Paver Cleaning and Sealing Services
Professional Paver Cleaning, Sanding & Sealing
Paver patios, walkways, and driveways are a major investment. Over time, they collect dirt, algae, moss, joint erosion, and staining that not only affect appearance — but also structural stability.
Our Professional 3-Step Process
Deep Cleaning
We use commercial-grade pressure washing and surface cleaners to remove:
- Embedded dirt
- Algae and moss
- Old joint sand
- Efflorescence (white mineral haze)
- Oil and organic stains
Proper cleaning is critical. If contaminants remain, sealing can lock them in permanently. We adjust pressure carefully to avoid etching or loosening the paver surface.
Joint Sanding (Polymeric Sand Installation)
After cleaning and full drying, we install professional-grade polymeric sand between the joints.
Why Joint Sanding Is So Important? Polymeric sand:
- Prevents weed growth
- Reduces insect intrusion
- Stabilizes pavers
- Minimizes shifting and movement
- Improves drainage control
When properly installed and activated with water, polymeric sand hardens to form a flexible, durable joint.
Sealing
Once the surface is clean and joints are properly set, we apply a professional paver sealer. Sealing protects your investment by:
- Protecting color
- Preventing staining
- Enhancing appearance
- Reducing surface erosion
- Slowing UV fading
- Making future cleaning easier
Sealing also helps lock joint sand in place for longer durability.
Important Industry Knowledge for Homeowners
Not All Sealers Are the Same. There are two primary types of sealers:
- Film-forming sealers – Sit on top of the surface and enhance shine
- Penetrating sealers – Absorb into the paver and protect from within
The right choice depends on:
- Paver material
- Desired finish
- Traffic level
- Drainage conditions
We help homeowners choose the best option for their specific surface.
Drainage & Base Condition Matter
If pavers are shifting significantly, sealing alone will not fix base failure. In those cases, lifting and re-leveling may be recommended before sanding and sealing. Our process evaluates surface stability before proceeding.
Efflorescence
White haze on pavers (efflorescence) is caused by mineral salts rising to the surface. Specialized treatments may be required prior to sealing to prevent trapping it beneath the sealer.
Finish Options
We offer finishes tailored to homeowner preference:
- Natural Matte – Clean and protected, minimal shine
- Wet Look – Enhanced color, richer appearance
- High Gloss Shine – Bold, vibrant finish
Each option provides long-lasting protection customized to your aesthetic goals.
How Long Does Sealing Last?
Typically:
- 2–3 years for high-traffic areas
- 3–5 years for patios and lower-traffic spaces
Longevity depends on:
- Sun exposure
- Drainage
- Traffic level
- Climate conditions
Maintenance cleaning extends performance.
Benefits of Professional Paver Restoration
- Restores curb appeal
- Prevents costly reset projects
- Reduces weed growth
- Protects against oil and rust stains
- Extends surface lifespan
- Enhances property value
Proper sanding and sealing protects both the beauty and structural integrity of your hardscape.
Professional Hardscape Power Washing
Hardscape surfaces collect dirt, algae, and stains that make patios, walkways, and driveways look worn and slippery. Our power washing safely restores their natural appearance.
- Paver Cleaning – Removes dirt, algae, and buildup from patios and walkways
- Natural Stone Cleaning – Safely cleans flagstone, bluestone, and other stone surfaces
Our approach depends on:
- Hardscape material
- Type of staining
- Surface condition
- Surrounding landscaping
Professional cleaning restores the color and beauty of your hardscape surfaces.
Over time, pavers lose their color and stability as dirt builds up and joint sand washes away. Our professional cleaning, re-sanding, and sealing process restores appearance and helps protect your surfaces.
