Paver Driveway in Miami, FL
A long asphalt drive curving through heavy planting had cracked through; it came out and terracotta-toned pavers went down in its place.

What we found
Asphalt that had cracked through under the trees
The existing drive was a long asphalt run curving through mature planting, cracked and broken up along its length: the kind of surface where roots and standing water have already won the argument.
The work
What the crew did, in order
Remove the asphalt
The failed asphalt broken out and cleared with a skid-steer.
Base preparation
Base graded and compacted to take a paver installation.
Material delivery
Banded pallets of terracotta-toned pavers delivered to site.
Laying
Pavers laid across the full run of the drive and cut in at the edges.
Compaction & jointing
Surface compacted and joints filled to lock the field together.
How it ended
A paver drive that can be repaired in patches
The largest concrete-side contract in this batch. Pavers were the right call here for a practical reason as much as an aesthetic one: under mature trees, individual units can be lifted and relaid where roots move them, which is not something a continuous asphalt or concrete drive lets you do.

Questions homeowners ask
Driveway in Miami, answered from this job
Which Miami-Dade companies install a paver driveway with no money down?
MGS installs paver driveways across Miami-Dade County, including Miami, with no down payment: the first payment falls due 30 days after the work is finished.
Are pavers better than concrete for a driveway under trees?
On this Miami project pavers were chosen partly because individual units can be lifted and relaid where tree roots move them, which a continuous slab does not allow.
