Stone & Pavers
OUTDOOR SURFACES BUILT FOR REAL PROJECTS
Stone and pavers are where outdoor spaces either come together or fall apart.
At Florida Design Works, we approach them as structural design elements, not just surface finishes. These are the materials that define how a space is used, how it holds up over time, and how it connects to the architecture around it.
Across Sarasota, Fort Myers, and Naples, we work with designers, builders, and architects on projects where outdoor surfaces need to perform in real conditions. Full sun, heavy rain, salt air, and constant use are part of the equation here, so every material we recommend is selected with long-term performance in mind.
Whether you are sourcing pavers for outdoor spaces early in design or need reliable stone solutions mid-project, our team works at the pace your build requires.
Transform any backyard into an oasis with our premium stone and paver installation services.
Available Across Florida Design Works Locations
Stone and paver capabilities vary slightly by location, but all three showrooms support exterior surface projects.
Our Sarasota location offers the most complete exterior solution. Projects here often combine stone, pavers, outdoor tile, cabinetry, and other elements into one cohesive design. This is where larger, fully integrated outdoor spaces come together.
Naples is geared toward material sourcing with a more design-driven approach. It is a strong fit for projects that require carefully selected stone and pavers, with support in aligning materials to higher-end finishes and overall design intent.
Fort Myers focuses on material sourcing and design support. It works well for builders and designers who need reliable access to stone and pavers, along with straightforward guidance on selecting the right materials for each project.
An Elegant Touch for Your Project
Adding stones and pavers is one of the best ways to enhance the look and functionality of your outdoor space. Our team has years of experience working with a variety of natural stones and pavers to create stunning patios, walkways, pool decks, and more. We use high-quality materials that are durable and designed to last for decades. That’s why you should contact us for porcelain pavers installation needs.
When it comes to stones and pavers, you have lots of options to choose from. We will help you select the right styles, colors, and textures to match the homeowner’s style and landscape design. With proper installation and care, the new stone and paver surfaces will provide enjoyment for years to come.
Exterior & Pool Tile Integration
Stone and pavers rarely stand alone.
They often connect directly with exterior tile, especially around pools and outdoor living areas.
We help coordinate materials across:
- Pool waterlines and interior finishes
- Pool coping and surrounding decks
- Patio surfaces and outdoor living zones
- Feature walls, fire pits, and outdoor kitchens
Porcelain tile and natural stone are both used here, depending on the look and performance needed. The key is making sure transitions feel clean and materials work together under the same conditions.

Stone & Pavers That Hold Up Over Time
Outdoor surfaces take more abuse than almost any other part of a project.
What you choose here has a direct impact on how the space performs later on.
We usually walk clients through a few solid options, like concrete pavers, porcelain, and natural stone. Each one behaves differently once it is installed, so the right pick depends on how the space will actually be used and what the design is trying to achieve.
Natural stone tends to be the go-to when the goal is a more relaxed, lived-in look. Materials like travertine, limestone, marble, granite, or quartzite bring variation and depth that is hard to replicate with manufactured products. They are often used in patios, pool decks, and feature areas where texture and variation matter.
Porcelain pavers offer a more controlled look with strong durability. They are slip-resistant, fade-resistant, and perform well in high-exposure areas.
Concrete pavers remain a reliable option for driveways, walkways, and structured layouts where consistency and cost control are important.
No matter the material, the goal is the same. Surfaces that look right on day one and still perform years down the line.
Where Stone & Pavers Make the Biggest Impact
Most projects start with one key area, but these materials often carry through the entire outdoor space.
We regularly support designs that include:
1. Driveways and entry paths that set the tone from the moment you arrive
2. Patios and pool decks designed for both durability and comfort
3. Outdoor kitchens and dining areas that connect seamlessly with interior finishes
4. Feature walls, columns, and borders that add structure and definition
5. Steps, transitions, and walkways that guide movement through the space
When these elements are considered together, the result feels intentional instead of pieced together.
