Frequently Asked Questions

Is it good to seal pavers in Florida?

Yes, for pavers that have faded, lost joint sand or started to grow a green film. Family Handyman says sealing needs repeating only every three to five years and helps prevent stains while protecting color. A Jacksonville company that seals pavers lists weeds and ants returning as a sign a coat is failing. To see whether yours are ready, request your free estimate.

What is the average cost to seal pavers in Florida?

Around Jacksonville, published prices run about $1.75 to $3.25 per square foot for the full clean, sand and seal. That puts a 600 square foot driveway at about $1,050 to $1,950. A 2026 Jacksonville price guide says stripping failed sealer adds $0.75 to $1.50 per square foot. For a number on your own home, call (904) 830-5386.

How long does paver sealing last in Florida?

Most coats last two to five years. A Jacksonville company that uses Trident sealer gives that range for Northeast Florida and says sun, traffic and prep decide where a job lands. Water that soaks in instead of beading up is the sign a coat is worn. To have yours checked, call (904) 830-5386.

What are the downsides of sealing pavers?

The main one is that sealing repeats every few years. A glossy film can also feel slick on a wet pool deck, and sealer put on damp pavers can turn hazy. A dry day and a product suited to each area avoid most of that. To talk through the trade-offs, request your free estimate.

Is it too late to seal pavers that are 15 or 20 years old?

Age alone does not rule it out. Oakleaf Plantation dates to 2002, so its oldest pavers are in that range, and a typical restoration is a deep clean, fresh joint sand and a new coat. If old sealer has failed, a 2026 Jacksonville price guide says stripping it adds $0.75 to $1.50 per square foot. To get a contractor's eyes on yours, call (904) 830-5386.

Do I need my HOA's approval before sealing pavers in Oakleaf Plantation?

Check first if your home is in an association. A washing company that serves the area lists Oakleaf and ZIP 32065 for newer HOAs, and boards often care how a home looks from the street. A clear sealer in the same color is a smaller change than a shiny new finish. For help picking a finish, request your free estimate.

How long does a paver sealing job take at an Oakleaf Plantation home?

Plan on one to two days. The pavers must be washed, sanded and fully dry before the coat goes on, and a Jacksonville company says sand and pavers dry for one to two hours before sealer. A PD Home Pros page asks for about 24 hours before foot traffic and 48 before cars. To get a time frame for your driveway, call (904) 830-5386.

Can the pavers around my screened pool be sealed?

Yes. A 2026 Jacksonville price guide puts pool decks at $1.50 to $3.00 per square foot and says most get a penetrating sealer, because a surface film can get slippery when wet. PD Home Pros adds a slip resistant additive on pool decks. Ask about traction before you pick a finish, then request your free estimate.
