Serving Hollywood, FL and surrounding areas. (754) 294-8074
Cracked, uneven, or poorly draining driveway? We install paver driveways designed for South Florida's rain, sandy soil, and HOA requirements - with drainage planned before a single paver goes down.
Driveway pavers in Hollywood, FL are individual concrete, brick, or stone units set over a compacted gravel base - most residential projects take two to five days from start to finish, depending on driveway size and how much ground prep is needed. Unlike a poured slab, individual pieces can be replaced if something shifts, which makes pavers a smarter long-term choice for South Florida's sandy soil.
Many homeowners in Hollywood are replacing old concrete that has cracked, sunk, or started pooling water near the garage. The sandy, low-lying soil here does not hold compaction the way clay soils do up north, which means the base layer under your pavers needs extra care. A driveway that was not built with South Florida conditions in mind tends to show problems within the first rainy season.
If your yard also has grading issues, a retaining wall alongside your new driveway can keep soil from washing onto the surface during heavy summer storms.
If your car rocks as you pull in or you can see dips and low spots, the base beneath your current surface has shifted or eroded. In Hollywood's sandy soil, this kind of settling is common in driveways more than 10 to 15 years old. An uneven surface can also direct water toward your home's foundation.
Hollywood gets intense summer storms, and if water collects at the base of your garage door after heavy rain, your driveway is not draining correctly. Over time this leads to moisture problems in your garage and near your foundation. A properly installed paver surface with the right slope redirects that water away from the house.
Hairline cracks in concrete are normal, but cracks wide enough to catch a finger - or edges breaking off in chunks - mean the surface has reached the end of its life. Patching these areas is usually a short-term fix. At that point, replacing with pavers is more cost-effective than repeated repairs.
South Florida's heat and humidity create ideal conditions for mold and algae on outdoor surfaces. If your driveway has dark staining that keeps coming back after pressure washing, the surface material is too porous to stay clean in this climate. Sealed pavers resist this kind of growth far better.
We install new paver driveways from the ground up, starting with proper excavation and a compacted gravel base suited to South Florida's sandy soil. Material options include concrete pavers, brick, and natural stone, each with different price points, textures, and HOA-friendly color ranges. We also handle full driveway removals, including hauling away the old surface before the new base goes down. For homeowners who want to extend their outdoor space, we can tie a new driveway into a walkway or patio for a unified look.
Drainage is built into every project. We slope each driveway surface and design joint spacing so water moves toward the street or a designated drain area rather than pooling near the garage. This is especially important during hurricane season when Hollywood can receive several inches of rain in a single afternoon. We also assist with HOA documentation and handle Broward County permit applications so nothing holds up your project after you are ready to start.
Best for homeowners replacing an old concrete or asphalt surface from scratch.
Suits homeowners adding width or a parking pad to an existing paver surface.
For driveways that drain toward the house rather than away from it.
Hollywood receives about 60 inches of rain per year, most of it falling in intense bursts between June and October. A driveway that was not designed with that rainfall in mind will show problems fast - water pooling at the garage, joints washing out, or sections sinking after the first big storm. The sandy, low-lying soil that underlies most of Hollywood's older neighborhoods makes the base preparation phase more demanding than it would be in parts of the country with denser soils.
We serve homeowners across South Broward County, including Pompano Beach and Miramar. Whether your home is in a neighborhood with HOA approval requirements or an older part of the city near the coast, we know the local conditions and build accordingly. Pavers installed without understanding South Florida's soil and drainage challenges tend to fail early - we do not cut those corners.

(754) 294-8074We hold a current Florida masonry contractor license and carry full liability insurance on every job. That means your property and your investment are protected from the first day of excavation through final inspection.
We plan the slope and joint spacing of every driveway to handle Hollywood's heavy summer storms. Water has a clear path to the street - not toward your garage or foundation - from the day your driveway is finished.
Most Hollywood driveway replacements require a City of Hollywood permit. We pull it, coordinate the inspection, and can help you prepare HOA approval documentation - so your project never stalls over paperwork.
Hollywood's sandy, low-lying soil needs a deeper and more carefully compacted gravel base than contractors use in other parts of the country. We take the time this step requires, because a driveway that sinks within a few years means the base was wrong - not the pavers.
Every driveway project we take on is designed for the specific soil, rainfall, and HOA conditions at that address. We do not use the same base formula across every job - Hollywood requires a South Florida approach, and that is what we deliver. The Interlocking Concrete Pavement Institute publishes the installation standards we follow on every project.
