Frequently Asked Questions

How long does paver sealing last in Florida?

Plan on two to five years. A Jacksonville company that works with Trident sealers gives that span for Northeast Florida, and a Jacksonville price guide puts driveways and pool decks nearer three years and shaded patios nearer five. Water that soaks into the pavers instead of beading is the sign the coat is spent. To have yours checked, call (904) 849-6284.

How much should I pay for paver sealing?

A fair bid in the Jacksonville area lands inside $1.75 to $3.25 per square foot to clean, sand and seal, the range one local washing company publishes. A 2026 Jacksonville guide warns that anything under $1 per square foot usually skips prep work. Ask what a price includes before you compare two numbers. To get a bid you can check against those ranges, ask for your free estimate.

Does my Palencia association need to approve a new paver finish?

Ask before you book. Palencia was drawn up with several neighborhoods and a Spanish colonial look, so a board may care how a driveway reads from the street. Moving from a natural finish to a high gloss wet look is the kind of change worth raising first. To talk through finish choices, ask for your free estimate.

Can the pavers around my screened pool in Palencia be sealed?

Yes. A 2026 Jacksonville guide prices pool decks at about $1.50 to $3.00 per square foot and leans toward penetrating sealers there, since a glossy film can feel slick when wet. Ask about traction before you choose a finish. To get your pool deck inspected, call (904) 849-6284.

Why do pavers near the marsh in Palencia turn green so quickly?

Algae grows wherever the surface stays damp. Palencia sits along the Intracoastal Waterway, with about two miles of waterway and creek frontage, and shaded corners dry slowly in that humid air. A cleaning removes the film, and a sealer coat makes the next one easier. To plan a visit, ask for your free estimate.

How long should new pavers wait before they are sealed?

Wait 60 to 90 days, says Unilock, a paver maker. That gives the white haze called efflorescence time to clear, and it can take up to a year in some cases. Sealing over it traps the haze. If your pavers went in this year, mention the date when you call (904) 849-6284.

How long does a paver sealing job take in Palencia?

Most homes take one to two days. A Jacksonville washing company says empty joints or a failed old coat turn the job into a two day restoration, because the surface has to dry between the wash and the sealer. Rain can push the second day back. For a time frame on your own pavers, ask for your free estimate.

How much does it cost to re-sand and seal pavers?

At $1.75 to $3.25 per square foot, a 600 square foot driveway comes to about $1,050 to $1,950, and the new sand is part of that figure. A 2026 Jacksonville guide lists $0.25 to $0.75 per square foot when only new sand goes in. For a number on your own driveway, call (904) 849-6284.
