Professional Paver Sealing
Why Paver Seal
Paver sealing is essential for protecting and enhancing the durability and appearance of your outdoor spaces. Over time, pavers are exposed to harsh elements like UV rays, heavy rain, staining, and wear from foot or vehicle traffic. Sealing your pavers creates a protective barrier that prevents fading, discoloration, and damage caused by water absorption or oil stains. It also helps to stabilize the sand between pavers, reducing weed growth and preventing shifting or settling. Additionally, a quality paver sealant enhances the natural colors of your pavers, giving them a fresh, vibrant look that boosts your property’s curb appeal. Whether you're maintaining a patio, driveway, or walkway, sealing your pavers is a smart investment that ensures their longevity and keeps them looking their best for years to come.
First Steps of Paver Sealing
The first steps are critical to ensuring a long-lasting and effective seal. Atlantic Exteriors starts by thoroughly cleaning the pavers to remove dirt, debris, moss, and any stains. We use a professional-grade pressure washer or a specialized paver cleaner solution for the best results. Once clean, the pavers are carefully inspected for any damaged pavers or missing joint sand to stabilize the surface. We allow the pavers to dry completely, as moisture can interfere with the sealing process. Typically, drying takes 24 to 48 hours, depending on the weather. Once the surface is clean, dry, and stable, you’re ready to apply the sealer evenly using a sprayer, roller, or brush.
Paver Sealer Sand
Paver sealing sand is an essential component for maintaining the beauty and longevity of your paved surfaces. Specifically designed to fill the gaps between pavers, this specialized sand not only enhances the appearance of your walkways, patios, and driveways but also provides critical stability and protection. It helps prevent shifting, cracking, and the growth of weeds, moss, or grass in the joints. Additionally, when used in conjunction with a quality paver sealer, paver sealing sand provides an extra layer of protection against water damage, staining, and erosion. Whether you're upgrading your outdoor aesthetics or preserving an existing space, paver sealing sand is a cost-effective and reliable solution to ensure your paved areas stay durable and visually appealing for years to come.
Final Steps
Completing the process of paver sealing is essential to ensure long-lasting protection and a polished look for your outdoor surfaces. After preparing and cleaning the area thoroughly, the final steps focus on applying the sealer correctly and allowing it to cure. First, we ensure the pavers are completely dry, as moisture can interfere with the sealer’s adhesion. Atlantic Exteriors uses a high-quality sealer suitable for your paver material, applying it evenly with a sprayer, roller, or brush. We work in manageable sections to avoid overlap marks and ensure consistent coverage. After the first coat dries, a second coat is added for durability and shine. Once applied, keep the area free from foot traffic, vehicles, or water exposure for at least 24 to 48 hours, depending on the sealer type. This curing period is vital to achieving optimal results. By following these final steps carefully, you’ll enhance the beauty and longevity of your pavers, ensuring they remain protected against wear, stains, and environmental damage.
