A Discount Pool & Patio Company
When’s the last time you actually used your patio? That cracked concrete isn’t inviting anyone outside. The sinking pavers create trip hazards that you navigate around. There’s nowhere comfortable to sit, no shade, and honestly, it just feels like wasted space. Meanwhile, you scroll past gorgeous outdoor living areas on Pinterest and think, “Why doesn’t my backyard look like that?”
Here’s the thing: it could. Poolside Renos transforms neglected patios across Broward County into outdoor spaces that feel like extensions of your home. Fresh pavers, travertine, or porcelain. Layouts designed for how you actually live, dining areas, lounging zones, and entertaining spaces. We’ve been creating outdoor living spaces since 1998, so we know what works in South Florida, not just what looks good in magazines.
One family-owned team that genuinely loves turning forgotten patios into places families want to be.
Most patio remodels fail because contractors treat them like any hardscape project instead of designing actual outdoor living spaces. They lay pavers in a basic rectangle without thinking about how you’ll use the space. They skip proper base preparation, so pavers sink and shift. They choose materials based on cost instead of performance in Florida conditions. The result? A technically completed patio that nobody wants to spend time on because it’s not designed for real use.
Three Ways Bad Contractors Ruin Patio Projects
A patio isn’t just a surface. It’s an outdoor room that needs zones for different activities, dining areas, lounging spots, walkways, and space for a grill or fire pit. Contractors without design sense just lay materials in whatever shape is easiest. You end up with a patio that technically exists but doesn’t function well for entertaining, relaxing, or actually living outdoors. Good design makes the difference between a patio you use and one you ignore.
Florida soil, drainage issues, and settlement problems mean patio base preparation is critical. Skip proper excavation, compaction, and drainage, and your beautiful pavers will sink, shift, and create uneven surfaces within a few years. Proper base prep costs money and takes time; contractors trying to underbid the competition skip it to save both. You pay the price when your patio develops low spots, trip hazards, and standing water.
Some materials get dangerously hot in the Florida sun. Others stain easily or don’t hold up to weather and UV exposure. Cheap pavers crack and fade. Certain surfaces become slippery when wet. Contractors who don’t specialize in Florida outdoor spaces use whatever’s available or cheap without understanding long-term performance. Your patio looks okay initially but shows serious problems after one Florida summer.
Here’s what people miss about patios:
They’re not just decoration, they’re where life happens. Birthday parties. Sunday morning coffee. Summer evenings with friends. Your patio should make you want to be outside, not remind you how much your backyard disappoints you. The difference between a patio you love and one you ignore is thoughtful design, quality materials, and proper installation. All three matter equally.
At Poolside Renos, we’ve created thousands of outdoor living spaces across Broward County. We design patios based on how you’ll actually use them, select materials that perform beautifully in Florida, and install everything with the base preparation and attention to detail that ensures decades of use. Your patio will become the space you envisioned, somewhere you’re genuinely excited to spend time.
Tired of a backyard nobody uses?
Step 1: Free Consultation & Lifestyle Discussion
We come out, look at your space, and talk about how you want to use it. Do you entertain a lot? Need dining space? Want a cozy spot for morning coffee? Planning to add an outdoor kitchen? We discuss your vision and lifestyle needs before talking about materials. The design should serve how you live, not just fill space with pavers. This conversation shapes everything that follows.
Step 2: Design Planning & Material Selection
We create a layout that makes sense for your space and lifestyle, zones for different activities, traffic flow that works naturally, and integration with pool areas or landscaping. Then we discuss materials. Travertine that stays cool. Durable porcelain. Classic pavers. You see actual samples and understand how different options look, feel, and perform. We guide you toward choices that match your aesthetic and practical needs.
Step 3: Detailed Written Estimate
You get a comprehensive proposal covering demolition (if needed), excavation, base preparation, drainage, materials, installation, and finishing. Everything’s itemized so you understand where your investment goes. No vague estimates that balloon into surprise costs. If we need to address drainage issues or site challenges, we include them upfront. What we quote is what you pay.
Step 4: Permitting & Realistic Scheduling
We handle any required permits and schedule your project with timelines that make sense. Most patio projects take 1-3 weeks, depending on size and complexity. We’re upfront about timing and work efficiently. We know you want to use your backyard, but we don’t drag projects out unnecessarily.
Step 5: Demolition & Site Preparation
If you have an existing patio, we will remove it and haul everything away. We excavate to the proper depth, assess drainage, and address any site issues that could cause problems later. This prep work isn’t glamorous, but it determines whether your patio lasts three years or thirty. We don’t skip steps that matter.
Step 6: Base Installation & Drainage
We install and compact the base according to specifications for your chosen material. Proper slope for drainage, adequate compaction to prevent settling, and correct depth for stability. For areas with drainage challenges, we install solutions that keep water moving away from your patio. This foundation work is what separates patios that perform from ones that fail.
Step 7: Material Installation
Our crews install your chosen material with attention to pattern, spacing, and visual flow. Pavers get set with proper joint spacing and edge restraints. Natural stone gets sorted for color consistency. Cuts are clean and precise. We work methodically because outdoor living spaces need to look professional; there’s no hiding sloppy work in your backyard.
Step 8: Finishing & Sealing
We install joint sand or polymeric sand to prevent weed growth and keep pavers stable. For natural stone, we apply appropriate sealers to protect against stains and weather. Edge details get finished properly. Transitions to other surfaces flow naturally. Every detail gets attention because these finishing touches affect both appearance and long-term performance.
Step 9: Final Walkthrough & Enjoyment
We walk everything with you, clean up thoroughly, and make sure you’re thrilled with your new outdoor space. We provide care instructions specific to your materials. We don’t consider the job done until you’re excited to invite people over and show off your new patio. That’s the whole point: creating a space you’re proud of and want to use.

We Design Outdoor Living Spaces, Not Just Surfaces
There’s a difference between laying pavers and creating functional outdoor living spaces. We understand how people use patios, what makes spaces inviting, and how to design layouts that work for real life. This design thinking is what separates patios people love from ones that technically exist but never get used.
Family-Owned Since 1998
We’re local owners who’ve been part of Broward County for over 25 years. We genuinely love creating outdoor spaces because we see how much joy they bring families. This isn’t just work to us; it’s helping people reclaim their backyards and create spaces for life to happen. That personal investment shows in the care we take with every project.
Materials Selected for Florida Performance
We recommend materials based on Florida conditions, heat management, weather resistance, slip resistance when wet, and long-term durability. We’ve installed thousands of patios over 25+ years, so we know what performs well and what disappoints. You’re investing in outdoor space that should look great and function well for 20+ years, so we make sure materials deliver on that.
Proper Base Preparation Every Time
Base prep isn’t negotiable. We excavate properly, compact correctly, install drainage solutions, and create foundations that prevent settling, sinking, and water problems. Our patios don’t develop low spots or drainage issues three years down the road because we don’t cut corners on the work that determines long-term performance.
We Focus on Creating Experiences
We work primarily with homeowners in Weston, Boca Raton, Parkland, Coral Springs, and people who want backyards they actually enjoy, not just backyards that exist. A great patio changes how you use your home. It becomes where you have coffee in the morning, where kids play, and where you entertain friends. We’re not just installing pavers, we’re creating the stage for your life to happen outdoors.
Licensed, Insured, Here for the Long Haul
Full licensing, comprehensive insurance, and we’re not going anywhere. We’ve been here 25+ years, and we’ll be here 25+ more. When you have questions about your patio or need advice years from now, we’re still here answering the phone. That reliability and ongoing support matter when you’re investing in permanent outdoor spaces.
