveway runs onto. Who owns that road tells us which office handles the street end of the job, and we look it up before I come out.
Paver, wall and masonry examples
Look through paver colors, laying patterns, borders and nearby walls, then point out what you like when we meet to plan your driveway.
Common questions about paver driveways
Straight answers on price, permits at the street, permeable pavers and the base, the things homeowners ask most before they book.
How much does a paver driveway cost in West Palm Beach?
An installed sand-set concrete paver driveway in West Palm Beach usually runs about $14 to $17 per square foot, plus demolition if an old driveway has to come out. That's the going rate in the area, not our quote. Setting the pavers on a concrete slab instead costs more per square foot. Your own number comes from the estimate.
Do I need a permit for a paver driveway in West Palm Beach?
You need a right-of-way permit from Palm Beach County's Land Development Division when your driveway connects to a county-maintained thoroughfare road or needs a culvert, a pipe under the drive. If the city owns your street, the county sends you to the city, whose Building Division takes questions at 561.805.6700. We check with the office that covers your address, pull the permit and set up the inspections.
Can I run pavers all the way to the street in West Palm Beach?
On a county right-of-way you can, but only with a recorded removal agreement, which county staff sign and which makes you responsible for keeping up those pavers. The county's road atlas or online GIS map can show who owns the road in front of your house, and we confirm it when we check on the permit.
Are permeable pavers a good choice for my driveway?
Only if the groundwater on your lot sits deep enough. Federal paving guidance says permeable pavers, which let rain soak through, generally don't go where the seasonal water table is less than 2 feet down, though they've been used on sandy coastal ground in other states. You can drive on them as soon as they're laid, and sweeping or vacuuming keeps them draining.
What should I ask when comparing paver driveway bids?
Ask what base depth each bid includes and whether the crew is certified by CMHA, the concrete paver trade group, which recommends installers who've trained and shown they know paver methods. Trade guidance calls for at least 6 inches of base on well-drained soil, more as traffic, soil, drainage and climate demand. We're licensed and fully insured, and our base depth is on the estimate.
