CWS Driveway & Pavers Nationwide

CWS Driveway & Pavers: The Orlando Owner’s Guide

We stock and install CWS-compatible driveway pavers and related replacement parts across Orlando, with most paver driveway installations running between $7,000 and $18,000 depending on square footage, paver line, and site prep. If you’re here because a section of your CWS paver driveway has shifted, cracked, or sunk after a Florida rain cycle, you’re in the right place. The most common call we get starts with a homeowner noticing a low spot collecting water near the garage apron or a paver edge that’s pulling away from the curb.

Which CWS Models This Applies To

CWS pavers are typically laid as interlocking concrete units in modular patterns, and the most common failure isn’t the paver itself, it’s the base layer beneath it. We work with CWS-style interlocking pavers across all common Orlando installations, including driveways, walkways, and patio aprons. The key compatibility factor is paver thickness: most CWS residential driveways in this market use 60mm pavers, while patios and walkways often run 40mm. You can identify your paver thickness by measuring the exposed edge at the driveway’s side, or checking any leftover pallet tags from the original install. For CWS applications specifically, OEM matching matters when the paver color or surface texture has been discontinued, because pulling a section and patching with a slightly different blend is the fastest way to make a repair look worse than the original problem. In those cases we source the closest available match and tell you plainly before ordering whether the blend will be a dead match or a 95% match. We also carry quality aftermarket equivalents when the CWS line is no longer in production, and we’ll show you the sample against your existing driveway before committing.

Signs Your CWS Driveway & Pavers Is Failing

• Low spots that hold water for more than an hour after rain. This tells us the crusher-run base or sand setting bed has washed out underneath, which happens often in Orlando’s sandy soils after repeated afternoon downpours. Water pooling is never just a cosmetic issue because it accelerates base erosion every cycle.
• Pavers rocking or shifting underfoot. A paver that moves when you step on it means the sand joint lock has failed and the base is no longer compacted. Left alone, the movement spreads outward from the first loose stone.
• Edge pavers creeping outward toward the lawn or street. CWS driveways need a solid concrete or plastic edge restraint. When that restraint breaks or was never installed, the outer row starts drifting before the interior sections follow.
• White haze or surface pitting on the paver face. In Orlando’s humidity, efflorescence and surface spalling are common on older CWS pavers. The structural issue is often less urgent than the base problem, but surface degradation tells you the sealer has long since worn off.
• Tree roots lifting a section in a wave pattern. Orlando’s live oaks are aggressive, and roots will find the path of least resistance under a paver base. Once a root lifts pavers, the only lasting fix is removing the section, cutting the root, and compacting a fresh base.

Replacement Cost & What’s Included

A full CWS-style paver driveway replacement in Orlando typically runs $7,000 to $18,000, and the spread comes down to three things: total square footage, how much of the old base needs to be hauled out and rebuilt, and whether you’re matching an existing pattern or starting fresh. A smaller driveway around 400 square feet with decent base material still in place lands on the lower end. A 900-square-foot driveway with a failed base, root damage, and a complex border pattern lands near the top. Every quote we give includes the written price before any work starts, the cost of removing and hauling the old material, new base and bedding sand, the pavers themselves, edge restraint, compaction, and cleanup. That number on day one is the number on the invoice. We back the installation with a written guarantee, and if a repair fails within the guarantee period, our 365-Day Done Right Promise means we come back and fix it at no charge.

DIY or Call Us?

What you can safely do yourself: sweep the joints and top up the polymeric sand when it’s visibly low, clean the surface with a paver-safe cleaner, and keep an eye on where water sits after a storm. What you should not do is start pulling up pavers to inspect the base, because once you break the joint lock and expose the sand bed, the section needs to be recompacted properly or it will settle unevenly within weeks. Paver work looks simple because the pieces are small, but the labor is in the base. A bad base job in Orlando’s sandy, shifting soil is why so many older paver driveways fail in the first place. If you’re seeing movement, water pooling, or edge spread, call us at (850) 427-6454 and we’ll come look at it before you spend a weekend and a wheelbarrow making it worse. Give you the number first, then pick up the tool.
