Picture stepping outside to your own private retreat every morning. No more staring at that unused patch of grass wondering what could be.
Your new patio becomes the place where coffee tastes better, conversations run deeper, and weekend barbecues actually happen. Florida’s year-round weather means you’ll use this space constantly – not just during “patio season.”
The right patio installation gives you decades of low-maintenance outdoor living. You get durability that handles Florida’s intense sun, sudden storms, and everything your family throws at it. Most importantly, you get a space that finally matches how you want to live.
We’ve been creating outdoor spaces in Citrus County since 1995. We’re not the newcomers trying to figure things out on your property.
As authorized contractors for Tremron, Flagstone, and Belgard, we work directly with the manufacturers who make the materials. That means better pricing, guaranteed availability, and access to products other contractors can’t get. We’re also the exclusive Seal ‘n Lock distributor in our county.
You’ll find us at community events, helping with hurricane cleanup, and supporting local programs because Inverness isn’t just where we work – it’s where we live. When you hire a family business that’s invested in this community for nearly three decades, you get contractors who care about their reputation on every street.
Your patio installation starts with an on-site consultation where we assess your space, drainage, and goals. No cookie-cutter solutions – every Inverness property has unique challenges and opportunities.
We handle all permits and design work upfront, so you know exactly what you’re getting before we break ground. Our crew excavates to proper depth, installs the base materials according to manufacturer specifications, and sets each paver with precision. The edges get secured, joints get filled, and everything gets sealed for maximum durability.
Most patio installations take 2-4 days depending on size and complexity. We clean up completely each day because we respect your property and your neighbors. You’ll see progress every day, and we’ll walk you through the final inspection so you understand how to maintain your investment for decades.

Your patio installation includes proper excavation, engineered base preparation, and professional-grade materials designed for Florida’s climate. We use pavers from Tremron, Flagstone, and Belgard – manufacturers who understand what works in our humidity and heat.
Inverness sits in Citrus County where soil conditions vary dramatically. Some areas have sandy soil that drains well, others have clay that holds water. We adjust our installation methods based on your specific property conditions, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Every project includes edge restraints, proper joint sand, and sealing when appropriate. We also handle any necessary drainage improvements because standing water destroys even the best patio installation. Your finished patio comes with clear maintenance instructions and our commitment to address any settling issues during the first year.
A properly installed paver patio in Inverness will last 25-30 years or more with minimal maintenance. The key is using the right materials and installation methods for Florida’s unique challenges.
Florida’s intense UV rays, sudden temperature changes, and heavy rains test every outdoor surface. Quality pavers from manufacturers like Tremron and Belgard are engineered specifically for our climate. They resist fading, cracking, and shifting when installed correctly.
The installation method matters more than the pavers themselves. Proper base preparation, drainage, and edge restraints prevent the settling and shifting that destroy cheaper installations within a few years. That’s why we follow manufacturer specifications exactly – your patio needs to handle decades of Florida weather.
Paver patios offer flexibility and repairability that concrete can’t match, especially important in Florida where ground movement is common. Concrete cracks – pavers adjust.
Concrete patios in Inverness typically crack within 5-10 years due to ground movement, tree roots, and thermal expansion. When concrete cracks, you’re looking at expensive repairs or complete replacement. Individual pavers can shift slightly without damage, and any damaged paver can be replaced without affecting the rest.
Pavers also offer design flexibility that concrete doesn’t. You can create patterns, mix colors, and add borders or accents. If you ever want to expand your patio or add features like fire pits, pavers make modifications much easier. The upfront cost difference pays for itself in longevity and flexibility.
Proper drainage is critical for any patio installation in Inverness, where we get 50+ inches of rain annually. We assess and address drainage during the design phase, not after problems appear.
Every patio installation includes a slight slope away from your home – typically 1/4 inch per foot. This ensures water flows away from your foundation and doesn’t pool on the surface. In areas with clay soil or poor natural drainage, we install French drains or other drainage solutions.
We also use permeable joint sand that allows water to filter through the patio surface rather than running off. This reduces erosion and helps prevent the washout problems that plague poorly installed patios. Proper drainage isn’t optional in Florida – it’s what separates patios that last decades from those that fail within years.
Yes, we regularly install patios around existing pools, trees, and landscaping features in Inverness. The key is careful planning and precise execution to protect what’s already there.
Pool deck installations require special attention to drainage and slip resistance. We use pavers with appropriate texture and ensure proper slopes so water doesn’t pool around the pool area. All installations maintain required setbacks from pool equipment and comply with local safety codes.
When working around mature trees, we adjust the patio design to preserve root systems while creating usable space. Sometimes this means curved edges or elevation changes, but the result is a patio that works with your existing landscape rather than fighting it. We’ve been doing this in Citrus County for nearly 30 years – we know how to work with what you have.
Paver patio maintenance in Inverness is minimal but important for long-term performance. Most homeowners spend 2-3 hours per year on basic maintenance tasks.
Annual maintenance includes pressure washing to remove algae and mildew that grow in our humid climate. This typically takes one afternoon and keeps your patio looking new. Every 2-3 years, you’ll want to refresh the joint sand and apply sealer if your pavers are the type that benefit from sealing.
Occasional weed control around edges and spot-cleaning any stains as they happen prevent bigger problems later. If individual pavers ever settle or shift, they can be lifted and releveled easily. The beauty of paver patios is that maintenance is straightforward and problems are fixable without major reconstruction.
Patio installation costs in Inverness typically range from $12-25 per square foot depending on materials, complexity, and site conditions. A standard 300 square foot patio runs $3,600-7,500 installed.
Several factors affect pricing: paver selection, site accessibility, drainage requirements, and design complexity. Basic concrete pavers cost less than premium natural stone, but both will last decades when properly installed. Complex patterns or multiple elevations require more labor and materials.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down materials, labor, and any additional work like drainage or site preparation. No hidden costs or surprises. Many Inverness homeowners find that investing in quality installation saves money long-term compared to cheaper options that need replacement or major repairs within a few years.
