You want an outdoor space that works year-round in Florida’s unpredictable weather. Not a patio that cracks after the first summer or turns into a swamp after every afternoon storm.
Our patio installations handle what Florida throws at them. Proper drainage keeps water flowing away from your home instead of pooling on your patio. Heat-resistant materials stay comfortable underfoot even during July afternoons. And when that next tropical storm rolls through, your patio stays intact while others are calling for repairs.
You get an outdoor space that extends your living area, increases your home’s value, and gives you a place to actually enjoy Florida’s beautiful weather—without the headaches that come with poor installation.
Since 1995, we’ve been the family-owned landscaping company that Citrus County residents call when they want the job done right the first time. We’re not just patio contractors—we’re your neighbors who understand what it takes to build outdoor spaces that survive and thrive in Florida’s climate.
As authorized contractors for Tremron, Flagstone, and Belgard, we work with materials designed specifically for Florida conditions. We’re also the exclusive Seal ‘n Lock distributor in our county, which means you get access to the best sealing products to protect your investment.
Living in Weeki Wachee Gardens means dealing with everything from afternoon thunderstorms to hurricane season. We’ve helped hundreds of local homeowners create outdoor spaces that handle it all while looking great year after year.
First, we assess your space and discuss what you want from your patio. We’ll talk about drainage, sun exposure, and how you plan to use the space. No cookie-cutter solutions—every Weeki Wachee Gardens property has its own challenges and opportunities.
Next comes proper excavation and base preparation. This is where most contractors cut corners, but it’s the foundation of everything. We excavate to the right depth, install proper drainage, and compact the base until it’s rock-solid. In Florida’s sandy soil and with our heavy rains, this step determines whether your patio lasts 5 years or 25.
Then we install your chosen pavers with precise spacing for drainage and expansion. We use professional-grade edge restraints and polymeric sand that won’t wash away in the first storm. Finally, we clean everything and apply appropriate sealers to protect against Florida’s sun and rain.

Your patio material choice determines how well it performs in Weeki Wachee Gardens’ climate. Travertine pavers stay cool underfoot and provide natural slip resistance—perfect for pool areas and high-traffic zones. Concrete pavers offer versatility in colors and patterns while handling thermal expansion without cracking.
Natural stone options like flagstone bring timeless appeal but require proper sealing in our humid environment. For budget-conscious projects, quality concrete pavers can mimic natural stone while offering superior durability and easier maintenance.
Every material we install comes with proper drainage design. In an area where afternoon storms can dump inches of rain in minutes, water management isn’t optional. We slope patios away from your home, install French drains when needed, and ensure joints between pavers allow water to flow through rather than pool on top. This attention to Florida-specific challenges is what separates professional installation from weekend DIY disasters.
Patio installation typically runs $8-25 per square foot in our area, depending on materials and site conditions. A basic 12×12 concrete paver patio starts around $1,200, while premium natural stone installations can reach $3,600 for the same size.
Several factors affect your final cost. Sandy soil common in Weeki Wachee Gardens sometimes requires additional base preparation. Drainage solutions add $500-1,500 depending on your yard’s slope and proximity to your home’s foundation. Complex patterns or premium materials like travertine increase both material and labor costs.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down every cost so you know exactly what you’re paying for. No surprises, no hidden fees—just honest pricing for quality work that lasts.
Travertine and quality concrete pavers perform best in our climate. Travertine naturally stays cooler than other materials and provides excellent slip resistance when wet. It’s porous enough to handle thermal expansion but dense enough to resist cracking from temperature swings.
Concrete pavers offer the best value for most homeowners. Modern manufacturing creates pavers that look like natural stone but with superior durability and consistent dimensions. They handle Florida’s heat cycles better than poured concrete and won’t develop the surface cracks that plague solid concrete slabs.
Avoid cheap pavers that absorb water easily—they’ll crack during our few cold snaps when that absorbed water expands. We only install pavers rated for Florida’s climate extremes and back our material choices with manufacturer warranties.
Proper drainage starts with understanding Weeki Wachee Gardens’ soil and typical rainfall patterns. We slope all patios at least 1/4 inch per foot away from your home. For areas with poor natural drainage, we install French drains or channel drains to redirect water flow.
The spaces between pavers act as thousands of tiny drains, allowing water to infiltrate rather than run off. We use polymeric sand in joints that stays in place during heavy rains but still allows water movement. For problem areas, we sometimes install permeable pavers that allow even more water infiltration.
During site evaluation, we identify potential trouble spots like low areas where water naturally collects. These get addressed during excavation with proper grading and, if needed, underground drainage systems. Good drainage isn’t an add-on service—it’s fundamental to every patio we build.
Most residential patios take 2-4 days to complete, weather permitting. Simple rectangular designs with straightforward access can sometimes be finished in two days. Complex patterns, multiple elevation changes, or extensive drainage work extend the timeline to a week or more.
Florida weather affects scheduling more than in other climates. We can’t pour concrete or compact base materials during heavy rain. Summer afternoon storms are predictable, so we plan around them. Hurricane season sometimes delays projects, but we’d rather reschedule than compromise quality.
We provide realistic timelines during your estimate and keep you updated if weather or unforeseen site conditions affect the schedule. Most delays are weather-related and temporary. The extra time spent doing things right means your patio will look great and function properly for decades.
Yes, we warranty our installation workmanship for two years from completion. This covers settling, shifting, or drainage issues that result from installation problems. Manufacturer warranties on pavers themselves typically run 25-50 years depending on the specific product.
Our warranty doesn’t cover damage from settling that occurs due to plumbing leaks, major ground disturbance, or acts of nature like hurricanes. It does cover any installation-related problems that develop under normal use and weather conditions.
We’ve been in business since 1995 and plan to be here for decades more. When you call with a warranty issue, you’re talking to the same company that did your original work. We stand behind our installations because our reputation in Citrus County depends on customers who are happy years after we finish their projects.
We install patios year-round but work around weather conditions for best results. Summer’s daily afternoon storms require flexible scheduling—we often start early and work around predicted rain times. Extended rainy periods sometimes delay projects by a few days.
Certain installation steps can’t be rushed or done in wet conditions. Base compaction requires dry materials for proper density. Paver installation proceeds normally in light rain, but we avoid setting pavers during downpours that could wash away bedding sand.
Fall through spring offers the most predictable working conditions, but we don’t shut down during summer. We just build weather delays into project timelines and communicate schedule adjustments as needed. The key is patience—rushing installation during poor weather conditions compromises quality and long-term performance.
