Frequently Asked Questions

Is it good to seal pavers in Florida?

Yes, for most pavers that have faded, lost joint sand or started to grow green. Florida soil is sandy, and afternoon thunderstorms are common from late spring to early autumn, so loose sand washes out of joints fast. Sealing helps the sand stay put and makes later rinsing easier. To see whether yours are ready, ask for a free estimate.

How much does it cost to seal pavers in Baldwin?

Plan on about $1.75 to $3.25 per square foot to clean, sand and seal, which is what a Northeast Florida washing company publishes. For a 600 square foot driveway in Baldwin, that works out near $1,050 to $1,950. Stripping a failed coat costs extra. To price your own pavers, call (904) 299-8891.

How often should pavers be sealed in Florida?

Companies in Northeast Florida quote two to five years between coats. Full sun, pool chlorine and heavy rain push toward the short end, and shaded walks last longer. When water soaks in instead of beading, the coat is thin. To have yours checked, call (904) 299-8891.

Does a home in a rural part of Duval County need anything different?

Often, yes. Baldwin is a small town of about 1,400 people, with flatwoods, wetlands and hardwood uplands close by. Leaves and damp shade on pavers are common in country like that, so a contractor should look at where the shade falls before picking a cleaner or a finish. To set up a visit, ask for a free estimate.

How long does a paver sealing job take?

Plan on one to two days. A Northeast Florida washing company says empty joints or a failed coat turn it into a two day restoration, because the surface has to dry between washing and sealing. Wet weather can push the second day back. For a time frame on your own pavers, call (904) 299-8891.

Can the pavers around my pool in Baldwin be sealed?

Yes. One Northeast Florida guide favors a penetrating sealer on pool decks, because a glossy film can trap moisture and turn slick under bare feet. Traction should be part of any finish choice on a pool deck. To have a contractor look at your pool deck, ask for a free estimate.

Is there a downside to sealing pavers?

There are two. Sealing is a repeat cost every few years, and a wet look finish shows scuffs sooner than a matte one. Picking the finish to match how the area is used avoids most regrets. To talk it through, call (904) 299-8891.

How much is paver sealer per square foot?

A Northeast Florida washing company publishes $1.75 to $3.25 per square foot to clean, sand and seal, and that figure covers labor as well as sealer. For a 600 square foot driveway in Baldwin, the range is about $1,050 to $1,950. Repairs and stripping a failed coat usually add to it.
