189th Street North St. Pete Courtyards

Courtyards on 189th Street North often sit between a lanai slab and a screen-cage footer. That pocket holds afternoon rain if the field was laid flat on sand. PaverForge Hardscapes installs and re-levels those courts so water leaves the house instead of sitting under the cage.

The lanai pocket

A pretty border does not fix a court that ponds at the slider. We set the base below the slab, pitch the field to a lawn edge or a drain that already works, and restrain the perimeter so the pavers do not walk into the screen track.

• Base compacted in lifts, not a single loose sand layer

• Pitch away from the house and the lanai track

• Edge restraint against the slab and at open sides

• Joint sand that stays after the first hard rain

When a re-level is enough

Sound pavers with a soft spot can be lifted, the base rebuilt, and the field reset. Hollow units or a failed edge get replaced and blended. We price after we see the cage, the slab joint, and where water stands.
