Paver Driveways in Sun Bay South, St. Petersburg

Sun Bay South sits just south of Gandy Boulevard in St. Petersburg, a pocket of ranch lots and live oaks between the Gandy corridor and the bayou edge. Streets are quiet. Frontages are short. Afternoon storms sheet across flat garage slabs that were poured with almost no pitch.

PaverForge Hardscapes treats Sun Bay South as a mainland sand job, not a copied barrier-island spec. Call 727-490-9798 or book at paverforge.com/book-online.

What the lots actually do

Typical calls are settled concrete ribbons, heaved edges along the oak drip line, and driveway throats that pond after a summer cell. We undercut organic pockets, set a compacted crushed-concrete base in thin lifts, and keep a two-percent pitch off the garage slab toward the street or a designed swale — never toward the house.

Access and staging

Many Sun Bay South streets do not take two dump trucks and a pallet stack at once. We stage on mats, protect the neighbor strip, and sequence cuts so one car can still park overnight. Utility locates happen before excavation because older laterals and irrigation are common on this side of Gandy.
