Unilock Construction in Palm Beach Gardens, FL | Bradford Remodeling Co West Palm Beach
We provide independent Unilock construction and repair service across Palm Beach Gardens, from paver patios and driveways to retaining walls and pool decks. What makes our Unilock work different here is simple: we know Palm Beach Gardens soil, and we build Unilock systems to survive it. Curtis Lane, our owner, has been running jobs in this region for years, and our crews have re-seated more failed Unilock surfaces in PGA National than we can count. Call (728) 203-9809 for a free estimate that includes a written price before any work starts.
Why Palm Beach Gardens Residents Choose Us for Unilock Service
Most paver crews in South Florida will install whatever you hand them. We work differently. Curtis Lane learned the trade at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College and spent three decades on slab foundations, general contractor work in Palm Beach Gardens, gut renovations, and exterior hardscapes before bringing that discipline to West Palm Beach. When a Unilock patio fails in Palm Beach Gardens, it usually isn’t the paver’s fault. It’s the base underneath. We diagnose the real problem first, then fix it so it stays fixed.
We’re an independent Unilock service provider. No manufacturer affiliation, no authorized-dealer script to follow. That means we’re free to tell you when a repair will hold and when a full replacement actually makes sense. We use genuine Unilock pavers for blend repairs and premium aftermarket polymeric sands and edge restraints where they outperform OEM in Florida heat. Our teams arrive background-checked and uniformed. Your written price doesn’t move at the door. And every project carries the 365-Day Done Right Promise: if the work fails within a year, we return and correct it at no charge.

Common Unilock Construction Problems We Solve in Palm Beach Gardens
We see the same failure patterns repeat across Palm Beach Gardens, especially in the gated communities. Here’s what we correct most often:
- Efflorescence blooms near pool decks and spas. Constant humidity, splash-out, and poor original drainage push minerals up through Unilock pavers, leaving that chalky white film. We identify the moisture source, correct the drainage, and clean without acid etching the paver surface.
- Sinking and shifting of paver patios and walkways. Palm Beach Gardens sits on sandy, poorly compacted soil. When an installer skimps on base depth, the first hurricane-season rains settle everything unevenly. We excavate properly, re-level, and re-compact in lifts.
- Polymeric sand erosion between Unilock pavers. Intense UV and torrential downpours break down cheap jointing sand fast. That opens joints to weeds and ant colonies. We install high-performance polymeric sand rated for Florida’s wet-dry cycle.
- Cracking and spalling of Unilock retaining walls. In gated communities where walls hold back landscaped beds, improper drainage behind the wall builds hydrostatic pressure during summer downpours. The wall bows and cracks. We rebuild with proper gravel backfill and weep systems.
- Edge restraint failure on driveways and paver borders. Without solid edge restraint, Unilock pavers drift outward under vehicle load and thermal expansion. We install commercial-grade aluminum or concrete edge restraint that holds the pattern tight.
Unilock Service in Palm Beach Gardens: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Palm Beach Gardens sits on a high-water-table ridge of sandy, poorly compacted soil. This is not the same base you’d find in coastal West Palm Beach, and it’s not the clay you’d hit in parts of Broward. It matters because Unilock pavers are only as good as what’s underneath them. In PGA National, we routinely excavate to 12 – 14 inches for paver bases rather than the standard 8 – 10 inches used in neighboring Jupiter. Why? Because the sandy substrate here doesn’t lock together under compaction the way denser soil does. Add the June-to-November rains, and a shallow base will shift within a season or two. That’s the exact problem we see again and again. We also specify geotextile fabric and deeper edge restraint on every Unilock installation in Palm Beach Gardens because the high water table means water moves laterally through the soil profile, not down. If you want Unilock paving that stays flat here, the prep has to be built for this ridge, not a generic Florida spec.
A good example came from a custom home in the Marlwood Estates section of PGA National. We replaced a failed Unilock Beacon Hill Flagstone pool deck that had sunk two inches under a hot tub. The original installer had used six inches of sand base with no edge restraint. We excavated to the proper depth, laid geotextile, ten inches of compacted limestone, and re-seated the same pavers with new polymeric sand. That deck now sits flat through the heaviest rainstorms, and the homeowners later added our kitchen remodeling in Palm Beach Gardens along with a matching Unilock fire pit perimeter.
Unilock Models & Products We Service in Palm Beach Gardens
Our crews work with the full range of Unilock product lines common in Palm Beach Gardens luxury homes. We service and install Beacon Hill Flagstone, Brussels Block, Richcliff, and Estate Wall systems, among others. When a repair requires blending with existing pavers, we source genuine Unilock units so the color and texture match. For jointing, edge restraint, and base materials, we use premium aftermarket components that equal or exceed Unilock OEM performance in South Florida heat and moisture. We keep common repair stock local for faster Palm Beach Gardens turnaround, so a paver repair doesn’t stall waiting on a freight shipment.

AfterUnilock Service Pricing in Palm Beach Gardens
Pricing for Unilock construction in Palm Beach Gardens depends on site conditions, access, and the scope of base work required. Here are the ranges our customers in this area most often see:
| Service | Price Range |
|---|---|
| Paver Patio Installation | $3,500 – $11,000 |
| Paver Driveway Installation | $7,000 – $18,000 |
| Kitchen Island Installation | $3,000 – $10,000 |
What drives the cost in Palm Beach Gardens specifically is the base depth and drainage work described above. A patio over poorly compacted sandy soil needs more excavation and more compacted limestone than the same project in a neighboring city. Your free estimate includes a written line-item price before any work starts, and that number doesn’t move unless you change the scope. Call (728) 203-9809 for an exact quote.

FAQs – Unilock Construction in Palm Beach Gardens
Yes, but only with the right base. In Palm Beach Gardens’ sandy ridge soil, we excavate to 12 – 14 inches, install geotextile, and compact limestone in lifts before setting Unilock pavers. Standard shallow bases fail here after the first heavy rain season. Call (728) 203-9809 to schedule a free site evaluation and written estimate for your driveway.
That’s efflorescence, caused by moisture moving through the pavers and depositing mineral salts on the surface. In Palm Beach Gardens, high humidity and pool splash-out make it common. We fix the drainage or moisture source first, then clean the pavers with a method that won’t etch the surface.
PGA National and other Palm Beach Gardens gated communities typically require approval for exterior hardscape changes. We provide material specifications, color samples, and a written scope for your HOA application. We’ve worked around these rules enough to know what gets approved.
The weeds are a symptom of failing joint sand. We remove the old sand, treat the joints, and install high-performance polymeric sand rated for Florida’s wet-dry cycle. That closes the joints so weeds and ants can’t get established. Call (728) 203-9809 and we’ll assess your paver joints for free.
Often yes. If the wall is cracked from hydrostatic pressure but the paver units are intact, we can rebuild the affected section with proper gravel backfill and drainage, reusing your existing Unilock units. We’ll tell you straight if the whole wall is beyond saving.
