Frequently Asked Questions

Is it good to seal pavers in Florida?

Usually yes, when pavers have faded, thinned out at the joints or picked up green patches. One Northeast Florida washing company notes that the region's climate is humid subtropical and that heavy summer rain pulls sand from between pavers. Sealed pavers keep that sand better and take less effort to rinse. To find out whether yours qualify, request a free estimate.

What is the average cost to seal pavers in Florida?

Companies across Northeast Florida post figures from about $1.75 to $3.25 per square foot for cleaning, sanding and sealing together. A 600 square foot Macclenny driveway would land between roughly $1,050 and $1,950 at those rates. Removing a failed older coat is billed separately. To price your own driveway, call (904) 590-4776.

How much should I pay for paver sealing?

Stay close to the posted range of $1.75 to $3.25 per square foot. A published price guide covering this region cautions that anything under $1 almost always leaves out prep, which is the usual reason a coat peels early.

Do I need a license to install pavers in Florida?

The answer depends on the work, and installing or relaying pavers is a different trade from washing and sealing them. Ask any company which Florida license covers the exact job. The state's Department of Business and Professional Regulation runs a free license search at myfloridalicense.com. To start comparing companies, request a free estimate.

How often should pavers be sealed in Florida?

Plan on every two to five years. A Northeast Florida washing company puts a typical gap at two to three years and says full sun and storms shorten it. If a splash of water sinks in and darkens the surface, the coat is thin. To get your pavers checked, call (904) 590-4776.

Do I need HOA approval to seal pavers in Macclenny?

Only if your home belongs to an association, and then it is worth asking. Rules about visible front-yard changes vary by community. Going from natural matte to a glossy wet look is the kind of change a board may want to see on paper first. To discuss finish options, request a free estimate.

How long does it take to seal pavers in Macclenny?

Count on a day or two. A Northeast Florida washing company says a driveway with empty joints or a worn-out coat needs two days, because the pavers have to dry between washing and sealing. A thunderstorm can bump the second day. For a schedule that matches your pavers, call (904) 590-4776.

Will pine pollen ruin newly sealed pavers near Macclenny?

It will not ruin them, though it can dust them yellow. Pine trees cause most of the spring film that settles on outdoor surfaces, and around Northeast Florida the worst of it runs three to five weeks. A sealed paver rinses off more easily than a bare one. To plan a job around that stretch, request a free estimate.
