Paver Cleaning & Sealing · Jacksonville, FL
Paver Cleaning & Sealing in Jacksonville, FL
Paver driveways, patios and pool decks look great until moss, weeds and fading set in. We clean them, refill the joints and seal them the right way.
Why pavers need more care than plain concrete
Pavers sit on sand and are held together by sand in the joints. Strong pressure can blow that sand out. Moss and weeds grow in the gaps, and sun and rain fade the color. The right job protects the joints as well as the surface.
The four steps
- Clean the surface and joints with the right method
- Dry fully. Sealer and joint sand need dry pavers
- Re-sand the joints so the pavers lock together again
- Seal to protect color and slow stains and weeds
White haze: efflorescence or sealer trouble?
Efflorescence is a white powder from minerals in the paver or base that rises to the surface. A cloudy or peeling look can also come from old sealer that trapped moisture. They look alike but need different fixes, so we check before we treat.
Common paver problems
| What you see | Likely cause | What helps |
|---|---|---|
| Green or black growth | Algae and moss in damp shade | Cleaning and treatment |
| Weeds in the joints | Sand washed out, seeds landing | Clean out, re-sand, seal |
| Faded color | Sun and age | Clean, then seal to bring color back |
| Sunken or uneven pavers | Base has shifted | Needs a paver repair. Washing will not fix it |
To seal or not to seal
Sealer can slow stains, hold joint sand and deepen the color. It also needs redoing every few years. On pool decks, ask for a slip-resistant finish. In Jacksonville humidity and afternoon storms, we plan around a dry stretch of weather.
FAQ
Questions We Get About This
Can pavers be sealed right after cleaning?
Only once they are fully dry. That can take longer in our humidity. We follow the sealer maker instructions.
Will washing remove the joint sand?
Strong pressure can. That is why we control the pressure and re-sand after.
How long does sealer last?
It depends on the product, sun and traffic. Plan on redoing it every few years.
Do I have to seal?
No. Cleaning alone helps a lot. Sealing is extra protection.
