Lake Shore Estates Driveways in St. Petersburg

Lake Shore Estates sits on the south side of Lake Maggiore with a high water table and streets that flood the first course if the base was a thin sand bed. PaverForge Hardscapes installs and re-levels paver drives here from St. Pete Beach.

The lots look finished. The subgrade is still Florida sand. If the existing stones are sound, we re-level instead of tearing the field out. If the base pumps when you walk it after rain, we excavate and rebuild.

Details that keep the field dry

  • Geotextile over organic pockets before crushed-concrete base

  • Pitch off the house and toward a legal outfall, not the neighbor

  • Edge restraint pinned at corners so king-tide washout does not start there

  • Joints that can be re-sanded after storm season

Call PaverForge Hardscapes at 727-490-9798 with two photos of the drive and the lake-side low corner. We typically reply the same business day.

A flush flag-staff socket plate sets a removable courtesy-flag socket in the seawall cap or dock-edge pavers so the opening is not a toe catch when the staff is out.
