Restoration is for pavers that a simple coat can no longer fix: sealer that has gone cloudy or started peeling, joints that have sunk below the edges, color gone chalky. The goal is a surface that looks even, drains and rinses clean the way it did when it was laid. Describe what you see when you send a quick request.

Does my patio need restoration or just a fresh coat?
Walk the pavers and look for four things. If the sealer is peeling, the joints have sunk, pavers rock underfoot or weeds and ants keep coming back, a coat alone will not hold. Dull but level pavers with full joints usually need only cleaning and a new coat. To find out which you have, call (904) 901-6561.
Stallone's Pro Wash gives a simple water test. When water soaks in fast instead of beading, the sealer has worn thin and a recoat is due. Peeling is different, because it means the old coat has to come off before anything new goes on. Show the contractor both spots when you send a quick request.
What is the paver restoration process, step by step?
Strip any failed sealer first
Jax Exterior Cleaning says putting another coat on top of a bad one makes it worse, and Stallone's Pro Wash says peeling sealer is stripped before resealing so the problem is not trapped underneath. Stripping is why a restoration costs more than a reseal. To ask how it is priced, call (904) 901-6561.
Reset sunken or loose pavers
Sunken, shifted or loose pavers can be reset and leveled before sealing, according to Jax Exterior Cleaning. Sealer cannot lift a paver that has dropped, and joint sand will not hold on an uneven surface. Point out any wobble when you send a quick request.
Clean the surface and treat growth
Safe Touch says soft washing kills algae instead of only blasting it away, which keeps it from returning quickly, and Stallone's Pro Wash always washes first because it clears organic growth and stains. Washing too soon after bad weather can leave joints wet, so ask how the schedule is handled when you call (904) 901-6561.
Refill the joints with kiln dried sand
Stallone's Pro Wash uses kiln dried sand that meets ASTM C144 gradation, sweeps it in, compacts it, often with a wet compaction method, and clears the extra off the paver faces. Jax Exterior Cleaning also uses silica sand. To compare sand plans, send a quick request.
Seal on a dry surface
Safe Touch puts sealing last and on a dry surface. Stallone's Pro Wash lets pavers and sand dry for 1 to 2 hours, says damp sand is fine but puddling water is not, and rolls out any standing puddles of sealer for an even finish. Call (904) 901-6561 to hear how a contractor would handle your weather.
What does paver restoration cost in Arlington Hills?
No page read for this town prints a single price for restoration, so the table below is built from pieces that do exist. Stallone's Pro Wash, a Northeast Florida company, starts cleaning at $0.22 per square foot and sealing at $1.90, which adds to $2.12. Safe Touch lists $1.75 to $3.25 for a full clean, sand and seal and says strip and reseal work costs more. To see where your job lands, send a quick request.
Stripping and resetting pavers are the two big add-ons, and neither came with a published rate. Safe Touch calls a restoration with empty joints or failed sealer a two day job, which gives a sense of the labor. Ask for stripping, sand and any resetting to be written as separate lines. To compare quotes, call (904) 901-6561.
| Paved area | Stallone's starting pieces added | Safe Touch clean, sand and seal range |
|---|---|---|
| 400 sq ft, a patio | $848 | $700 to $1,300 |
| 700 sq ft, a driveway | $1,484 | $1,225 to $2,275 |
| 1,200 sq ft, a driveway with a walk | $2,544 | $2,100 to $3,900 |
The middle column adds Stallone's Pro Wash starting prices of $0.22 for cleaning and $1.90 for sealing. The last column multiplies the Safe Touch range. Stripping, resetting pavers and extra sand are not in either column, so a restoration bid should land above them.
When is the right season to restore pavers here?
Safe Touch points to fall as a good window because it tends to be drier. Unilock asks for 24 to 48 hours of clear, dry weather, 50 to 90 degrees and 75 as the sweet spot, and for sprinklers to stay off. Summer afternoons bring heavy rain, which Jax Exterior Cleaning says washes joint sand out and feeds mold. Ask about the weather plan when you call (904) 901-6561.
New pavers are a separate case. Jax Exterior Cleaning says to wait 90 days after installation, and Unilock says efflorescence from salts in the base materials can take two to three months, or up to a year, to fade before sealing. If your pavers are young, give the install date when you send a quick request.
Why do Arlington Hills pavers wear out ahead of schedule?
Jax Exterior Cleaning says Florida's UV, heat and heavy rain accelerate sealer breakdown, and that unsealed pavers are porous and stay damp, so growth returns quickly. Safe Touch adds that full sun and pool chlorine can shorten a coat to about two years. Add the water around ZIP code 32277, about a third of its area, and damp air does the rest. To plan for that, call (904) 901-6561.
Housing age matters too. Many homes in ZIP code 32277 are decades old, and 60.52 percent of its housing units are single-family houses, according to zip-codes.com. A patio laid long ago may have joints that were never topped off since. Tell the contractor when the pavers went in when you send a quick request.
What do restored pavers look like around Arlington Hills?
What do homeowners ask about restoring pavers?
Is it good to seal pavers in Florida?
Yes, when the pavers have been cleaned first and the joints are full. Jax Exterior Cleaning says Florida's UV, heat and heavy rain break sealer down, and Stallone's Pro Wash gives two to five years for Northeast Florida. A coat over dirt or empty joints is the version that fails.
What is the average cost to seal pavers in Florida?
Safe Touch lists $1.75 to $3.25 per square foot for a full clean, sand and seal, and Stallone's Pro Wash starts cleaning at $0.22 and sealing at $1.90. Stripping old sealer comes on top of those numbers, and none of the pages read for this town printed a stripping rate.
How do I know if my pavers need restoration or only a new coat?
Check three things: whether the sealer is peeling, whether the joints sit below the paver edges, and whether any pavers rock when stepped on. A plain reseal handles dull sealer over level pavers. Peeling coats and low joints point to restoration, and rocking pavers need leveling first.
Can I just put new sealer over old sealer?
Not if the old coat has failed. Jax Exterior Cleaning says another coat over a bad one makes it worse, and Stallone's Pro Wash strips peeling sealer before resealing because the problem will otherwise peel again. Unilock also says the old and new products must be compatible.
What does a two day restoration involve?
Safe Touch describes the sequence as cleaning, then re-sanding the joints, then sealing on a dry surface. When joints are empty or the sealer has failed, it calls the work a two day restoration. The break between days lets the surface dry before the coat.
How long should new pavers wait before sealing?
Jax Exterior Cleaning recommends waiting 90 days after installation, and Unilock gives 60 to 90 days. Unilock adds that the white haze called efflorescence can take two to three months and sometimes up to a year to clear, and sealing waits for it.
Why do weeds and ants show up between my pavers?
Weeds and ants usually mean the joint sand has washed out or dropped too low, according to Jax Exterior Cleaning. It says that once joints sit below the surface, pavers lose the support that locks them together. Re-sanding is the repair.
Which sand goes back in the joints?
Two Northeast Florida companies say kiln dried or silica sand, not polymeric sand. Stallone's Pro Wash says polymeric sand needs dry days to cure and can leave a haze, and Jax Exterior Cleaning also uses silica sand. Rain and humidity are the reasons.
How often do restored pavers need resealing?
Plan on two to three years in open sun. Jax Exterior Cleaning says a professional coat lasts 2.5 to 3 years locally, and Safe Touch says two to three. Unilock gives three to five for milder places, so treat that as the outer edge.
Which other paver services can a contractor handle here?
Sealing, cleaning and stain work each have their own page. To talk through a plan, call (904) 901-6561.
