Pick the job that sounds like yours
Five servicesIf two of them sound like yours, that is normal. Say so on the walkthrough and the written scope covers both under one price.
What a driveway costs in Tampa, FL
Three things move a driveway from one range to the next, and they are the same three every time. The cost page has the Tampa market range and its source. Your number comes after the walkthrough.
Concrete driveway replacement
The old slab comes out and the base gets rebuilt before a drop of concrete is poured. Joints are cut where the slab will crack anyway. The apron in the right of way gets its permit first. That order is the whole job.
Paver driveway installation
A paver driveway is a base with stones on top. Six inches of compacted crushed stone, an edge that holds the outside row, and joints filled with sand that hardens. The pavers can be lifted and reset for decades if that base is right.
Driveway repair and resurfacing
Some slabs are sound and only look tired. Some are done and only look sound. Repair is the job of telling them apart first. Cracks get sealed, sunken sections get lifted, and the cause gets fixed. We say no to coatings over a slab that is still moving.
Walkway and sidewalk repair
A quarter inch edge is a trip and a lawsuit. The front walk is yours and gets fixed in a morning. The sidewalk at the street is the county's, needs a permit, and gets poured to the public standard. We replace the bad squares and leave the sound ones.

Most driveways are one of these 5 cases. Read the line that sounds like your house. The page it points to is the one to open first. On every one of them, the base and the drainage are ours. Anything in the public right of way gets its permit from the county before we cut. Maplex Services is not a general contractor. Electrical, AC and plumbing are done by a licensed general contractor we work with.
The slab is cracked in pieces and lifts at the joints
That is a concrete driveway replacement. Once a slab has broken into sections that move, a patch is money on a problem that keeps growing. The old slab comes out and the base gets rebuilt. New concrete goes in, with joints cut where it will crack anyway.
You want the look, and you want to be able to fix it later
A paver driveway. Pavers sit on a compacted base and can be lifted and reset one at a time. The cost is in the base and the edge, not in the paver. If the base is done right, the surface lasts for decades.
1 or 2 cracks, a sunken corner, a stained surface
Start with driveway repair and resurfacing. Some slabs are sound and only look tired. Some are done and only look sound. The walkthrough tells you which. We say no to resurfacing when the slab underneath is moving.
The problem is the path, the steps or the public sidewalk
That is walkway and sidewalk repair. A trip edge is a small job with a real risk behind it. The public sidewalk in front of your house has its own rules and its own permit. Your front walk does not.
