Frequently Asked Questions

Is it good to seal pavers in Florida?

Yes, once pavers have faded, started losing joint sand or gone green. Safe Touch, a washing company, says storms pull sand out of pool decks and driveways in this humid subtropical county, and a sealed surface holds that sand better. It also rinses clean with less effort. To see if yours are ready, send a quick request.

What is the average cost to seal pavers in Florida?

Safe Touch lists $1.75 to $3.25 per square foot for a full clean, sand and seal. Run that against a 600 square foot driveway and you land between $1,050 and $1,950. Stripping old sealer or replacing joint sand adds to it. Call (904) 901-6561 for a figure that fits your own house.

How much does it cost to seal outdoor pavers?

Size moves the rate more than anything. A Northeast Florida price guide lists $2.50 to $3.25 per square foot under 300 square feet and $1.35 to $2.25 for areas of 1,200 to 2,000 square feet, since larger jobs spread the setup time. Brick and natural stone run 15 to 30 percent more. To get a figure for your property, send a quick request.

How often should I reseal pavers in Arlington Hills?

Plan on every two to five years, and expect the short end near the water. A paver company that works the neighborhoods between the Intracoastal Waterway and the river says salt air and sun wear color and sealer down faster there than farther inland. Water that soaks in instead of beading is the sign to recoat. To have your coat checked, call (904) 901-6561.

Can I ask for a paver sealing estimate if I rent my home in Arlington Hills?

Yes, but get the owner's okay before any work is booked. About half of the occupied homes in ZIP code 32277 are rented, according to zip-codes.com, so this comes up often. The owner may also want a say in the finish. When that is settled, send a quick request.

Will a rainy week in Arlington Hills delay paver sealing?

It can. Unilock, a paver manufacturer, asks for 24 to 48 hours of clear skies around the job, and a surface that is still damp has to wait. Summer storms are the usual cause of a moved date. A contractor can tell you how they handle it when you call (904) 901-6561.

How much is paver sealing per square foot?

Safe Touch prices a full clean, sand and seal at $1.75 to $3.25 per square foot. On a 600 square foot driveway in Arlington Hills, that is roughly $1,050 to $1,950. Stripping old sealer and replacing joint sand are priced on top.

How long do paver sealers last?

Two to five years is the span Stallone's Pro Wash gives for Northeast Florida, and Safe Touch calls two to three years typical. Open sun, pool chlorine and heavy storms all shorten the life of a coat. Shaded walks near the long end.
