Your brick paver patio or walkway is an important part of your home, and your homes appearance. Not to mention the cost of your investment. Sealing your pavers is an excellent way of protecting your investment. Think of your pavers as a new car. You wash and clean it, then wax it to get it back to that brand new shine. When you have your pavers sealed, they look restored to when they were first installed. Some reasons to have your pavers sealed include:
Fade Protection
UV Rays here in Florida are strong. This is the “Sunshine State”. Over time, the UV rays degrade the materials and the colors can begin to fade. Having them sealed helps to keep the colors from fading and the pavers from eroding. Often times it even makes the colors stand out more!
Maintenance
There is much less regular maintenance needed when pavers are sealed. Sealing creates a barrier that inhibits the growth of weeds and mold.
Stabilization
Pavers are kept in place with sand. Over time this sand is washed away by rain and weather. Having them sealed also hardens the joint sand in between the pavers, thus preventing them from being displaced. An added benefit for those who have pavers in their pool patio is that the sand will be stopped from being transferred to the pool!
Appearance
Sealed pavers are less likely to get stained from spills, leaves, oils, and anything else that might fall on them. The sealant provides an invisible layer which repels water, oil and other things that might be spilled. Just wash it away when you notice something there.
Sealing your pavers creates an invisible barrier that protects them from the harsh elements including rain, sun and general debris. It also preserves the pavers’ natural beauty for years to come.
