90th Avenue North St. Pete Aprons

90th Avenue North sits on the north St. Petersburg grid between Shore Acres and the Riviera Bay edge, where short aprons meet a collector street and a sidewalk that does not always line up with the garage.

What the apron has to do

Most of these fronts are a single curb cut with a tight flare. The garage slab is often higher than the gutter, and oak shade keeps the first courses damp. A sand-set field walks at the sidewalk joint first.

• Match the city sidewalk and gutter lip so the tire does not slap the edge

• Pitch the throat to the street, not back at the garage slab

• Use 80mm driveway pavers in the vehicle path and a soldier border that can be lifted later

• Keep the stockpile off the neighbor's only side access

How we set it

PaverForge Hardscapes measures the slab lip and the gutter before the first cut. We excavate to a compacted aggregate base, restrain the street edge, and lock the joints after compaction. Call 727-490-9798 or book at https://www.paverforge.com/book-online.
