174th Street North St. Pete Aprons

174th Street North in north St. Petersburg is a residential block where the apron is often the first thing that fails. The throat is short, the shoulder is sand, and afternoon rain sits at the gutter if the field was set flat.

What the apron has to do

We measure the garage lip, the sidewalk, and the existing curb cut before we talk about paver color. The finished surface has to let a car leave without scraping and still sheet water to the street.

  • Compacted aggregate base under the vehicle field, not a sand-only bed

  • Pitch to the gutter, not back toward the garage slab

  • Edge restraint that stays put when the shoulder is soft

  • A flare that stays on the property and matches the city approach

When a re-level is enough

If the stones are sound and only the apron has dropped, we lift and reset that section instead of tearing out a field that still locks. If the base was never built, color will not save it. Call PaverForge Hardscapes at 727-490-9798 or book at https://www.paverforge.com/book-online.
