Restoration Process

Our 3-Step Paver Restoration System

You cannot simply spray sealer on dirty pavers. We follow a strict, multi-day process to ensure the surface is chemically clean and bone dry before applying protective coatings.

01Step

Deep Cleaning & Joint Stripping

Using specialized flat-surface cleaners and hot water, we blast away dirt, mold, and completely blow out the old, failing joint sand.

02Step

Polymeric Sanding

Once dry, we sweep in premium polymeric sand. We vibrate it deep into the joints and activate it with water so it hardens like concrete, blocking weeds.

03Step

Protective Sealing

After the sand cures, we apply a high-quality, breathable sealant that enhances the stone's color and provides a barrier against stains and weather.

Sealer Options

Choosing Your Paver Finish

Sealers do more than protect; they change the aesthetic of the stone. We offer different finishes based on your style preference.

Natural / Matte Finish

Provides invisible protection. Water beads up and stains are blocked, but the paver looks completely natural with no shine or color change.

Color Enhancing (Wet Look)

Deepens the color of the pavers, making them look vibrant and freshly rained on, typically with a satin or glossy sheen.

Efflorescence Removal

If your pavers have a chalky white haze (efflorescence), we must apply a specialized chemical wash to draw out the salts before any sealer is applied.

Weather Dependence

Restoration is highly weather-dependent. The pavers must be completely dry before sanding and sealing, requiring consecutive days of no rain.

Don't Forget the Repairs

Cleaning is the perfect time to address minor structural issues before they become major failures.

  • Lifting and leveling low spots that hold puddles
  • Re-spiking loose plastic edge restraints
  • Replacing cracked or severely stained individual bricks
  • Securing loose steps or wall caps with masonry adhesive

Frequently Asked Questions

Paver Cleaning & Sealing FAQs

How often do my pavers need to be sealed?

In the Buffalo climate, we recommend cleaning and re-sealing every 3 to 5 years to maintain peak protection and color enhancement.

Will polymeric sand stop weeds forever?

No sand stops weeds 100% forever, as dirt blows onto the patio over time. However, a proper polymeric sand installation is the absolute best defense and will prevent 95% of weed and ant issues for years.

Can I just power wash my patio myself?

You can, but consumer power washers often use the wrong tip, damaging the face of the paver. More importantly, if you blast out the joint sand and don't replace it with polymeric sand, your patio will quickly fill with weeds and start sinking.

Why did my previously sealed patio turn white and cloudy?

This happens when cheap sealer is used, or when sealer is applied while moisture is still trapped in the pavers. We use breathable, professional-grade sealers that won't trap moisture and turn hazy.
