Who you are hiring

A family business, run by the people on the job

I'm Lili Mello, owner of The Brick Solution and a mother of four. We are a family, and we build for families: driveways the kids ride bikes on, patios where everyone gathers, and pool decks that get used every weekend. When you call, you get me, and you get a straight answer.

The Brick Solution is a family-owned paver company based in Bradenton. We build driveways, entryways, walkways, patios and pool decks to last. That means a compacted base that carries the weight of your truck, water draining where it should, and edges that stay locked in place. You get a written estimate, a clear schedule, and no surprises. From the first visit to the last paver, you know who is doing the work, what it includes, and when it will be done.

How it goes

You will know what is happening at each stage

Three stages, and we tell you which one you are in.

On-site estimate

We come to you, measure, look at what is there now, and find out where the water goes. You get a written estimate that lists the material, the work, and what is not included.

Installation

Removal and haul-off, excavation to stable ground, a compacted base, then the bedding layer and the paver. Edge restraint on the open edges, polymeric sand in the joints, and the site cleaned down at the end.

Sealing and care

Cleaning, re-sanding the joints, and sealing when the surface is ready for it. This is the part that decides whether you are maintaining a deck in a few years or rebuilding one.
