Pavers in Fellsmere, FL — Designed for Strong, Long-Lasting Outdoor Foundations

Homeowners in Fellsmere, FL appreciate outdoor living—whether you're spending time at the historic Fellsmere Frog Leg Festival, fishing around Blue Cypress Lake, exploring the St. Sebastian River Preserve, or enjoying the open land and acreage-style homes the area is known for. With many properties featuring large yards, patios, and outdoor gathering spaces, residents often upgrade their backyards with screen enclosures to enjoy Florida’s climate without pests or harsh sun. At Lafferty Aluminum & Screening, we specialize in creating paver foundations exclusively for our screen enclosure builds, ensuring Fellsmere homeowners receive a durable, attractive, and properly engineered foundation that performs exceptionally well in rural Florida environments.

Unlike companies that install pavers by themselves, we do not offer standalone paver services. Our paver systems are installed only when they will support one of our enclosures. This allows us to engineer the foundation precisely to the enclosure footprint, ensuring correct drainage, stability, and long-term structural integrity.

Why Our Paver Installations Are Only Part of Screen Enclosure Projects

Fellsmere sits on land known for its rich agricultural soil, natural marshlands, and high moisture levels. These conditions can lead concrete slabs to crack or shift over time. A paver foundation, however, adapts extremely well to Florida’s natural settling patterns.

If you’d like to understand the types of materials we use, visit our concrete pavers page, which shows the quality standards we maintain for structural installations. For information about strong, load-resistant materials that perform well under enclosures, see our driveway pavers guide.

Benefits of a Paver Foundation for Fellsmere Homeowners

Fellsmere’s natural terrain makes paver foundations the ideal choice for screen enclosures:

✔ Handles Soil Movement Better Than Concrete

With many Fellsmere properties located near wetlands or lowlands, soil naturally expands and shifts. Pavers flex with movement instead of cracking or sinking.

✔ Excellent Drainage for Rainy Seasons

Frequent rainfall and seasonal flooding make drainage essential. Pavers allow water to pass through the joints, reducing pooling around the enclosure.

✔ Ideal for Larger Rural Properties

Many Fellsmere homes include oversized patios, pole barns, and spacious lanais. Pavers scale beautifully for larger spaces and create a cohesive, natural aesthetic.

✔ Easy to Repair or Adjust

If underground utilities or irrigation systems require access, individual pavers can be removed and replaced easily—unlike concrete slabs.

✔ Structural Stability for Custom Enclosures

Because we design the enclosure and its paver foundation together, homeowners receive a stronger, more reliable installation.

Our Engineered Paver Installation Process in Fellsmere

We follow a detailed installation process to ensure your screen enclosure sits on a solid, long-lasting paver base.

1. Site Evaluation

We begin by evaluating soil moisture, grade levels, drainage flow, and the intended enclosure footprint. Properties near South Carolina Avenue, Willis Street, or rural areas east of 95th Street often require specific grading strategies to manage water movement.

2. Excavation & Base Preparation

We excavate the installation area, place high-quality base materials, and compact the surface to ensure stability and prevent sinking.

3. Paver Layout & Installation

You select the paver style, color, and pattern. Our team installs them with precision, ensuring the base aligns perfectly with the size and shape of the enclosure.

4. Joint Sanding & Compaction

Polymeric sand is used to lock pavers firmly in place while helping prevent weed growth and enhancing drainage.

5. Enclosure Construction

Once the foundation is ready, we build your screen enclosure directly on top, which ensures seamless alignment and long-lasting performance.

We also handle all necessary permitting through Indian River County, ensuring the project complies with local codes.
