Does sealing protect pavers from salt air?

It slows salt from soaking into the stone, where crystals can flake the surface. It cannot keep salt from landing there, so an occasional rinse still pays off. The old salt film must also come off before a fresh coat goes on. Curious which product handles salt best? send in the short estimate form.

Should I clean my pavers before sealing them?

Yes, always. Sealer locks in whatever is on the surface, and near the water that often includes a salt film plus algae. Washing first, then refilling the joints with sand, gives the coat something clean to grip. Ask any bidder to confirm the wash is in the price. Dial (904) 468-6386 with questions.

Is there a downside to sealing pavers?

The main one is cost that returns every few years. A glossy film can also feel slick when wet, and a coat laid over damp stone can cloud up. Picking a dry day and a finish suited to each spot avoids most of it. To talk through the trade-offs, send in the short estimate form.
