What's Included
What's Included With Every Paver Project
Sealer Selection, Preparation & What to Expect
Proper preparation is the most important part of any paver sealing project. Applying sealer over a dirty, contaminated, or improperly sanded surface traps buildup underneath and causes the coating to fail prematurely — sometimes within months. Every Seal Deal project begins with a thorough cleaning and joint evaluation before any sealer is applied.
Sealer finish selection depends on the paver material, the surface location, and your preference. Matte finishes preserve the natural look of the paver with minimal sheen — a good choice for traditional brick or natural stone. Semi-gloss adds a moderate wet look that enhances color without being overly reflective. High-gloss produces the most dramatic wet look and is popular on pool decks and entertainment areas. We use professional products including Cobble-Loc and Ure-Seal, selected based on the specific requirements of each project.
After sealing, avoid washing the surface for at least 24–48 hours and allow full cure time before heavy use. Sealers don't last indefinitely — heavy foot traffic, pool chemicals, and sun exposure all affect longevity. We generally recommend evaluating resealing every 4–5 years, with annual cleaning to keep the surface in good condition between sealing cycles.
Our Process
How It Works
Surface Evaluation
Every project begins with evaluating the surface material, joint condition, and existing sealer.
Pre-Treatment & Clean
We apply a specialized pre-treatment, then clean the surface and joints using our 8 GPM commercial-grade pressure washer and appropriate cleaning methods.
Joint Sand & Prep
For compatible paver systems, we install specialty silica joint sand in eight colors after proper preparation and drying.
Two-Coat Sealing
We typically apply two coats of sealer: a penetrating first coat followed by a second coat to achieve the desired finish. Matte, semi-gloss, and high-gloss finishes available.
Real Project
Real Paver Restoration Project: Cimarrone, St. Johns
We restored a pool patio in Cimarrone, St. Johns, FL, after a previous contractor left the joints severely overfilled and the surface affected by mold and buildup.
Rather than simply adding another coat of sealer, we restarted the restoration process and addressed the existing preparation problems.
Our team cleaned the surface, corrected the problem areas, and restored the patio's appearance.
The homeowner was thrilled with the finished result.
Know Before You Book
What Jacksonville Homeowners Should Know About Paver Sealing
Paver Cleaning vs. Paver Sealing — What's the Difference?
Cleaning removes surface dirt, algae, and organic buildup. Sealing applies a protective coating that helps repel stains, slow weed growth in the joints, and preserve the paver's color and appearance. Cleaning is required before sealing — applying sealer over a dirty or contaminated surface traps the buildup underneath and can cause the coating to fail prematurely.
Why Joint Sand Matters
The sand between paver joints does more than fill gaps. It stabilizes the pavers, reduces movement, and helps resist weed growth and ant activity. Over time, joint sand erodes from rain and pressure washing. We use specialty silica joint sand available in eight colors to match or complement your pavers. Proper joint sand installation is part of our standard process before sealing.
Choosing a Sealer Finish: Matte, Semi-Gloss, or High-Gloss
Matte finishes preserve the natural look of the paver with minimal sheen. Semi-gloss adds a moderate wet look that enhances color without being overly reflective. High-gloss produces the most dramatic wet look and is popular on pool decks and entertainment areas. The right choice depends on the paver material, the surface location, and your personal preference. We'll walk you through the options during the estimate.
Sealer Longevity & Maintenance Expectations
We generally recommend evaluating resealing every 4–5 years. Traffic, sun exposure, pool chemicals, and the type of sealer all affect how long a coating lasts. Sealers don't last forever under every condition — heavy foot traffic areas or surfaces exposed to pool water may show wear sooner. After sealing, avoid washing the surface for at least 24–48 hours and allow full cure time before heavy use.
Paver Maintenance Frequency & Pricing
We generally recommend annual paver cleaning and evaluating joint sanding and resealing approximately every 4–5 years.
Traffic, weather exposure, existing sealer, and material condition may change that schedule.
Typical cleaning, sanding, and sealing projects range from $1.99–$2.99 per square foot. Sealer stripping and extensive restoration may cost more.
We use professional products, including Cobble-Loc and Ure-Seal, based on project requirements.
