Picture stepping out your back door onto a beautifully crafted patio that’s ready for everything from morning coffee to evening barbecues. No more dealing with cracked concrete or uneven surfaces that collect water and create headaches.
Your new patio becomes the natural extension of your home where family actually wants to spend time. Whether you’re hosting neighbors or just enjoying Florida’s perfect weather, you’ll have a space that works as hard as you do.
The right patio installation means no more worrying about shifting pavers or drainage problems during Florida’s heavy rains. Just a solid, attractive surface that enhances your property value and gives you years of trouble-free enjoyment.
Since 1995, we’ve been the family-owned patio contractor that Sugarmill Woods homeowners trust for quality work. We understand the unique challenges of building in Citrus County’s sandy soil and humid climate.
As authorized contractors for Tremron, Flagstone, and Belgard pavers, we bring manufacturer-level expertise to every project. Our team knows which materials work best in Florida’s conditions and how to install them properly the first time.
Being the exclusive Seal ‘n Lock distributor in Citrus County means your patio gets the best protection available. We’re not just contractors passing through—we’re neighbors who’ve built our reputation one satisfied customer at a time in this community.
The process starts with understanding exactly how you want to use your outdoor space. We’ll visit your property to assess drainage, soil conditions, and how the patio will connect to your home’s existing layout.
Next comes the proper foundation work that separates professional installation from amateur attempts. This means excavating to the right depth, installing proper base materials, and ensuring drainage that handles Florida’s intense rainfall without creating problems.
Installation follows manufacturer specifications exactly, with attention to details like proper spacing, edge restraints, and joint sand application. The final step includes sealing and cleanup, leaving you with a patio that’s ready to use and built to last decades in Florida’s challenging climate.

Every patio installation includes proper site preparation, premium paver materials from authorized manufacturers, and professional-grade base work designed for Florida conditions. You get the peace of mind that comes with state-licensed contractors who know local building requirements.
In Sugarmill Woods’ unique environment, proper drainage is critical. The installation includes grading and drainage solutions that prevent water pooling and protect your investment during Florida’s heavy rain seasons.
Your project also includes manufacturer warranties on materials plus our commitment to quality workmanship. As Citrus County residents ourselves, we stand behind every installation because our reputation depends on your satisfaction and the long-term performance of your patio.
Most patio installations in Sugarmill Woods take 3-5 days depending on size and complexity. This includes proper excavation, base preparation, paver installation, and finishing work.
The timeline can vary based on weather conditions, which is why we build buffer time into every project schedule. Florida’s afternoon thunderstorms sometimes require adjusting work schedules, but we’ll keep you informed every step of the way.
We don’t rush the critical foundation work that determines how well your patio performs over time. Taking the time to do proper base preparation and drainage work upfront prevents expensive problems later and ensures your patio lasts for decades.
Concrete pavers from manufacturers like Tremron, Belgard, and Flagstone perform exceptionally well in Florida’s climate. These pavers are specifically engineered to handle heat, humidity, and thermal expansion without cracking or fading.
Natural stone can also work well, but concrete pavers offer more consistent quality and better warranties. They’re designed with Florida’s UV exposure in mind and maintain their color and structural integrity through years of intense sun and weather.
The key is proper installation with the right base materials and joint sand. Even the best pavers will fail if not installed correctly, which is why working with authorized contractors makes such a difference in long-term performance.
Drainage is critical in Sugarmill Woods due to the area’s sandy soil and Florida’s intense rainfall patterns. Every patio installation includes proper grading to direct water away from your home’s foundation.
We install appropriate base materials that allow water infiltration while maintaining structural stability. This prevents the water pooling that can cause pavers to shift or become unstable over time.
For areas with specific drainage challenges, we can incorporate French drains, channel drains, or other drainage solutions into the patio design. The goal is ensuring your patio remains stable and functional even during Florida’s heaviest rain events.
Most patio installations in Citrus County don’t require permits if they’re at ground level and don’t involve electrical or plumbing work. However, larger patios or those with retaining walls may need permits.
We handle permit research and applications when needed, taking that burden off your shoulders. Our experience with local building departments means we know exactly what’s required and how to get approvals efficiently.
It’s always better to check permit requirements upfront rather than deal with compliance issues later. We’ll review your specific project and advise you on any permit needs during the initial consultation.
The difference starts with being authorized contractors for major paver manufacturers, which means we’re trained on proper installation techniques and can offer full manufacturer warranties on materials.
Our 30+ years of experience in Citrus County means we understand local soil conditions, drainage challenges, and climate factors that affect patio performance. We’re not learning on your project—we’re applying decades of local expertise.
As a family-owned business, we’re invested in our reputation in this community. Every installation reflects on our family name, which means we take the time to do things right rather than rushing to the next job.
Proper maintenance in Florida involves regular cleaning to prevent mold and mildew growth in the humid climate. Pressure washing once or twice a year removes buildup and keeps pavers looking fresh.
Joint sand may need periodic replenishment, especially after heavy rains. We use quality joint sand products and can provide maintenance services to keep your patio performing optimally.
Sealing every 2-3 years helps protect against staining and makes cleaning easier. As the exclusive Seal ‘n Lock distributor in Citrus County, we offer the best sealing products available and can handle this maintenance for you.
