Paver Cost in Fort Myers
The Real 2026 Numbers
$8/sq ft installed · $9 complex layouts · +$1 removal
Fort Myers is a 20–30 minute run from our Cape Coral yard, and we quote it at the same published rate as everywhere else: $8 per square foot installed, $9 complex, +$1 removal. Here's what that means for a McGregor driveway or a Gateway pool deck.
What Pavers Actually Cost in Fort Myers (2026)
Paver pricing in Fort Myers gets quoted all over the map — partly because the market really is split. A 1960s McGregor-corridor ranch with a cracked original drive is a different job than a new-build patio in Gateway with an HOA design committee. Same published rate either way; what changes is the scope, and we put every piece of it in writing.
The rate: $8 per square foot installed for standard patterns, $9 for complex layouts, +$1 per square foot to demo and haul the old surface. Travertine and porcelain upgrades itemized separately. $2,500 project minimum.

Paver Driveway Cost in Fort Myers
Fort Myers driveways skew bigger than Cape Coral's — long McGregor setbacks and double-wide suburban drives are common. Most of our work here is full slab replacement rather than new construction.

Paver Pool Deck Cost in Fort Myers
Pool decks in south Fort Myers gated communities are where travertine dominates — cooler underfoot in July and it passes every ARB we've submitted to. Deck drainage is engineered away from the pool shell and the lanai slab.

Paver Patio Cost in Fort Myers
Backyard patios on unincorporated Lee County lots usually skip permitting entirely, which makes them quick wins — design, 2–3 build days, done. HOA neighborhoods add an approval step we paper for you.
Just above our $2,500 project minimum — smaller patios still quote at $2,500.
Two Permit Desks in One Town — We Sort Out Which
"Fort Myers" addresses split between the City of Fort Myers (downtown, the McGregor corridor, the river neighborhoods) and unincorporated Lee County (Iona, San Carlos Park, Gateway, much of south Fort Myers). Driveway and right-of-way work goes through whichever authority your parcel sits in, and they don't share paperwork. We check your parcel, file with the right desk, and meet the inspector — included in the job.
In the gated communities off Daniels and Treeline, the HOA architectural review usually matters more than the county permit. The free 3D design we produce for qualifying projects doubles as your ARB submittal exhibit.
What Fort Myers Lots Do to a Paver Price
The McGregor corridor's mid-century homes mostly still have their original concrete drives — cracked, settled, and stained after 50+ years. That's classic tear-out-and-replace work: +$1/sq ft removal, then a base built to handle the root systems of the mature oaks and royal palms that make those streets worth living on. We route base excavation around structural roots instead of chopping through them.
Newer south Fort Myers and Gateway builds are the opposite: clean slate, HOA palettes, and large-format contemporary pavers. Near the historic districts, brick-look and antiqued cobble styles keep the streetscape honest. Same $8 rate covers all of them; pattern complexity is the only thing that moves it to $9.
Fort Myers Paver Cost Questions
How much does a paver driveway cost in Fort Myers?
At our published rate, an 800 sq ft driveway is $6,400 installed standard-pattern, or $7,200 including demo and haul-away of the old concrete slab. Complex patterns run $9/sq ft. The permit — city or county depending on your parcel — is handled by us.
Do I pull a City of Fort Myers or Lee County permit?
Depends where your parcel sits: City of Fort Myers covers downtown and the McGregor/river corridor, while Iona, San Carlos Park, Gateway, and most of south Fort Myers are unincorporated Lee County. We verify your jurisdiction and file with the correct desk as part of every driveway job.
Can you install pavers around mature oak roots on McGregor?
Yes — it's some of our most careful work. We route base excavation around structural roots, use root-tolerant edge restraint layouts, and accept that a paver field can be lifted and reset when a root eventually moves it. That repairability is exactly why pavers beat re-pouring concrete under big trees.
Do you serve all of Fort Myers from Cape Coral?
Yes — our crew is based in Cape Coral, 20–30 minutes from most Fort Myers addresses via the Midpoint or Cape Coral bridges. Fort Myers, Iona, San Carlos Park, and Gateway are all inside our core service area, with free on-site quotes.
