At Lafferty Aluminum & Screening, we help Florida homeowners create outdoor spaces that are beautiful, durable, and made for year-round living. Serving Brevard and Indian River Counties, our team delivers expert craftsmanship on every project, from pool enclosures to hurricane protection.
Palm Shores, FL is a small, riverfront community known for its quiet streets, mature landscaping, and close proximity to the Indian River Lagoon. Nestled between Eau Gallie and Melbourne, homes in Palm Shores often feature patios and lanais designed to take advantage of breezes and water views while maintaining privacy. Because of the area’s moisture levels and coastal soil conditions, many homeowners choose 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 Palm Shores homeowners with strong, attractive foundations engineered for lagoon-adjacent conditions.
Unlike contractors that offer pavers as a standalone service, we do not install pavers on their own. Our paver foundations are specifically designed to support screen enclosures, ensuring correct elevation, proper drainage, and long-term structural stability. This integrated approach results in a cleaner installation and an outdoor space that performs reliably over time.
Palm Shores properties often experience sandy soil, organic ground cover, and higher moisture levels due to proximity to the lagoon and canal systems. Traditional concrete slabs in these environments can crack, settle unevenly, or retain moisture beneath an enclosure. Paver foundations offer a more adaptable solution that manages soil movement and drainage more effectively.
To learn more about the materials we use and the standards we follow, visit our concrete pavers page. If you’re interested in understanding how pavers perform under heavier loads and long-term use, our driveway pavers guide highlights the durability built into our foundation systems.
For homeowners exploring colors, textures, or layout styles that work well with patios and lanais, our patio pavers page offers inspiration that pairs seamlessly with screen enclosures.
Choosing a paver foundation for your screen enclosure offers several advantages well-suited to Palm Shores properties:
Pavers adapt to minor soil movement without cracking, making them a reliable choice for homes near the Indian River Lagoon.
With Florida’s frequent rain and nearby waterways, proper drainage is essential. Paver joints allow water to drain naturally, reducing pooling beneath the enclosure.
Properly installed pavers resist cracking and surface deterioration better than many concrete slab foundations.
If irrigation lines or underground utilities ever need access, individual pavers can be removed and reinstalled without disturbing the entire foundation.
Pavers provide a polished look that enhances patios and lanais while complementing Palm Shores’ quiet, residential character.

We follow a proven, step-by-step process to ensure your enclosure foundation is built for strength and longevity.
We assess soil conditions, elevation, drainage flow, and the enclosure footprint. Homes near the lagoon, canal systems, and interior residential streets often require customized grading strategies.
Our team excavates the installation area, installs high-quality base materials, and compacts everything thoroughly to prevent settling or shifting.
You select your preferred paver style, color, and pattern. We install the pavers with precision to ensure perfect alignment with the enclosure layout.
Polymeric sand is applied and compacted to lock the pavers into place and enhance overall stability.
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 Brevard County, ensuring compliance with local building requirements.
