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.

If you call Port St. Lucie, FL home, you already know how much outdoor living defines the lifestyle here—whether you're spending weekends at Tradition Square, enjoying the nature trails around Savannas Preserve State Park, or relaxing in communities like St. Lucie West or Torino. With warm weather year-round and a strong emphasis on backyard enjoyment, homeowners want outdoor spaces that look great and perform well in the Florida climate. At Lafferty Aluminum & Screening, we specialize in paver foundations designed exclusively for our screen enclosure builds, providing homeowners in Port St. Lucie with durable, beautiful, and long-lasting surfaces built for our subtropical environment.
Unlike many companies that install pavers as a standalone service, we do not. Our team focuses solely on paver systems that act as the structural base for screen enclosures, ensuring proper drainage, elevation, stability, and load distribution. When pavers are engineered to support the enclosure from the start, the result is a smoother installation process, a longer-lasting structure, and a cleaner aesthetic for your backyard.
Port St. Lucie’s soil composition, rainy season, and high groundwater levels create challenges for traditional concrete slabs. A well-engineered paver foundation offers homeowners flexibility and durability that adapt better to Florida’s natural elements. Instead of cracking or holding water, pavers allow movement, promote drainage, and maintain a more stable and level base under the enclosure.
If you're interested in learning about the types of materials we use, you can explore our selection of durable options on our concrete pavers page. Homeowners who want to understand how heavier-duty materials behave under long-term wear can also review our driveway pavers guide, which showcases the same strength and resilience we aim for in foundation installations.
Homeowners looking for color palettes, styles, or layout ideas can browse our patio pavers inspiration page to get a better feel for what complements their backyard.
A high-quality paver foundation provides several advantages that make it a smart choice for homes in Port St. Lucie:
Pavers naturally allow water to flow and drain through the joints, reducing the chance of pooling or erosion beneath your enclosure.
Pavers flex with seasonal soil movement and resist cracking, which is particularly important in areas with shifting sand and frequent rainfall.
If utilities or underground lines require service, pavers can be lifted and reinstalled without disturbing the entire foundation.
Many Port St. Lucie homeowners choose pavers to create a more polished, upscale look beneath their screen enclosure or lanai.
By designing the paver foundation to match the enclosure footprint, we ensure perfect alignment and long-term durability.

We handle the complete paver foundation installation to ensure the enclosure sits on a strong, level, and long-lasting base. Here’s the process our Port St. Lucie homeowners can expect:
We analyze grade levels, soil conditions, and drainage patterns. Homes in areas like Tradition, Newport Isles, and SLW often require customized drainage solutions due to varying elevations.
We prepare the ground, add base materials, and compact everything thoroughly to ensure long-term stability.
Our team installs the pavers in your selected pattern and ensures everything aligns with the enclosure’s footprint.
This step locks the pavers into place and prepares them to support the upcoming screen enclosure.
Once the foundation is fully prepared, we construct your custom enclosure directly on top.
We also handle all necessary permits through the City of Port St. Lucie, making the entire process seamless for homeowners.
