AfterFast, Reliable Driveway & Pavers Across Broadview Park
If you’re searching for driveway and paver work in Broadview Park, the honest answer is this: a paver driveway in this community runs $7,000-$18,000 on average, and a full concrete driveway replacement typically lands between $5,000 and $14,000. The bigger question isn’t usually cost, it’s whether the contractor knows what happens when you excavate 18 inches down and hit groundwater, which is a daily reality here. Barrett & Sons Construction has been handling that exact situation since 1998, and we answer our own phone. Call (877) 610-1318 and you’ll talk to a person, not a call center.
Broadview Park isn’t like the incorporated cities around it. You’re unincorporated Broward County, which means every permit, every inspection, and every certificate of occupancy goes through the county building department, not a city hall. That changes how a driveway job gets done, how long it takes, and what the inspector will require before he signs off. We’ve worked that process enough times to know exactly what it wants, and we build to that standard from day one.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Broadview Park’s Preferred Driveway & Pavers Company
Tom Barrett started this company in 1998 and put his name on the truck. That’s not a slogan. His sons run the crews here in Broadview Park and across South Florida, and Tom is on-site most days. If you want to verify any of that, look up his name, his address, and his license number before you sign anything. He publishes all of it, because he lives twenty minutes away and if something’s wrong, he wants to know about it.
Our work in Broadview Park has taught us things you can’t learn from a franchise playbook. We know that the original 1960s CBS ranch homes here sit on a historically shallow water table, and that excavation for a driveway slab frequently hits groundwater within 18 to 24 inches. We know that the Broward County inspector routinely flags non-marine-grade rebar and unsealed joints that would sail through 20 minutes north in Plantation. That’s not a guess, it’s what we see on permit after permit.
Every job comes with a written scope, written allowances, and written change orders before any change touches the work. If a price changes, you’ll see it on paper first. And every completed job is backed by our 90-Day Done Right Promise. One call brings Tom back. That’s the whole guarantee, written on the contract, not buried in fine print.
Our Driveway & Pavers Services in Broadview Park
Paver Driveways
The salt-laced humidity near the South New River Canal and the Atlantic doesn’t just sit on the surface in Broadview Park. It works down into the base and attacks whatever metal is holding your pavers in place. We install paver driveways with hot-dip galvanized steel edge restraints and a compacted limestone subbase with non-woven geotextile, because that’s what survives the saturation and salt air here. A paver driveway done right in this neighborhood typically runs $7,000-$18,000, and the difference between the low and high end is almost always the base work, not the pavers themselves.
Concrete Driveways & Concrete Work
Broadview Park’s mid-century homes often still have their original poured slabs, and those slabs were built before anyone thought about today’s water table realities. When we pour a new concrete driveway here, we dewater the excavation as needed and we spec epoxy-coated or stainless rebar chairs and wire ties. Standard steel corrodes fast in the salt-laced humidity, and that’s how you get spider cracking at the edges inside two wet seasons. Expect a concrete driveway installation in Broadview Park to run $4,500-$12,000.
Asphalt Driveways & Resurfacing
Asphalt holds up reasonably well in Broadview Park as long as the subgrade is dry. The problem is that June through September saturation pushes the water table up into the base layer, and if the subgrade wasn’t compacted right, you’ll see alligator cracking within a few years. We resurface and re-pave asphalt driveways with a proper crushed-stone base and drainage attention, which is the only way to keep the South New River Canal drainage grid from pulling your base material out from under you.
Driveway Repair & Replacement
Replacing a failed driveway in Broadview Park isn’t just a teardown and re-pour. It’s a site-work permit through Broward County, because you’re disturbing more than a flat surface once you re-grade or tie into drainage. We handle that entire process, the patrols, the inspections, the sign-off, on every eligible job. Driveway replacement here runs $5,000-$14,000, and the permit isn’t optional. The last contractor most customers used told them it was.

Trusted Brands We Service in Broadview Park
We install materials from Techo-Bloc and Cambridge Pavers because those are names you can look up, not mystery brands off a van. For concrete work, we use Quikrete products available through local South Florida suppliers, which means if you need a specific paver or edge restraint matched later, it’s still on the shelf within a day. When you’re in Broadview Park, that matters, because a driveway isn’t something you want to rip out twice because a discontinued paver can’t be matched.
Common Driveway & Pavers Problems We See in Broadview Park Homes
- Washed-out paver joints: Standard sand joints don’t survive the June-September rain cycle here. The saturated base swells, flushes the sand into the drainage grid, and your pavers start shifting. We seal joints with polymeric sealant on every job.
- Water table hit during excavation: Digging more than 18-24 inches in Broadview Park often hits groundwater. Contractors who skip dewatering leave you with a soft, shifting subbase that cracks the surface within two wet seasons.
- Rusted rebar and wire ties: The salt-laced humidity corrodes standard steel chairs and ties inside concrete driveways. We use epoxy-coated or stainless ties on every pour here, and the county inspector expects it.
- Paver base laid over old concrete: We’ve pulled out paver driveways that were laid directly over the original 1960s slab with no drainage mat. The old rebar had rusted through, and the pavers were sinking into the saturated base.
One of the worst we’ve seen was on a 1960s CBS ranch off Riverland Road. The old paver driveway was failing because it had been laid right over the original concrete with no drainage mat. The salt-air humidity had rusted the existing light-gauge rebar, and the pavers were sinking into the saturated base. We re-scoped the work with a hot-dip galvanized steel edge restraint, added a 6-inch compacted limestone subbase with a non-woven geotextile, and sealed every joint. The Broward County inspection sign-off came before we moved to the punch list. Driveway & Pavers work in this neighborhood requires that level of care.

FAQs - Driveway & Pavers in Broadview Park
Yes. Broadview Park is unincorporated Broward County, so any work that disturbs more than a flat surface, including re-grading, drainage tie-ins, or replacing a failed slab, runs through the Broward County site-work permit process, not a city hall stamp. We pull the permit on every eligible job, and the inspector signs off before we call it done. Call (877) 610-1318 and we can tell you exactly which permit applies to your property.
Because Broadview Park sits on a shallow water table, which means excavation for a paver base frequently hits groundwater at 18-24 inches and requires dewatering that Davie’s drier inland sites rarely need. The county inspector here also routinely requires marine-grade rebar or hot-dip galvanized edge restraints and sealed joints that would pass in other towns. That material and labor difference is the gap between a $7,000 quote and one closer to $18,000. Get a written quote and compare apples to apples.
Stop using standard sand. Polymeric sealant is the only thing that holds up through the June-September saturation cycle here, because it binds the joints and doesn’t flush into the South New River Canal drainage grid the way loose sand does. We seal every joint on every paver job in Broadview Park. Call (877) 610-1318 if your joints are already washing out, and we’ll take a look.
No, a driveway doesn’t qualify for a Citizens Insurance wind-mitigation credit; those credits come from impact windows, roof-to-wall straps, and other structural openings. But a properly drained driveway does protect your foundation and keep water away from the structure, which matters for your home’s overall condition and insurability here. If you’re doing wind-mitigation work, ask about bundling it with your driveway scope.
Concrete pavers from Techo-Bloc or Cambridge Pavers hold up best in Broadview Park, because they’re dense and non-porous enough to resist the salt-laced humidity that breaks down clay brick and cheaper pavers quickly. The material matters less than the installation, though: hot-dip galvanized edge restraints and a proper limestone subbase will outlast any paver you choose. We install with the full coastal spec on every job here.
