How long does paver sealing last?
Resealing timing depends on traffic, direct sun, drainage, prior coatings, cleaning chemicals, and maintenance. We evaluate the surface before recommending a schedule. For completed paver sealing work, our two-year workmanship warranty starts on the completion date shown on your invoice. It covers sealing-application defects caused directly by our workmanship—not normal wear, product issues, pre-existing conditions, weather, improper maintenance, or third-party damage.
What is the paver restoration process?
The process starts with an on-site surface evaluation. Depending on the condition, it can include deep cleaning, addressing visible stains or efflorescence, replacing joint sand where needed, allowing enough drying time, and applying a professional-grade UV-rated sealer. Previously sealed, cloudy, or peeling pavers may need a different restoration approach.
Do you offer a workmanship warranty?
Yes. For completed paver sealing work, our two-year workmanship warranty starts on the completion date shown on your invoice. It covers sealing-application defects caused directly by our workmanship—not normal wear, product issues, pre-existing conditions, weather, improper maintenance, or third-party damage. Ask us how the coverage applies to your specific project.
What types of sealers do you use?
We use professional-grade, UV-rated sealers selected for Florida conditions. Finish options can include wet-look, high-gloss, satin, and more natural appearances. The right product and finish depend on the paver type, prior coating, condition, drainage, and the look you want.
Can you reseal a paver pool deck?
Yes, when the pool-deck surface is a suitable candidate. We first evaluate the existing coating, moisture, white haze or peeling, drainage, joint-sand condition, and the surrounding pool area. Preparation and cure-time instructions are discussed before a finish is selected.
What is efflorescence on pavers?
Efflorescence is a white or chalky mineral deposit that can appear on masonry and pavers as moisture moves salts to the surface. It should be evaluated and addressed before sealing so the visible condition is not simply covered by a new coating.
Does paver sealing stop weeds and ants?
Fresh joint sand and sealer can help stabilize joints and reduce sand washout, weed growth, and ant activity. It is not a permanent barrier and cannot correct drainage, shifting pavers, or every future source of growth.
Do you offer concrete sealing?
Yes, we offer concrete sealing where the surface is a suitable candidate. Cleaning, stains, moisture, existing coatings, and surface condition are evaluated first so we can explain whether sealing or cleaning alone is the better option.
What is the difference between pressure washing and soft washing?
Pressure is selected for the material. Durable flatwork such as many concrete driveways may use controlled pressure, while roofs, siding, painted surfaces, and other delicate materials generally need a lower-pressure soft-wash process and appropriate cleaning solution.
Can you remove oil stains from pavers?
We can evaluate and treat many oil, rust, irrigation, and organic stains. Results depend on the substance, how long it has been present, prior coatings, and how deeply it has penetrated, so complete removal cannot be promised before inspection.
How often should I have my pavers cleaned?
Many properties benefit from professional cleaning every 1-2 years, but shaded areas, heavy traffic, pool environments, drainage, and organic growth can change the timing.
Do you offer commercial services?
Yes, we provide residential and commercial paver sealing and pressure washing, including evaluations for larger properties, HOA common areas, and multi-unit residential surfaces.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept cash, check, and major credit cards. Payment is due upon completion unless other arrangements are made in advance.
How do I prepare for paver sealing?
Before the appointment, remove movable furniture, planters, and decorations from the work area when possible. We will review surface preparation, surrounding areas, drying needs, and cure-time instructions for the specific project.
