AfterFast, Reliable Driveway & Pavers Across Davie
If you live in Davie, you already know the town is different from the rest of South Florida. Horse trailers on Flamingo Road. Barns on 1-acre lots. Driveways that have to handle a pickup truck, a golf cart, and a 1,200-pound animal every single day. A typical paver driveway installation in Davie runs $7,000 to $18,000, and a concrete driveway runs $4,500 to $12,000. We’re Barrett & Sons Construction, and we’ve built driveways, patios, and pool decks all over the 33314 ZIP. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll come take a look at what you’ve got.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Davie’s Preferred Driveway & Pavers Company
Tom Barrett started this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews now. That’s not marketing language; that’s who shows up at your gate. In Davie, where the Town’s permitting process can turn a two-week job into a three-month headache if you miss a step, having a contractor who’s already navigated the agricultural overlay process matters a lot. Our Driveway & Pavers team has scoped equestrian setbacks, high-water-table drainage, and stormwater tie-ins on more Davie properties than we can count. We’re the ones other contractors call when they realize the permit office isn’t going to let them pour concrete next to a paddock fence without a design review.
You’ll get a written scope, written allowances, and a written change order before any price moves. Every eligible job gets permits pulled and inspections signed. And every completed job carries the 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing: if it’s not done right, Tom comes back and fixes it. One call.
Our Driveway & Pavers Services in Davie
Paver Driveways
Davie is horse country, and your driveway is a working surface. Standard residential pavers get ruts when a horse trailer backs in every weekend. We spec pavers rated for equine traffic, over a compacted aggregate base that handles the weight of a loaded trailer plus daily hoof work. Brands we install regularly include Techo-Bloc and Cambridge Pavers, and we scope the base depth for Davie’s soil, not a generic Florida mix. A paver driveway in Davie typically runs $7,000 to $18,000 depending on square footage, base conditions, and whether the agricultural overlay requires a setback adjustment along a barn or stable access.
Concrete Driveways & Concrete Work
Concrete on a low-lying Davie lot is a different animal than concrete in Pembroke Pines. The water table here sits high, and a slab poured on an unprepared base will heave and hold standing water within a year or two. We tie every concrete driveway into Broward County’s stormwater grid, which often means a shallow swale along the edge and a slightly steeper grade than homeowners expect. Ranges for concrete driveway installation in Davie run $4,500 to $12,000. If your existing slab is cracked beyond patching, full replacement typically comes in between $5,000 and $14,000.
Asphalt Driveways & Resurfacing
Asphalt is a practical choice for long, straight Davie driveways that stretch back to a barn or paddock. It’s cheaper upfront, but the South Florida heat and the heavy equipment you park on it demand periodic sealing and resurfacing. Asphalt paving in Davie generally runs $3,500 to $9,000 for a standard residential driveway. You’ll want to keep an eye on drainage, because standing water on asphalt after a summer storm breaks the surface down faster than anything else.
Driveway Repair & Replacement
We see three common failure modes on Davie driveways. First, edge spalling and rutting where horse trailers load and unload. Second, slab heave from water table pressure on low-lying lots. Third, ponding water that never quite drains because the original pour didn’t account for Broward’s stormwater rules. We repair what’s repairable and replace what isn’t, and we’ll tell you which one you need before you spend a dollar. Driveway sealing runs $250 to $700 and buys you a couple extra seasons on an otherwise sound surface.

Trusted Brands We Service in Davie
We install Techo-Bloc and Cambridge Pavers on most Davie paver jobs, and we use Quikrete products for concrete work where the spec calls for a premium mix. We order directly from local distributors who serve the 33314 area, which means faster delivery when your permit finally clears and the rainy season gives us a three-day window to get the pour done. We don’t stock mystery brands off a van, and we’ll tell you exactly which paver line we’re quoting so you can look it up yourself before you sign.
Common Driveway & Pavers Problems We See in Davie Homes
- Rutting under horse trailers. A standard paver base isn’t rated for the tongue weight of a loaded two-horse trailer. We see ruts form within the first year on driveways built by contractors who’ve never worked on an equestrian lot. The fix is a deeper compacted base and pavers with a higher load rating.
- Slab heave from the high water table. Davie’s terrain sits on Everglades-adjacent land, and water barely has to go looking for a place to settle. Concrete poured without proper base preparation will lift, crack, and create trip hazards at the slab edges.
- Standing water that violates stormwater rules. Broward County requires ground-disturbing work to tie into the stormwater grid, and a driveway that ponds after every thunderstorm isn’t just ugly, it’s a code issue. We design the grade and drain edge around the lot’s natural fall line.
- Skip the agricultural overlay review and you’ll pay for it. If your Davie property is zoned for horses, the Town has a second layer of review that neighboring cities don’t. Missing it brings a stop-work order and a change order to tear out and re-scope the driveway edge setbacks.

FAQs - Driveway & Pavers in Davie
Yes, if your property falls under the Town’s agricultural overlay, repaving a driveway that provides barn or paddock access requires a review step that standard residential paving doesn’t. We identify this during the initial scope walk and coordinate the permit submittal with both the Town and Broward County so the inspection sign-off happens in the right order. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll confirm what your property requires before you commit to a quote.
Because Davie’s water table is so high, the ground beneath a slab becomes saturated quickly, and runoff from your yard can flow onto the driveway before the storm drain draws it down. The fix is usually a shallow swale or a permeable edge strip that lets water sheet into the stormwater grid instead of pooling on the surface. We check the lot’s fall line and tie the design into Broward County’s drainage rules before we ever pour.
Yes, and it has less to do with the paver itself and more with the base underneath. Pavers used on equine traffic driveways should be rated for heavy, repetitive point loads, and the aggregate base needs to be thicker than a standard residential install. We spec the appropriate depth based on the number of horses, trailer size, and how often the driveway sees daily hoof traffic. Your final quote will reflect the structural load rating for your property, not a generic driveway formula.
It depends on the rain pattern and the lot. A dry window in July is perfectly fine for a pour if we’ve prepared the base and scheduled the inspection; a week of daily afternoon thunderstorms means we’ll hold until the ground drains enough to hold a compacted base. We build rain delay into our scheduling for Davie jobs, and we’ll tell you during the quote whether your low-lying lot needs additional drainage prep before concrete makes sense.
The Western/ranch theme requirement applies to commercial corridors like University Drive, not to single-family residential driveways. Your residential driveway does not need a design review under that specific code, though it may need agricultural overlay review if it serves a barn or stable. We’ll tell you exactly which rules apply to your property before any work is scheduled.
Building on Acreage in Davie: What We Scope Before We Quote
Most of our Davie driveway work sits on lots a half-acre to two acres, and that changes the math. We’re often working around a septic system, a well, a paddock, and a barn, all on the same parcel. Septic setback rules mean we can’t run a paver edge through a drain field no matter how convenient it would be. Wellhead clearance plays in too. And because so many Davie lots stretch long from the road, material haul and equipment access get factored in differently than a zero-lot-line lot in Cooper City. We walk the full property before we quote, and we put every scope item in writing: what’s included, what’s excluded, and what happens if we find something under the dirt after we start. That’s the only honest way to price a job on an open lot.
How Davie’s Permitting Changes Your Driveway Project
Only Davie among South Florida municipalities legally preserves equestrian zoning and horse-trail easements throughout its residential areas, so many paver driveway jobs must be scoped to withstand daily hoof traffic and manure-laden runoff while meeting both residential building codes and the Town’s agricultural overlay permitting. This is a dual-track process that neighboring Plantation or Pembroke Pines contractors never face, because those cities don’t have horse zoning. A contractor who’s never filed an agricultural overlay application will quote you a driveway like it’s any other flat lot, and then the Town stops the job when the pavers go in too close to the barn access. We’ve been through the process dozens of times. We know what the inspector is checking at the agricultural sign-off, and we schedule the draw so the horses keep coming and going during the whole job.
On a 1.3-acre lot off Flamingo Road in the 33314 ZIP, our crew replaced a crumbling asphalt driveway with interlocking concrete pavers rated for equestrian use. We tied the base design to Broward County’s stormwater grid by adding permeable joint fill and a shallow swale along the paddock fence, then coordinated the draw schedule around the agricultural overlay permit inspection sign-off so the homeowners’ horses could keep coming and going during the whole job. That’s what Davie work actually looks like. We don’t shortcut it, and we don’t quote it like it’s a driveway in a subdivision with an HOA and no animals.
