Unilock Construction in Casselberry, FL | Sawyer Remodel Orlando
We install, repair, and replace Unilock paver driveways, patios, and walkways across Casselberry, FL. Our Unilock work here is built around one thing most contractors skip: the high water table and lake drainage that quietly destroy paver bases under older Casselberry homes. That’s the difference between a paver job that looks good for one season and one that survives a decade of summer storms. Call (850) 809-0306 for a free estimate on your Unilock project.
We’re Sawyer Remodel Orlando, part of the Relay Home Co. family since 2005, and we work with Unilock products every week, from Brussels Block to Richcliff. If you need more detail on the full range of what we offer with the brand, see our Unilock sales & service page.
Why Casselberry Residents Choose Us for Unilock Service
Most paver crews in Casselberry know how to lay stone. Fewer know what happens to that stone after three years of afternoon thunderstorms, a rising water table, and a 1982 slab foundation that was never compacted to modern standards. We do, because we’ve pulled up enough failed paver bases in Lake Kathryn and Sausalito to know exactly what’s underneath.
Luca Romano, who runs our crew, picked up his first framing hammer in Los Angeles before he could drive, trained at LA Trade-Technical College, and has spent the better part of two decades putting that foundation to use across Central Florida. He’ll tell you the same thing on every Unilock job: the paver is only as good as what’s under it. We source genuine Unilock pavers and edge restraints for repairs so the pattern and color stay true. For base and drainage work, we use washed concrete sand and crushed limestone, materials that hold up in Casselberry’s wet, subtropical soil better than what the original installers used in 1978.
We’re an independent General Contractor - Casselberry, not a Unilock authorized dealer. That independence means we call out what fails here and fix it honestly, whether that’s re-leveling a sunken patio or rebuilding a driveway base that’s washed into the lake drainage. Every job runs under The Relay Visibility Guarantee: a written price before work starts, live arrival time tracking, and before-and-after photo updates. You’ll know who’s coming and what it costs before a single paver moves.

Common Unilock Construction Problems We Solve in Casselberry
- Settling and heaving from the high water table. This is the big one in Casselberry. When the water table rises after heavy rain, un-compacted sand bases shift. We see Unilock pavers sink 2 to 4 inches in a single wet season when the base wasn’t built to handle the water. We re-excavate, install geotextile fabric, and compact a limestone base that doesn’t wash out.
- Paver edge spalling and surface erosion. Casselberry’s humidity and daily sun cycle are hard on paver edges, especially on driveways with constant tire traffic. When Brussels Block edges start to crumble, we cut out the damaged units and replace them with color-matched genuine Unilock pavers so the repair disappears into the pattern.
- Efflorescence and mold staining between joints. Flat, lake-heavy terrain means water pools on low sections of patios. That trapped moisture pushes white mineral deposits up through the joints and feeds mold growth. We fix this with proper slope grading and drainage channels, not just a pressure wash.
- Fading and color shift on pigmented surfaces. Unilock’s Umbriano and Richcliff lines use color blends that hold up well, but intense UV and storm-driven debris take a toll over years. If you’re adding a new section, we match the original Unilock color family so the old and new blend, even if the existing pavers have faded.
- Base washout near lake drainage. Homes built near Lake Kathryn or the chain of lakes along 436 often have paver bases that literally erode toward the water. The pavers look fine until a corner drops. We find the void, rebuild the base, and re-lay the same pavers. If you’re in the broader area, check our Casselberry service area page.
Unilock Service in Casselberry: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Casselberry sits on a high water table with numerous lakes, and many older homes here have driveways and patios built before modern base compaction standards existed. The original construction in the 1960s through the 1980s rarely included geotextile fabric or adequate crushed-stone base. Instead, many crews laid Unilock pavers directly on a few inches of sand over clay-heavy Florida soil. After a rainy season or two, that sand migrates toward the lake drainage, leaving a void under the pavers. We routinely find Unilock pavers sinking 2 to 4 inches after just one rainy season when the underlying sand has washed out. That’s not a paver problem, it’s a base problem, and it’s the single most common repair we make in Casselberry.
Our crew was called to a 1970s home in the Lake Kathryn area after the homeowner noticed their Unilock Brussels Block paver driveway had developed a 3-inch depression near the garage apron. We pulled up the pavers and found the original sand base had eroded into the nearby lake drainage, leaving a void under the stones. We re-excavated the area, installed a geotextile fabric and compacted limestone base, then re-laid the same pavers with fresh joint sand. Six months later, the driveway is still flat. Good work doesn’t need a speech, it just needs to hold up.
Unilock Models & Products We Service in Casselberry
We work with the full Unilock lineup that’s popular in Casselberry: Brussels Block for classic driveways, Richcliff for a modern dimensional look, Umbriano for a smooth contemporary finish, and Town Hall for a tumbled, old-world feel. When we repair, we source genuine Unilock pavers to match the original pattern and color, and we use matching edge restraints so the repair doesn’t look like a patch. For base and drainage work, we use proven local materials like washed concrete sand and crushed limestone, materials that hold up better in our wet, subtropical soil than OEM accessories. That mix of genuine Unilock on the surface and local-grade materials underneath is what makes a Casselberry repair last.

FAQs – Unilock Construction in Casselberry
Almost always, it’s the base, not the pavers. Casselberry’s high water table and lake drainage erode un-compacted sand bases within one or two rainy seasons. We re-excavate the settled area, install geotextile fabric, and compact a limestone base so the pavers stay put. Call (850) 809-0306 for a free evaluation.
Yes. We source genuine Unilock pavers and match the original color family, accounting for UV fading on your existing surface. The blend won’t be perfect on day one, but within one season of sun exposure it settles into place.
Usually not. Small settlements of an inch or two can be re-leveled by lifting the affected pavers, rebuilding the base in that section, and re-laying the same stones. If the base is washed out across the entire driveway, replacement is the honest call. We’ll tell you which one you actually need.
For Casselberry Bathroom Remodeling and outdoor projects alike, we grade the patio with a slope that moves water toward the existing lake drainage or a perimeter channel, and we use open-graded base material that lets water drain through without washing out. This prevents the pooling that causes efflorescence and mold between joints.
For driveways, we recommend Unilock Brussels Block or Richcliff with a properly compacted limestone base and geotextile fabric. The paver choice matters, but the base and compaction matter more in Casselberry’s wet climate. Call (850) 809-0306 for a quote on your specific driveway.
