Pavers Done Right Last 30 Years. Done Wrong, They Sink in Three.
Most failed paver jobs in South Florida aren't a paver problem — they're a base problem. Skip the limerock compaction, skip the edge restraints, skip the polymeric sand, and the project starts shifting the first heavy rain. We don't skip steps.
Concrete Designs LLC has poured driveways, patios, and pool decks across Miami-Dade and Broward for 20+ years. We added paver installation to our line because more clients are asking for the look of stone, brick, or travertine without giving up the durability of a properly engineered base.
We install every type of residential paver — from cost-friendly concrete pavers to high-end travertine and porcelain — using the same disciplined process we use on poured concrete: proper sub-base prep, compacted limerock to grade, polymeric sand joints, and edge restraints on every project. That's why our work holds up under Florida heat, hurricane rain, and decades of daily use.
We're a father-and-son family-owned business. The owner — Manny Mollinedo — runs every estimate and check-in personally. You're not getting a salesman who hands the project off to a sub. You're getting our family's name on your paver project.
The Right Paver for Your Project, Budget, and Look
Every paver type has a use case where it shines and a use case where it's the wrong call. Here's a quick overview — we'll walk through which one fits your project at your free on-site consultation.
1. Concrete Pavers
The most versatile and cost-friendly paver. Manufactured concrete blocks in dozens of colors and shapes (rectangular, interlocking, cobblestone-style). Strong, easy to repair section-by-section, and the right call for most residential driveways, patios, and walkways.
2. Brick Pavers
Classic clay brick with the warm red-orange tone you can't fake. Excellent slip resistance, ages beautifully, and pairs perfectly with Mediterranean and historic-style homes. Common in Coral Gables, Coconut Grove, and older neighborhoods.
3. Travertine Pavers
Natural stone with a soft cream, beige, or walnut color. Stays cool underfoot — the top choice for pool decks and patios. Honed or tumbled finishes available. A premium look without the maintenance demands of marble.
4. Porcelain Pavers
Modern, ultra-low-maintenance, and slip-resistant. Porcelain pavers can mimic wood, stone, or concrete with photorealistic finishes. Doesn't stain, doesn't fade, and resists Florida algae growth. A favorite for contemporary builds and pool decks.
5. Permeable Pavers
Engineered to let water drain through the joints into the base layer below — reduces runoff, helps with drainage issues, and qualifies for some HOA and city stormwater requirements. Great for properties with flat lots or low drainage spots.
6. Cobblestone & Custom Designs
European cobblestone, herringbone patterns, color borders, contrasting bands, circular drive layouts — we design and install custom paver layouts to match the architectural style of your home. Common in luxury Pinecrest, Aventura, and Weston projects.
Driveways, Patios, Walkways & Pool Decks
Same family of materials, four different installations. Pricing depends on square footage, paver type, and base prep complexity — every project is quote-based.
The 10-Step Paver Process That Doesn't Skip the Base
Most paver failures in Florida are base-prep failures. Here's how we do it.
Free Quote
On-site measure, real fixed-price written number.
Permits
We pull every city permit and handle HOA submittals.
Excavation
Remove existing surface, dig to proper depth for base.
Sub-Base
4–6 inches of compacted limerock or gravel.
Leveling Sand
1-inch screeded bedding layer for the pavers to set into.
Pavers Laid
Pattern set, cut precisely at edges and curves.
Edge Restraints
Locks the perimeter so pavers can't migrate.
Polymeric Sand
Joints filled and activated. Stops weeds and washout.
Inspection
City inspection passed. Walkthrough with you.
Walk & Drive
Site cleaned. Patios usable immediately, drives at 24 hours.
Built for Florida. Backed by 20+ Years.
The difference between a paver project that lasts 30 years and one that fails in three is invisible — it's under the pavers. Here's where we don't cut corners.
Proper Base Prep
Compacted limerock or crushed concrete sub-base, brought to grade and tested. We use a plate compactor in lifts, not a quick once-over. Skipping this is the #1 reason pavers shift in 3 years.
Edge Restraints on Every Project
Without proper edge restraints, the perimeter pavers walk outward and the whole field destabilizes. We install rigid edge restraints on every driveway, patio, and walkway. Not optional.
Polymeric Sand — Always
Regular sand washes out in the first heavy rain. Polymeric sand hardens into a flexible joint that resists weeds, ants, and washout. Costs more, lasts longer. We use it on every install.
Permits & HOA Handled
Every Miami-Dade and Broward city we work in. Aventura, Pinecrest, Coral Gables, Weston, Parkland, gated communities — we know the rules and pull the paperwork. You don't deal with the city.
Fixed-Price Quote
