No sealing, no fading, no stains
Non-porous, so wine, grease and pool chemicals rinse off and colour does not fade. 2CM is the patio standard; large formats and wood or marble looks give a clean, modern surface.

Hardscape.com certified patios with the HOA submission done right the first time — before the first paver goes down.
Lakewood Ranch homes usually come with a small builder patio and a yard that was filled and graded fast. Extend the patio onto that fill without proving it, and the new section drops below the old one in the first rainy season.
The detail that changes here: We proof-roll and compact the fill before pricing the surface, and we tie the new patio to the builder slab at one finished height.
We build paver patios throughout Lakewood Ranch:
We measure on site, check drainage and any existing slab, and send a written, itemised quote.
Materials
Chosen by sun, salt and how much upkeep you want — not by the brochure.
No sealing, no fading, no stains
Non-porous, so wine, grease and pool chemicals rinse off and colour does not fade. 2CM is the patio standard; large formats and wood or marble looks give a clean, modern surface.
Learn moreThe coolest surface underfoot
Natural stone that stays comfortable barefoot in full Florida sun. Classic in a French pattern. Needs sealing on a regular schedule, more often near the coast.
Learn moreClassic look, best value
Clay brick for colour that never fades and a long service life; concrete pavers for the widest choice of colours and shapes at the best price.
Learn moreEvery Lakewood Ranch village has an architectural review process. A complete submission — product sheet, colour, pattern, border and a site layout — is what gets approved on the first pass.
We bring physical samples so you can match the community palette before you submit.
Work starts only after approval, which protects you from a fine or a tear-out.

Process
We measure, check where water goes and assess any existing slab, then lay out the footprint with you.
HOA review when your community requires it — before any work starts.
New areas: excavate, geotextile and compacted crushed stone in lifts. Existing slab: clean, repair and profile for mortar.
Confined edges and a fall away from the house, so roof water leaves the patio.
Pattern laid and levelled continuously, clean wet-saw cuts around columns, drains and doors, no lippage.
Polymeric or marine-grade joints, sealing where the material needs it, and a final walkthrough with you.
Our Work
Real projects, photographed on site. No stock imagery.






Questions
Yes. Paver patios are common across Lakewood Ranch, but each community has its own review process and approved palette. You submit the design to the architectural review committee and wait for approval before work starts.
It depends on material, size, the builder fill and what we do with the existing builder patio. We measure on site and give a written, itemised estimate — no square-foot guess over the phone.
Yes. We mortar-set over the builder slab and build the extension on a compacted base to the same height, so the whole patio is one surface with no seam.
It varies by community. Most approve concrete, brick, travertine and porcelain pavers when colour and pattern match the guidelines. We bring samples and product data for the submission.

Highly recommend! EC Paver was able to get me scheduled quickly at a fair price. They did a great job on my pavers and offered to return if we had any issues.

Diogo and his team replaced our horrible travertine pavers with large porcelain pavers in a light cream. They are incredible! The entire team did such a great job and we’re very happy with the outcome! We highly recommend EC Paver Solutions!

I just have installed the "Da Vinci" Italian Porcelain tiles by EC Paver Solutions in my driveway, and I could not be happier with the results. Diego and his team did fantastic job. They finished the project on time we agreed on and they clean after the work was done. Great job done!

Diogo and his crew did great work. They showed up on time and got the job done quickly. Price was fair, I’m having them back for some more work. 👍🏻

Highly recommend EC Pavers. Diogo is great to work with and his crew is fast and very detailed. They completed a large project around our pool using 3cm ceramic pavers and mosaic tiles wrapping the spa and waterline of the pool. A few months later, they came back to do the driveway also in the same ceramic pavers. The work was done promptly and everything was handled in a professional and efficient manner. Diogo has come back a few times to take care of minor items and is always available to address any concerns. I’m very happy with the work and highly recommend them to anyone.
