Pembroke Park’s residential streets - from the CBS homes near SW 30th Avenue to the properties lining the Dixie Highway corridor - sit on some of Broward County’s most challenging ground. The water table runs high, the clay soils hold moisture, and many original 1950s-1960s slabs were poured without the subgrade prep that modern codes require. We’ve replaced enough failed driveways in Pembroke Park to know that cutting corners on base work means callbacks within two or three years.
Why Groundwork Construction Co. of South Florida Is Pembroke Park’s Preferred Driveway & Pavers Company
Our Driveway & Pavers team has worked across Pembroke Park’s compact grid long enough to understand how the town’s unique building department operates. Because Pembroke Park is one of Broward County’s smallest incorporated municipalities, permits pull through the town’s own office rather than the county - and inspectors here know every unpermitted modification hiding behind older commercial facades along US-1. That scrutiny carries over to residential work, and we build to pass it.
Raymond Estevez leads our field operations with a simple standard: built to spec, not to convenience. For Pembroke Park homeowners, that means driveways engineered for the local water table, not a template from drier ground up north.
We carry 50+ recognized industry brands across every category we touch - from Belgard and Unilock pavers to GAF roofing and Andersen windows - so Pembroke Park residents choose materials that match their budget and taste, not what’s convenient for our crew. One contractor, every phase. From driveway to roofline.
Response time to Pembroke Park is typically same-day or next-day for estimates, given our Fort Lauderdale location and familiarity with the 33008 zip code area.
Our Driveway & Pavers Services in Pembroke Park
Paver Driveways
Paver driveway installation in Pembroke Park runs $7,000-$18,000 for a typical two-car residential driveway. We specify Belgard, Unilock, Tremron, and Techo-Bloc products - brands with proven performance in South Florida’s wet-dry cycles and salt air. The critical step most competitors skip: excavating deep enough through Pembroke Park’s clay and occasional fill debris to establish a compacted, drained base that won’t shift when the water table rises during summer storms. We recently re-paved a paver driveway on SW 30th Avenue, just off Dixie Highway, where the original 1960s concrete slab had settled nearly two inches, causing the adjacent paver apron to crack. Our crew excavated to 10 inches, compacted the clay base, and installed a new concrete driveway with proper reinforcement - preventing future sinking in Pembroke Park’s wet, low-lying ground.
Concrete Driveways & Concrete Work
Concrete driveway installation in Pembroke Park costs $4,500-$12,000. The town’s legacy housing stock - predominantly 1950s-1960s CBS construction on slab foundations - includes original concrete driveways poured without steel rebar or proper control joints. Those slabs crack and spall under our intense sun and afternoon downpours. Our concrete specs for Pembroke Park include fiber reinforcement, properly spaced control joints, and a base layer compacted to local standards that accounts for the high water table.
Asphalt Driveways & Resurfacing
Asphalt driveway paving in Pembroke Park ranges $3,500-$9,000. This material sees more use on the commercial and light-industrial properties along the US-1 corridor than in residential areas, where thin base layers have failed in the sandy, moisture-prone soil. For residential applications in Pembroke Park, we typically steer homeowners toward concrete or pavers unless site conditions specifically favor asphalt - the thermal cycling here is hard on blacktop.
Driveway Repair & Replacement
Driveway replacement in Pembroke Park runs $5,000-$14,000. The decision point - repair or full replacement - usually comes down to what’s underneath. If your 1960s slab lacks proper subgrade and shows settlement patterns, patching the surface wastes money. We’ll tell you straight. Same for paver driveways where the base has failed: re-laying bricks on unstable ground buys a year, maybe two.

Our relationships with these manufacturers also mean warranty coverage that travels with the product, not just the installation.
Common Driveway & Pavers Problems We See in Pembroke Park Homes
- Sinking pavers from failed base. Paver driveways sink and become uneven due to the high water table and uncompacted fill from 1950s construction, leading to trip hazards and water pooling. In Pembroke Park, we regularly find original installations where the base was barely scraped and leveled - no compaction, no drainage layer, no geotextile.
- Cracked legacy concrete. Concrete slabs from the 1960s, poured without steel rebar or proper control joints, crack and spall under South Florida’s intense heat and wet-dry cycles. The thermal expansion alone, combined with moisture intrusion through hairline cracks, destroys these surfaces from within.
- Commercial asphalt failure on US-1. Asphalt driveways on the commercial strip along US-1 develop potholes and alligator cracks because the thin base layer fails in Pembroke Park’s sandy, moisture-prone soil. Residential properties see less of this, but any asphalt job here needs deeper base prep than inland specs call for.
- Drainage backflow during rainy season. Pembroke Park’s flat terrain and high water table mean standing water has nowhere to go. Driveways without proper grading and channel drains pool during the June-October rainy season, accelerating freeze-thaw damage even in our subtropical climate - the constant wet-dry cycling is enough.

FAQs - Driveway & Pavers in Pembroke Park
Sinking in Pembroke Park almost always traces back to inadequate base prep in the original 1950s-1960s construction, compounded by our high water table and clay soils that shift with moisture. Mudjacking can lift a slab temporarily, but it doesn’t fix the base - in our experience on SW 30th Avenue and similar streets, the sinking returns within 2-3 years. Full replacement with proper 10-inch excavation and compaction solves the root cause. Call (844) 665-0162 and we’ll assess whether your slab is a candidate for repair or if replacement is the smarter investment.
Only if the slab is structurally sound, properly sloped for drainage, and hasn’t settled - which rules out most 1960s Pembroke Park slabs we’ve encountered. Paving over a failing base traps moisture and guarantees paver failure within a couple of years. We typically recommend removing legacy concrete, excavating to stable ground, and building the base right. For a definitive answer on your specific slab, we’ll come out and check - estimates are free.
Concrete pavers from Belgard, Unilock, or Tremron with sealed surfaces and proper edge restraint outperform natural stone in Pembroke Park’s salt air and intense UV. The key isn’t just the paver - it’s the permeable base assembly that lets water drain rather than pool when our afternoon storms hit. We specify products rated for freeze-thaw cycling even though we don’t freeze; the density standards correlate with durability in wet-dry extremes.
During Pembroke Park’s rainy season, standing water can persist for hours on flat, poorly graded surfaces - which is exactly why we build in slope and drainage from day one. For installation, we don’t pour concrete or set pavers on saturated base material; that traps moisture and weakens the assembly. Our crews monitor conditions and will reschedule rather than compromise the build. Most properly constructed driveways shed water within 30-60 minutes of a typical downpour.
Yes - Pembroke Park operates its own building department, and driveway replacement requires a permit even though it’s a small municipality. The town’s inspectors are thorough, especially with older properties where unpermitted prior work surfaces once excavation begins. We handle the permit pull, the inspections, and any corrections - part of what you get with a single-source contractor who knows the local process. Call (844) 665-0162 to get started.
