Pavers in Cape Canaveral, FL — Built for Coastal Conditions and Space Coast Living

Living in Cape Canaveral, FL means embracing coastal living at its finest—whether you’re enjoying ocean breezes near Cherie Down Park, watching rocket launches from your backyard, or relaxing in neighborhoods close to Port Canaveral and A1A. With salt air, sandy soil, and frequent coastal weather patterns, outdoor spaces here need to be built with durability in mind. Screen enclosures are a popular upgrade for Cape Canaveral homeowners who want to enjoy the outdoors while staying protected from insects and harsh sun. At Lafferty Aluminum & Screening, we specialize in paver foundations installed exclusively as part of our custom screen enclosure builds, providing Cape Canaveral homeowners with strong, attractive foundations engineered specifically for coastal Florida environments.

Unlike general hardscape contractors, we do not install pavers as a standalone service. Our paver installations are designed solely to serve as the foundation for screen enclosures. This approach ensures correct grading, proper drainage, and long-term structural stability—especially important in a coastal city like Cape Canaveral.

Why Our Paver Installations Are Only for Screen Enclosures

Cape Canaveral’s proximity to the ocean brings unique challenges, including sandy soil, salt exposure, and higher moisture levels. Traditional concrete slabs in these conditions can crack, shift, or deteriorate over time. Paver foundations offer a more adaptable and resilient solution that performs better in coastal environments.

To learn more about the materials we use, visit our concrete pavers page, which explains the durability and quality standards we follow for structural applications. If you’d like insight into how pavers handle heavier loads and long-term wear, our driveway pavers guide highlights the strength built into our foundation systems.

For homeowners exploring colors, textures, or layout ideas that complement coastal architecture, our patio pavers page offers inspiration that works beautifully beneath screen enclosures.

Benefits of Paver Foundations for Cape Canaveral Homes

Choosing a paver foundation for your screen enclosure provides several advantages well-suited to Cape Canaveral properties:

✔ Ideal for Coastal Soil and Salt Air

Pavers tolerate minor soil movement and environmental stress better than concrete, making them ideal for ocean-adjacent homes.

✔ Superior Drainage

Florida’s coastal storms and heavy rains require effective water management. Paver joints allow water to drain naturally, reducing pooling beneath the enclosure.

✔ Long-Term Durability

Properly installed pavers resist cracking and surface damage, helping maintain the foundation’s appearance and performance over time.

✔ Easy Maintenance and Repairs

If irrigation or underground utilities ever require access, individual pavers can be removed and replaced without damaging the entire foundation.

✔ Clean, Finished Appearance

Pavers create a polished look that enhances patios, lanais, and screened outdoor spaces while complementing Cape Canaveral’s coastal style.

Our Paver Foundation Installation Process

We follow a proven, step-by-step process to ensure your enclosure foundation is built for strength, stability, and longevity.

1. Property Evaluation

We assess soil conditions, elevation, drainage patterns, and the enclosure footprint. Homes near A1A, Port Canaveral, and ocean-adjacent neighborhoods often require specific grading considerations due to wind and moisture exposure.

2. Site Preparation

Our team excavates the installation area, installs high-quality base materials, and compacts everything thoroughly to prevent settling or shifting.

3. Paver Installation

You select your preferred paver style, color, and pattern. We install the pavers with precision to ensure perfect alignment with the enclosure layout.

4. Joint Sanding & Compaction

Polymeric sand is applied and compacted to lock the pavers into place and increase overall stability.

5. Screen Enclosure Construction

Once the foundation is complete, we build your custom screen enclosure directly on top, creating a seamless finished outdoor space.

We handle all required permitting through the City of Cape Canaveral and Brevard County, ensuring compliance with local building requirements.
