AfterDriveway & Pavers in Oakland Park: What It Costs and What Matters Most Here
Paver driveway installation in Oakland Park typically runs $7,000-$18,000, while a new concrete driveway usually lands between $4,500 and $12,000. Those are the two numbers homeowners ask about first, and they’re honest ranges for this market, not national averages. What matters just as much in Oakland Park is what’s under the driveway, because the water table here sits only 2 to 4 feet below grade in many areas. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll give you a written line-item price before any work starts.
Fast, Reliable Driveway & Pavers Across Oakland Park
If you live near Andrews Avenue, along Dixie Highway, or back in the ranch-home streets around NE 36th Street, you already know Oakland Park’s flat terrain and shallow water table shape everything we build. A driveway here isn’t just a slab. It’s a drainage decision, a flood-zone consideration, and a surface that has to survive South Florida’s wet season without shifting or cracking. We’ve worked on enough 1950s and 1960s CBS ranch homes in Oakland Park to know what those monolithic slabs and low freeboard lots mean for a new paver or concrete driveway. Dispatch and scheduling for our Oakland Park crews are coordinated from our Miami (South FL) office. When you call (877) 610-1318, a live person answers, not a voicemail box. We’ll set a time to walk your driveway, check the grade, and give you a number that won’t change at the door.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Oakland Park’s Preferred Driveway & Pavers Company
Tom Barrett founded this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews. That’s the whole story in one sentence. Families in Oakland Park call us because they can look up Tom’s name, his address, and his license number before they sign anything. The permit inspector works for you, not for us, and we like it that way. Every change order arrives in writing before any work proceeds. An allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date. If something isn’t done right on your driveway or paver patio, our 90-Day Done Right Promise means one call brings Tom back. No argument. No waiting on a corporate chain. We also publish our standing offers: $40 off any repair over $200, a free second opinion on any written estimate, no trip charge inside Oakland Park, and a permanent 10% senior and veteran discount.
Our Driveway & Pavers Services in Oakland Park
We’re the Driveway & Pavers contractor Oakland Park homeowners call when they want the job done once, with permits where required and a written price that sticks. Here’s what we handle most often in the 33334 ZIP code.
Paver Driveways
A paver driveway in Oakland Park gives you a surface that handles minor ground movement better than a solid slab, which matters when the water table sits just a few feet down. Belgard and Techo-Bloc pavers are brands we install and stand behind. Expect $7,000-$18,000 for a typical residential driveway, depending on square footage, paver line, and how much base prep your lot needs.
Concrete Driveways & Concrete Work
Concrete driveways in Oakland Park run $4,500-$12,000. The wet season from June through October compresses exterior concrete windows here, so we schedule pours carefully and watch the weather. We also handle stamped concrete driveways and smaller concrete pads, walkways, and pool decks. Our crews know how to work with the flat grading and high groundwater that make proper base prep non-negotiable.
Asphalt Driveways & Resurfacing
Asphalt paving in Oakland Park typically lands between $3,500 and $9,000 for a new driveway. Resurfacing an existing asphalt drive costs less and can buy years when the base is still sound. Oakland Park’s heat and afternoon downpours beat up asphalt fast, so sealcoating on a regular schedule matters. Driveway sealing here runs $250-$700.
Driveway Repair & Replacement
If your existing driveway in Oakland Park has sunk, cracked, or developed puddles after every storm, we’ll tell you honestly whether repair or replacement makes more sense. Driveway replacement in this area runs $5,000-$14,000 depending on material and site conditions. Sometimes a paver overlay over a failed slab works; sometimes you’re better off pulling it out and starting with proper base. We’ll show you both numbers in writing.

Common Driveway & Pavers Problems We See in Oakland Park Homes
- Sinking slabs from shallow water table. Oakland Park’s groundwater sits 2 to 4 feet below grade in many areas. Without proper base and compaction, a new slab can settle within two or three wet seasons. We spend more on base prep here than some contractors quote for the whole job, and we’ll tell you why on the estimate.
- Drainage problems on flat lots. Oakland Park is flat. Water doesn’t run off naturally unless the grade and the driveway slope send it somewhere. We see driveways that pond water against the house after a 20-minute summer downpour. The fix usually starts with regrading, not another layer of sealer.
- Older CBS ranch homes with original concrete. Many homes in Oakland Park’s 33334 ZIP were built in the 1950s through 1970s on monolithic slabs with low freeboard. The original driveway from that era is often cracked, spalled, and sitting lower than the garage slab. Replacing it means matching heights carefully at the garage and the sidewalk.
- Hurricane-season scheduling pressure. From June through November, exterior concrete and paver work competes with rain delays. An open paver base or half-poured driveway can lose progress fast in a storm. We schedule Oakland Park paver and concrete jobs in windows that account for South Florida’s afternoon thunderstorm pattern.

Can you handle an emergency driveway repair in Oakland Park?

We’ll get a crew out to assess it and put a temporary safety fix in place if needed. Permanent repairs get a written price first. Our $40-off-any-repair-over-$200 offer applies in Oakland Park.
How do Oakland Park driveway prices compare to nearby cities?
Oakland Park pricing is right in line with the rest of central Broward: paver driveways $7,000-$18,000, concrete $4,500-$12,000, asphalt $3,500-$9,000. What’s different here is site conditions. The high water table and flat lots around Oakland Park sometimes require more base and drainage work than you’d see on a naturally sloped lot, which is why we never quote a driveway without walking it first. Call for a written number specific to your house.

Every Barrett & Sons Construction driveway and paver job carries our 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If it’s not done right, Tom Barrett comes back and makes it right. One call to (877) 610-1318. It’s not a buried warranty kit from a manufacturer’s website; it’s a promise from the owner, with his name and license published so you can hold him to it.
