Fast, Reliable Driveway & Pavers Across Parkland
Driveway and paver work in Parkland usually costs between $3,500 and $18,000 depending on material and scope, and the biggest variable most homeowners here don’t expect is the approval timeline, not the labor. The HOA Architectural Review Committee in gated communities like Heron Bay and Parkland Golf & Country Club has to sign off before the city will even accept a permit application. That two-step process can add weeks if it’s not handled correctly from day one. Barrett & Sons Construction has been navigating both tracks in Parkland for years, and we file the ARC submittal and the city permit at the same time so the work never sits half-finished waiting on a committee. Call (877) 610-1318 and Tom or one of his sons will walk you through exactly what your project needs.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Parkland’s Preferred Driveway & Pavers Company
We’re not a national outfit dispatching strangers to Parkland from three counties away. Tom Barrett’s name is on the truck and his sons run the crews. That matters in a city like Parkland, where every driveway inside a gated community has to clear an Architectural Review Committee with elevations, material samples, and finish-color swatches before the city reviews the permit. We know which paver colors the Heron Bay ARC has approved in the last two years and which Techo-Bloc and Cambridge lines tend to get pushback on corner lots. That local knowledge saves our Parkland customers real money because re-submittals are what drag projects into a third month.
Tom founded Barrett & Sons in 1998 and he’s been owner-operated ever since. When you call (877) 610-1318, a live person answers. When you ask for a written change order before any scope shift, you get one on paper. When you look up our license number, you find Tom’s name, not a holding company. Parkland homeowners between 50 and 70 have told us they’re done with phone quotes that change by the time the crew shows up. We run scope in writing, allowances in writing, and change orders in writing, and the 90-Day Done Right Promise is written on every contract. If it’s not done right, Tom comes back. One call.
Our Driveway & Pavers Services in Parkland
Paver Driveways
Paver driveway installation in Parkland typically runs $7,000 to $18,000 for a full replacement or new build. We install Techo-Bloc, Cambridge Pavers, and Oldcastle product lines with a compacted base that’s engineered for Parkland’s high seasonal water table. If the base isn’t right on flat Everglades-fringe soil, pavers settle within a year and you’re re-leveling and re-sanding before the second rainy season. We compact in lifts and run the drainage plan through review with the city so the finished surface sheds water toward the street, not toward your foundation.

Concrete Driveways & Concrete Work
A new concrete driveway in Parkland generally costs $4,500 to $12,000. We pour 4,000-psi mix with proper control joints and finish grading set to the high point at the garage slab. Older CBS homes in Parkland built from the late 1980s through the mid-2000s are now showing slab settlement at street edges, so we handle full removals, re-pours, and slab work. If your driveway increases impervious area, we handle the SFWMD drainage review in parallel with the city permit instead of discovering it after materials are ordered.

Asphalt Driveways & Resurfacing
Asphalt paving in Parkland runs $3,500 to $9,000 for a new driveway, though we’re honest with customers here: asphalt is rarely the best material on Parkland’s flat, high-water-table lots. It softens under standing water, and standing water is exactly what poor grading on these lots creates. We’ll tell you when asphalt makes sense and when a concrete or paver surface will last longer. No mystery-bid games. You’ll get a written line-item quote either way.

Driveway Repair & Replacement
Driveway replacement in Parkland typically runs $5,000 to $14,000 depending on square footage, demo condition, and whether your HOA requires material match to neighboring homes. We remove failed slabs, correct the base, and re-pour or re-lay with materials that clear the ARC the first time. Sealing runs $250 to $700. If your existing driveway has settled at the street edge and water is pooling against the foundation, call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll come look before it becomes a bigger structural issue.

Common Driveway & Pavers Problems We See in Parkland Homes
- Settled slabs at the street edge. Parkland’s high water table and flat terrain cause concrete to settle exactly where the driveway meets the road, leaving a lip that catches tires and sends water toward the house. We see this on 1990s Heron Bay homes with the original slabs.
- Standing water against the foundation. Improper finish grading during the original build leaves low points that hold water through the rainy season. Chronic ponding isn’t cosmetic here; it can trigger FEMA flood-zone compliance questions and insurance headaches when you go to sell.
- Permit stalls from missed ARC or SFWMD review. Contractors who skip the HOA Architectural Review start demolition and get hit with a city stop-work order, leaving an open excavation for weeks. We’ve been called to fix jobs where a driveway was already cut out and the committee hadn’t seen elevations.
- Paver settling within the first year. If base compaction is rushed on Parkland’s wet soil, pavers sink and shift before the next dry season. We lift, recompact, and re-lay with proper edge restraint so you’re not paying for the same job twice.

How Parkland’s Approval Process Shapes Driveway Work
Parkland’s identity as “A City in the Country” isn’t a slogan; it’s a legal framework. The city enforces some of Broward County’s strictest tree-preservation ordinances and environmental setback rules, and nearly every exterior project, including a driveway replacement, triggers a tree survey and possibly a canopy mitigation plan. Because Parkland sits at the western edge of the city adjacent to Everglades conservation land, most driveway projects that add impervious area also require South Florida Water Management District review. That dual-track burden, city plus SFWMD, is unique to Parkland and doesn’t apply with the same force one city over in Coral Springs.
Inside gated communities like Heron Bay and Parkland Golf & Country Club, the Architectural Review Committee runs its own approval first. You need elevations, material samples, and finish-color swatches submitted to the ARC before the city will accept a permit application. If a contractor starts demolition without ARC sign-off, the city issues a stop-work order and you’re left with an open excavation and a committee that won’t meet again for two weeks. We run both approval tracks simultaneously from day one. Tom’s crew has done this enough times in Parkland that we know which pavers clear review, how long the committee takes, and when to order materials so the delivery lands the same week approval releases.
A recent example: we replaced a failing 1,200-square-foot concrete driveway in the Heron Bay community off Nob Hill Road. The existing slab had settled over two inches at the street edge and spalled across most of the surface, causing standing water against the foundation. We filed the ARC submittal, coordinated the tree survey and SFWMD drainage review in parallel with the city permit, then removed and re-poured with a 4,000-psi mix and proper high-point grading toward the street. We scheduled the pour the same week approval released. The driveway was never sitting half-finished waiting on a committee, and the homeowner had a written line-item price before a single square foot of concrete was cut.

FAQs - Driveway & Pavers in Parkland
Yes, in every Parkland gated community. The ARC must sign off on elevations, material samples, and finish colors before the city will accept the permit application. We file the ARC submittal for you and run the city and SFWMD reviews in parallel so the project doesn’t stall. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll handle the full packet.
Most Parkland driveway projects add two to four weeks for the combined city and SFWMD review, though the HOA ARC can add another one to three weeks depending on their meeting calendar. We start both tracks at the same time and schedule material delivery and crew time to match the approval window. The key is not starting demolition before the paperwork clears; we never leave an open excavation waiting on a committee.
Yes, in most cases we can lay pavers over an existing slab if the slab is structurally sound and has no significant cracking or settlement. We’ll evaluate your current driveway and tell you honestly whether an overlay will last or whether the failed base under the slab will just telegraph through the new pavers. If the slab has settled due to Parkland’s high water table, removal and a proper base rebuild is the only way it won’t fail again. Call (877) 610-1318 for a free assessment.
We remove the failed slab, correct the base with proper compaction for Parkland’s wet soil, and re-pour with 4,000-psi concrete graded to drain toward the street. If your driveway increases impervious area, we handle the SFWMD drainage review with the city permit so the job closes properly. Leaving a settled slab only deepens the ponding and can lead to insurance and resale headaches when the FEMA flood zone comes up.
Often, yes. Parkland’s tree-preservation ordinance is stricter than neighboring cities, and if your driveway expansion touches a protected tree’s root zone or increases impervious area, the city will require a tree survey and possibly a canopy mitigation plan. We coordinate that survey as part of the permit packet so there are no surprise denials after materials are already on order. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll tell you up front what your specific lot needs.
