Why Seal Your Pavers?
Pavers are exposed to Florida weather 365 days a year.
Intense sunlight, heavy rain, high humidity, irrigation, vehicle traffic, foot traffic, and organic growth can gradually change their appearance. Joint sand can also wash away or deteriorate over time.
Professional paver sealing adds a protective layer to the surface and can provide several important benefits.
Helps Protect Your Pavers
Paver sealer creates a barrier between the paver surface and the elements, helping protect against everyday exposure and wear.
Enhances the Appearance of Your Pavers
Depending on the type of sealer selected, sealing can enhance the natural color and overall appearance of pavers, helping faded or dull surfaces look refreshed.
Helps Stabilize Joint Sand
Proper sanding and sealing can help keep sand in the joints between pavers, improving stability and reducing sand loss from rain and normal use.
Makes Routine Maintenance Easier
A properly sealed paver surface can be easier to maintain and clean than an unsealed, porous surface.
Helps Protect Against Staining
Sealing can make pavers less susceptible to absorbing certain spills, dirt, and contaminants. It won’t make pavers completely stain-proof, but it can provide an additional layer of protection.
Paver Cleaning Before Sealing
Proper paver sealing starts with proper preparation.
Applying sealer over dirty pavers can trap stains, algae, dirt, and discoloration underneath the new coating. That’s why cleaning is such an important part of the paver sealing process.
Before sealing, we thoroughly clean the paver surface to remove accumulated dirt, grime, algae, mold, mildew, and other organic buildup.
We also inspect the existing condition of the pavers and joints.
Once cleaned, the pavers need adequate time to dry before the sealing process can move forward. Florida weather and the condition of the surface can affect drying time, so we don’t rush this important step.
Paver Sanding & Joint Stabilization
The joints between your pavers are an important part of the overall system.
Over time, joint sand can wash away because of heavy Florida rain, pressure cleaning, drainage, traffic, and normal weathering. When appropriate, fresh sand can be added to the joints before sealing.
Properly filled joints can help:
- Stabilize individual pavers
- Reduce movement
- Improve the finished appearance
- Replace sand lost over time
- Support the overall integrity of the paver surface
We evaluate the existing joint condition as part of the process rather than assuming every paver surface needs exactly the same treatment.
Our Paver Cleaning & Sealing Process
Good paver sealing is about much more than simply applying a coat of sealer.
1. Inspect the Pavers
We evaluate the paver surface, existing sealer, joint condition, staining, organic growth, drainage, and other factors that could affect the finished result.
2. Professionally Clean the Surface
The pavers are thoroughly cleaned to remove dirt, algae, mildew, grime, and other buildup.
3. Allow the Pavers to Dry
Sealer should not simply be applied to a wet surface. We allow appropriate drying time based on the surface and weather conditions.
4. Address the Paver Joints
When needed, joint sand is replenished and prepared before sealing.
5. Apply the Paver Sealer
We professionally apply the appropriate sealer to create a consistent finish across the paver surface.
6. Allow the Sealer to Cure
The newly sealed area needs adequate curing time before returning to normal use. We’ll explain when you can safely walk or drive on the surface based on the products used and conditions at the property.
Paver Driveway Sealing
Your driveway is one of the largest and most visible hardscape surfaces on your property.
Paver driveways also have to withstand vehicle traffic, tires, automotive fluids, Florida sunshine, rain, irrigation, and daily exposure to the elements.
Our paver driveway cleaning and sealing services help homeowners maintain the appearance of their driveways while providing an additional layer of surface protection.
We clean the driveway thoroughly, address the joints as needed, and professionally apply sealer for a more consistent finished appearance.
Pool Deck & Patio Paver Sealing
Paver sealing isn’t just for driveways.
We also clean and seal paver pool decks, patios, lanais, walkways, and outdoor living spaces throughout Lakewood Ranch and Wellen Park.
These surfaces face their own challenges, including constant moisture, pool water, landscaping, foot traffic, outdoor furniture, and Florida weather.
Professional cleaning and sealing can help keep these highly visible outdoor areas looking clean and well maintained.
Does Your Existing Paver Sealer Need to Be Replaced?
Paver sealer doesn’t last forever.
Sun exposure, rain, traffic, cleaning, and normal weathering gradually wear down an existing sealer. Eventually, previously sealed pavers may need to be cleaned and resealed.
Signs that it may be time to have your pavers evaluated include:
- Pavers beginning to look faded or dull
- Uneven appearance across the surface
- Visible deterioration of the existing sealer
- Joint sand disappearing
- Water absorbing into the pavers differently than it once did
- Several years since the last sealing
- Heavy dirt or organic buildup
Existing sealer can also affect how a new sealer should be applied. We’ll inspect the surface before recommending the appropriate process.
How Often Should Pavers Be Sealed in Florida?
There isn’t a single schedule that is right for every paver surface.
How long paver sealer lasts can depend on the type of sealer, amount of sunlight, vehicle or foot traffic, drainage, weather exposure, cleaning methods, and condition of the pavers.
A heavily used driveway exposed to full Florida sun may weather differently than a covered patio.
Instead of resealing based solely on the calendar, have the existing surface evaluated to determine whether it is ready for another application.

Paver Cleaning & Sealing FAQs
What are the benefits of sealing pavers in Florida?
Paver sealing can help protect the surface from Florida’s weather and everyday use, enhance the appearance of the pavers, help stabilize joint sand, reduce absorption of some stains and contaminants, and make routine maintenance easier.
Should pavers be cleaned before they are sealed?
Yes. Pavers should be properly cleaned and prepared before sealing. Applying sealer over dirt, algae, grime, or other contaminants can affect the appearance and performance of the finished surface.
Do pavers need to be dry before sealing?
Yes. Proper drying is an important part of the preparation process. The amount of drying time required can vary depending on the weather, paver material, moisture, drainage, and products being used.
Do you add sand between the pavers before sealing?
When the joints require additional sand, sanding can be incorporated into the preparation process before sealing. We inspect the existing joint condition to determine what is appropriate for the surface.
Can old pavers be cleaned and resealed?
In many cases, yes. Older pavers can often be professionally cleaned, prepared, sanded as needed, and resealed. However, the condition and type of any existing sealer need to be evaluated first.
