Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to seal pavers in Florida?

A St. Augustine paver company publishes about $1.50 to $3.25 per square foot to clean and seal, and says most local jobs land between $500 and $3,000. At that rate a 600 square foot Anastasia Island driveway comes to roughly $900 to $1,950. Heavy mildew, rust stains or failed old sealer push a job toward the high end.

How often do you need to reseal pavers in Florida?

Unilock, a paver maker, says to reseal every three to five years. A St. Augustine paver company says to plan on every two to three years near the Matanzas River or the bayfront, and about every four years elsewhere. If you are not sure when yours were last done, call (904) 274-8546.

Is it good to seal pavers in Florida?

Yes, when the pavers have faded, gone green or lost joint sand. Unilock says sealer can deepen color, limit fading from strong sun and make a surface easier to sweep and wash. The cost is a fresh coat every few years. To find out whether yours are ready, ask for a free estimate.

What does salt air do to pavers on Anastasia Island?

Nicolock, a paver maker, says airborne salt can crystallize on a surface as moisture dries and may wear lower density pavers over time. It adds that light colors show sand and salt residue sooner. Ask the contractor how they handle salt before a coat goes on. For a visit, call (904) 274-8546.

Does a sealed driveway still need washing on Anastasia Island?

Yes, but the job gets easier. Nicolock says an occasional rinse clears salt and sand in coastal areas, and Unilock says a sealed surface is easier to sweep and wash. A St. Augustine paver company suggests a light cleaning once a year. To set up a visit, ask for a free estimate.

Why is paver sealing so expensive?

Most of the price is prep, not sealer. A St. Augustine paver company says heavy mildew, rust marks, failed old film and empty joints push a job to the high end, and a full job runs two to four days, mostly drying. Its published range is about $1.50 to $3.25 per square foot.

How much is paver sealing in Florida?

A St. Augustine paver company publishes about $1.50 to $3.25 per square foot to clean and seal, and says most local jobs land between $500 and $3,000. A 1,000 square foot Anastasia Island pool deck would come to roughly $1,500 to $3,250 at that rate.

How long does sealer last on pavers in Florida?

Unilock, a paver maker, says three to five years, and its notes put a solvent-based coat at four to five with good care. A St. Augustine paver company says two to three years near the Matanzas River or the bayfront and about four elsewhere. The next coat is due when water stops beading.
