Picture stepping out your back door onto a stunning paver patio that actually works for how you live. No more looking at that unused patch of grass, wondering what could be.
Your new patio becomes the place where Saturday morning coffee tastes better, where friends naturally gather, and where your property value quietly climbs. The difference between a basic concrete slab and a professionally installed paver patio isn’t just aesthetic—it’s functional.
Florida’s weather demands materials that won’t crack, shift, or fade after a few seasons. That’s exactly what you get with proper paver installation: a surface that handles everything from afternoon thunderstorms to years of family gatherings without showing wear.
Since 1995, we’ve been the family business Citrus County homeowners trust for outdoor transformations that last. We’ve seen every type of Florida soil condition, every drainage challenge, and every design preference you can imagine.
What sets us apart isn’t just our experience—it’s our approach. We’re Authorized Contractors for Tremron, Flagstone, and Belgard, which means we install to manufacturer specifications using the best materials available. As the exclusive Seal ‘n Lock distributor in our county, we have access to premium products that many contractors simply can’t offer.
You’re not just getting a patio installation. You’re getting nearly 30 years of problem-solving experience, community investment, and the kind of attention to detail that comes from knowing we’ll see you at the grocery store next week.
Every successful patio starts with understanding your property’s unique conditions. We begin by assessing your soil, drainage patterns, and existing landscape to determine the proper foundation depth and materials needed for your specific location.
Next comes excavation and base preparation—the invisible work that determines whether your patio will look great for five years or fifty. We install the proper crushed stone base, compact it with professional equipment, and create the precise grading needed for Florida’s heavy rains.
Paver installation follows manufacturer specifications exactly. Each stone is leveled, aligned, and secured using proven techniques that prevent shifting and settling. We complete the process with edge restraints, joint sand, and sealing when appropriate, ensuring your investment performs exactly as intended from day one.

Your patio installation includes everything needed for long-term performance in Central Florida’s unique environment. We handle site preparation, proper drainage integration, and professional-grade base installation that prevents the settling issues common with DIY projects.
Material selection matters more in Florida than most places. High humidity, intense sun, and seasonal storms demand pavers that won’t fade, crack, or develop mold issues over time. We work exclusively with proven manufacturers whose products are engineered for our climate.
Inverness Highlands North’s sandy soil and occasional heavy rains require specific installation techniques that many contractors overlook. Our local experience means we know exactly how deep to excavate, which base materials perform best, and how to integrate your new patio with existing drainage patterns. The result is a surface that looks better and lasts longer than standard installations.
Most residential patio installations in Inverness Highlands North take 2-4 days from start to finish, depending on size and complexity. Weather can affect timing, but we schedule projects to minimize delays during Florida’s rainy season.
The first day typically involves excavation and base preparation. Day two focuses on paver installation and initial compaction. Final details like edge restraints, joint sand, and cleanup happen on the final day. We’ll give you a specific timeline during your consultation based on your project’s unique requirements.
Larger or more complex designs with multiple elevations, curves, or integrated features like fire pits may require additional time. We always provide realistic timelines upfront and keep you informed of progress throughout the installation process.
Concrete pavers offer the best combination of durability, cost-effectiveness, and performance in Florida’s climate. They resist fading from UV exposure, handle thermal expansion and contraction, and maintain their structural integrity through wet and dry cycles.
Natural stone pavers like travertine perform well but require more maintenance in our humid environment. Brick pavers are durable but can develop efflorescence (white chalky deposits) over time. We typically recommend high-quality concrete pavers from manufacturers like Belgard or Tremron for most Central Florida applications.
The key isn’t just the paver material—it’s the installation method. Proper base preparation, drainage integration, and joint stabilization matter more than the specific paver type. We’ll recommend the best option based on your budget, aesthetic preferences, and intended use patterns.
Paver patio costs in Inverness Highlands North typically range from $12-25 per square foot installed, depending on material choice, site conditions, and design complexity. A standard 12×16 patio usually falls between $2,500-4,800 including all materials and professional installation.
Several factors affect pricing: excavation requirements for your specific soil conditions, drainage integration needs, paver style and manufacturer, and any custom features like borders or patterns. Properties requiring significant grading or drainage work will be toward the higher end of the range.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs clearly. No surprises, no hidden fees, and no pressure tactics. You’ll know exactly what you’re investing in and why each component is necessary for long-term performance in Florida’s environment.
Yes, we handle all necessary permits and ensure your patio installation meets local building codes and drainage requirements. Citrus County has specific regulations for hardscape installations, and we’re familiar with the entire permitting process.
Drainage integration is critical in Central Florida, and we design every patio to work with your property’s existing water management systems. This includes proper grading, connection to existing drainage, and ensuring water flows away from your home’s foundation.
Our experience with local regulations means faster permit approval and installations that pass inspection the first time. We coordinate all inspections and handle any questions that arise during the approval process, so you don’t have to navigate county requirements on your own.
Properly installed paver patios require minimal maintenance in Florida’s climate. Regular sweeping and occasional pressure washing keep them looking their best. Joint sand may need refreshing every 2-3 years, depending on weather exposure and usage patterns.
Sealing isn’t always necessary but can help prevent staining and make cleaning easier. We recommend sealing every 3-5 years for patios with heavy use or exposure to organic matter like falling leaves. The investment in quality installation upfront significantly reduces long-term maintenance requirements.
Annual inspection for any settling or shifting helps catch minor issues before they become major problems. With proper installation and basic care, your paver patio should perform beautifully for decades without significant maintenance expenses or repairs.
Pavers outperform concrete in Florida’s challenging climate conditions. While concrete often cracks from thermal expansion and ground movement, individual pavers can flex and adjust without creating unsightly damage. If a single paver does get damaged, it’s easily replaceable without affecting the entire surface.
Florida’s sandy soil and seasonal weather changes cause concrete slabs to develop cracks and uneven surfaces over time. Pavers distribute weight more effectively and allow for natural ground movement without structural damage. The result is a patio that looks better longer with fewer repair needs.
Design flexibility is another major advantage. Pavers offer unlimited pattern, color, and texture combinations that simply aren’t possible with poured concrete. You can create borders, incorporate different materials, or add features like fire pits more easily with a paver installation than with a concrete slab.
