Tremron Driveway & Pavers: The Fort Lauderdale Owner’s Guide
If you have a Tremron paver driveway, walkway, or patio in Fort Lauderdale and a section is sinking, cracking, or separating, the fix is usually more straightforward than you think. We stock Tremron-compatible pavers in the most common Fort Lauderdale sizes and colors, and a typical repair involving paver replacement or re-leveling runs $250 to $1,200 depending on square footage and base condition. Most homeowners call us after a summer of heavy rain, when they notice a low spot collecting water near the driveway edge or a paver that rocks underfoot every time they walk to the mailbox.
Key Takeaways
- We match Tremron paver sizes, colors, and thickness for repairs and full driveway replacements in Fort Lauderdale.
- Most Tremron driveway repairs cost less than a full replacement, but a bad base means you’ll keep chasing the same problem.
- A full paver driveway installation in Fort Lauderdale typically runs $7,000 to $18,000 depending on size, access, and base work.
- We install other professional-grade hardscape lines too, including Belgard, Unilock, and Techo-Bloc, plus we work with KraftMaid, Cambria, and Silestone on interior projects.
Which Tremron Models This Applies To
Tremron is a Florida-born paver manufacturer, and their products are everywhere in Fort Lauderdale, from Victoria Park and Rio Vista driveways to pool decks in Coral Ridge. The brand produces multiple paver lines including the Tremron Estate Stone, Tremron Mega Olde Towne, Tremron Park Avenue, and Tremron Travertine lines. Each line has its own thickness, surface texture, and dimensional tolerance, which means a paver from one Tremron line will not always sit flush next to a paver from another line, even if the top dimensions look identical to the eye. This is the most common compatibility mistake we see when homeowners try to patch a driveway themselves.
How to identify your pavers: look for a legend or stamp on the underside of a loose paver. Tremron pavers generally come in thicknesses of 60mm for pedestrian areas and 80mm for driveways. The 80mm thickness is a hard requirement for any surface that will hold vehicle weight. If you’re not sure what you have, take a photo of the paver from the top and from the side profile and call us at (754) 354-3720. We can usually identify the line and color from photos, and we’ll tell you honestly whether an exact match is still being produced or whether we need to source a close equivalent.
One more spec worth knowing: Tremron colors shift slightly between production runs. A paver bought in 2019 under the name “Tan” will not perfectly match a 2024 run of “Tan.” We account for this by blending replacement pavers from multiple areas of the driveway to hide the difference, a trick that only works if you have enough existing pavers to work with. If we’re replacing a large section, we’ll order from a single production run so the whole area reads as one color.

Signs Your Tremron Driveway & Pavers Is Failing
- Water pooling in one low spot after rain. This usually means the sand base has washed out underneath, often because a downspout or sprinkler head has been dumping water in the same place for years. In Fort Lauderdale, our flat terrain and high water table make this the most common failure we see.
- Pavers rocking when you step on them. A rocking paver means the bedding sand below it has settled unevenly. It’s an annoyance now, but if it’s in a driveway, vehicle weight will crack the paver eventually.
- A visible dip or wave across the driveway surface. Dips signal base failure below the sand layer, not just missing sand. This is the one symptom that tells us a simple re-leveling will not hold without rebuilding the base under that section.
- Cracks running through individual pavers. If one or two pavers are cracked but the surrounding surface is flat, that’s usually a point-load problem, like a car parked with a jack stand on the same spot. If cracks run in a line across many pavers, the base is moving underneath.
- Weeds or ants pushing sand up between the joints. Ants excavating joint sand is a classic South Florida problem. The fix is re-sanding with polymeric sand after treating the ant colony, but the ants will win again unless the colony is dealt with first.
Replacement Cost & What’s Included
A small Tremron paver repair in Fort Lauderdale, like resetting a 30-square-foot section near a pool deck, typically runs $250 to $700. A larger re-leveling job covering a full driveway lane might land between $800 and $2,500. A complete paver driveway replacement starts around $7,000 and can reach $18,000 depending on square footage, whether we’re pulling out an existing slab, how much new base material is required, and access to the site. Every job we quote includes the written price before any work starts, and that price covers pavers, base material, labor, haul-away of old material, and a written guarantee on the installation.
What drives cost up in Fort Lauderdale specifically: tree roots from mature oaks and ficus, a high water table that demands deeper base compaction, and city permitting when we’re modifying a driveway apron that meets the public right-of-way. We handle permits when they’re required and we’ll tell you before you sign anything whether your project needs one. No surprise invoices, no verbal estimates that grow on the final bill. That’s the Mason Remodeling way, and Isaac Pruett has been running jobs on that principle since 2004.

You can safely re-sand the joints between pavers yourself. You can also safely pull up a single rocker paver, add a little bedding sand, and tap it back down with a rubber mallet. That’s a 20-minute fix that costs about ten dollars in material. What you should not do is attempt a full paver driveway repair without understanding base compaction, drainage slope, and edge restraint. A paver driveway that is not properly edge-restrained will spread at the borders within a year or two, and in Fort Lauderdale’s wet season, a poorly compacted base will settle and re-create the exact same dip you started with.
Paver work is not dangerous in the way garage door springs or electrical panels are dangerous. It’s heavy labor and it’s easy to get wrong in a way that wastes your money. If you want the repair to hold through several hurricane seasons, call us at (754) 354-3720 and we’ll give you a straight answer about what’s really going on under the surface. We tell you what we found, what it takes to fix it, and what it will cost, before we touch a thing.
FAQs
A properly installed Tremron paver driveway in Fort Lauderdale typically lasts 25 to 35 years before the pavers themselves wear out, though the sand joints will need refreshing every 3 to 5 years and the base may need spot repair once or twice in that span depending on drainage. Call (754) 354-3720 and we’ll assess whether your pavers are near the end of their useful life or simply need a base repair, estimates are free.
No, a cracked paver cannot be repaired to original strength, but the good news is that individual pavers can be removed and swapped for new ones without touching the surrounding area. Call (754) 354-3720 for a free estimate on paver replacement, and we’ll tell you upfront whether we can match the color closely enough to make the repair disappear.
A small paver reset or re-sanding job in Fort Lauderdale is usually done in one day, while a full driveway replacement typically takes 3 to 5 working days from tear-out through final compaction and joint sand. Call (754) 354-3720 and we’ll give you a written timeline along with your written price before work begins.
