Pavers

Pavers in Gifford, FL — Built for Everyday Florida Living and Outdoor Comfort

Located just north of Vero Beach, Gifford, FL is a close-knit community where outdoor living is part of daily life. From homes near 45th Street and U.S. 1 to neighborhoods close to Gifford Park, residents enjoy spending time outside with family, entertaining guests, and relaxing in their backyards. With Florida’s warm climate and frequent rain, many homeowners in Gifford choose to add screen enclosures to make their outdoor spaces more usable year-round. At Lafferty Aluminum & Screening, we specialize in paver foundations installed exclusively as part of our custom screen enclosure builds, providing Gifford homeowners with a strong, attractive foundation designed to perform well in local soil and weather conditions.

Unlike companies that offer pavers as a standalone service, we do not install pavers on their own. Our paver foundations are engineered specifically to support screen enclosures, ensuring proper grading, drainage, and long-term structural stability. This integrated approach results in a cleaner installation and a finished outdoor space that lasts.

Why Our Paver Installations Are Only for Screen Enclosures

Gifford’s soil conditions—often sandy with varying moisture levels—can cause traditional concrete slabs to crack or settle over time. Paver foundations offer a more flexible solution that adapts to minor soil movement while providing excellent drainage beneath the enclosure.

To learn more about the materials we use, visit our concrete pavers page, which highlights the durability and quality standards we follow for structural applications. If you’re curious how pavers perform under heavier loads and long-term use, our driveway pavers guide provides additional insight into the strength built into our foundations.

For homeowners exploring design ideas—such as colors, textures, or patterns—our patio pavers page offers inspiration that pairs well with screen enclosures.

Benefits of Paver Foundations for Gifford Homes

Choosing a paver foundation for your screen enclosure offers several advantages that make sense for homes in Gifford:

✔ Better Performance in Sandy Soil

Pavers can accommodate minor soil movement without cracking, making them ideal for Florida’s sandy conditions.

✔ Improved Drainage

With frequent rainstorms, proper drainage is essential. Paver joints allow water to drain naturally, reducing pooling beneath the enclosure.

✔ Long-Term Durability

Properly installed pavers maintain their integrity over time and resist many common foundation problems seen with concrete slabs.

✔ Easy Maintenance

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

✔ Enhanced Outdoor Appearance

Pavers create a clean, finished look that enhances patios, lanais, and screened-in outdoor spaces.

Our Paver Foundation Installation Process

We follow a detailed, proven process to ensure your enclosure foundation is built for long-term performance.

1. Property Evaluation

We assess soil composition, grading, drainage flow, and the enclosure footprint. Homes near 45th Street, U.S. 1, and nearby residential areas often require careful grading to manage water flow.

2. Site Preparation

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

3. Paver Installation

You choose your preferred paver style and pattern. We install the pavers precisely to ensure alignment with the enclosure layout.

4. Joint Sanding & Compaction

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

5. Screen Enclosure Construction

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

We handle all required permitting through Indian River County, making the process simple and stress-free for homeowners.
