About This Service
Paver Cleaning & Sealing Done Right the First Time
Capital Region pavers take a beating. Freeze-thaw cycles, heavy spring rain, snowmelt, and humid summers create the perfect conditions for moss, weeds, and organic buildup to take hold in the joints. Left alone, degraded joint sand stops holding pavers in place — surfaces shift, weeds root deeper, and the whole patio loses stability. Our multi-step restoration cleans, re-sands, compacts, and seals so your pavers look sharp and stay locked together for years.
Why It Matters
What You Get With Capital Pro
Stops Weeds, Moss & Ants at the Joint
Polymeric sand hardens into a firm bond so weeds and insects can't take root between pavers — no more weeding every weekend.
Locks Pavers Back Together
Fresh polymeric sand plus vibratory compaction restores interlock, so pavers stop shifting and rocking underfoot.
Holds Up to Salt & Freeze-Thaw
Sealed pavers shrug off road salt, snow shovels, and repeated freeze-thaw cycles that chew unprotected joints.
Protects Against Staining & UV Fading
Sealer helps everyday spills sit on the surface instead of soaking in, and keeps colors from washing out under the sun.
Choose Your Look
Gloss, ultra deep enhancement, semi gloss moderate enhancement, or matte natural — you pick the finish before we seal.
Cleans Easier Between Services
A sealed, sanded surface rinses off with a hose or a light wash instead of another full restoration.
How We Scope Your Job
Maintenance Wash Or Full Re-Sand?
Not every paver surface needs the same service. A lot of jobs we can scope from your photos and satellite imagery, and we come out on site when it's needed — either way you get an honest recommendation, never a re-sand you don't need.
Sand Still Hard & Intact
Maintenance Wash
If the joint sand is still firm with no moss or weeds, we do a controlled low-pressure wash that lifts dirt, algae, and organic buildup without disturbing the sand. It keeps the patio sharp and stretches the time between full re-sanding services.
- Low-pressure, sand-safe cleaning
- Removes surface dirt, algae, and grime
- Preserves the existing joint sand
- Lower cost — extends the life of your last re-sand
Moss, Weeds Or Washed-Out Joints
Full Joint Blowout & Re-Sand
Growth in the joints means the old sand has broken down and is holding moisture — it can't stabilize the pavers anymore. We blow every joint out down to the base, clean the paver faces and joint walls, then install fresh polymeric sand and compact it in.
- Every joint blown out to the base
- Paver faces and joint walls cleaned
- Fresh polymeric sand installed
- Vibratory compaction to restore interlock
Why Polymeric Sand Beats Regular Joint Sand
- Binders harden with water into a firm bond regular sand can't match
- Helps hold back weed growth in the joints when maintained yearly
- Resists washout during heavy Capital Region rain and snowmelt
- Locks pavers together so the surface stops shifting and rocking
The step most jobs skip: compaction. After the sand goes in, we run a vibratory compactor over the pavers so the sand settles all the way down into the joints. Skipping it is the number one reason a cheap re-sand fails within a season. We also schedule cleaning, sanding, and sealing on separate dry days — polymeric sand and sealer both need dry conditions and the right temperature to set correctly.
Honest note on weeds: polymeric sand makes it much harder for weeds to take hold, but seeds blow in and settle on top of any patio. With proper care after installation — a yearly maintenance wash — the joints stay tight and weed growth stays under control.
We Clean With Hot Water Up To 200°F
Most companies run cold water off your spigot. We run heated water up to 200°F, which does the work that pressure alone can't — without beating up your pavers.
- Heat breaks down grease, oil, BBQ splatter, and sunscreen that cold water just pushes around
- Kills algae, moss, and mold at the root instead of only rinsing the surface green away
- Cleans deeper at lower pressure, so paver faces and joints don't get etched or blown out
- Lifts embedded dirt faster and leaves a more even, uniform color across the whole surface
- Surfaces dry quicker, which keeps sanding and sealing on schedule
Customize Your Look
Finishes & Sand Colors
Pick the finish you want before we seal. Results vary by paver color and texture — these show the range from full gloss to a natural matte.
Hurricane Cat 5
Gloss Finish
Maximum shine and a true wet look — the boldest, most reflective finish we offer.
Typhoon
Ultra Deep Enhancement
Deepest color enhancement. Darkens and richens the pavers for a dramatic look.
Break Wall
Invisible Sealer
No shine, no color change. Guards against stains and water while pavers look untouched.
Cyclone
Matte Natural Look
No shine at all. Protects the surface while keeping the pavers looking dry and natural.
Photos are for illustration only. Finish and sand color can vary with paver type, aggregates and moisture content.

Our Process
Simple, Professional, Guaranteed
1
On-Site Assessment
We inspect the joints and paver faces to decide whether your patio needs a full joint blowout and re-sand, or a maintenance wash that preserves intact sand — you get an honest recommendation and firm price.
2
Deep Clean & Joint Blowout
Rotary surface cleaner lifts dirt, algae, and organic buildup evenly across the pavers. Where sand has broken down, we blow out every joint down to the base so nothing degraded gets sealed underneath.
3
Polymeric Sand Installation
On a separate dry day, we sweep fresh polymeric sand into the joints, blow off the paver faces, and activate the binders with a controlled mist so the sand hardens into a firm, weed-resistant bond.
4
Vibratory Compaction
We compact the pavers with a vibratory plate/roller so the sand settles fully into the joints — the step most DIY jobs skip, and the biggest reason cheap sanding fails within a season.
5
Premium Sealer (Optional Add-On)
Choose a natural matte, wet-look color-enhancing, or invisible protective sealer. We apply an even coat and let it cure so it locks in the sand and shields the pavers from stains, UV, and moisture.
6
Final Walk-Through
We walk the finished patio with you, review cure times (foot traffic in 24 hrs, vehicles in 72 hrs), and leave care instructions for the season.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Do my pavers always need to be re-sanded when they're cleaned?
Not always. If the existing joint sand is still hard and intact with no moss or weeds, a maintenance wash removes surface dirt and algae without disturbing the sand. If the sand has broken down or growth has taken hold, a full joint blowout and re-sand is the right call. We'll tell you which you need during the on-site assessment.
What is polymeric sand and why is it better than regular joint sand?
Polymeric sand contains binding agents that harden after activation with water. Once set, it locks pavers together much more firmly than plain sand, resisting weed growth, insect intrusion, and washout during heavy Capital Region rain.
How long does polymeric sand last?
It depends on drainage, how the patio was originally installed, sun exposure, and traffic. In our freeze-thaw climate, pavers should be treated as a hardscape that needs periodic maintenance — plan on inspecting joints every few years and re-sanding when they start to break down.
Is sealing necessary?
Sealing is optional but strongly recommended in the Capital Region. It protects against stains, UV fading, road salt, and moisture intrusion, and makes routine cleaning much easier. We offer natural, wet-look color-enhancing, and invisible options.
Is paver sanding and sealing weather-dependent?
Yes. Both polymeric sand activation and sealer cure need dry conditions and appropriate temperatures. We usually schedule cleaning, sanding, and sealing across separate dry days so everything sets correctly.
Can I walk on it right after?
Foot traffic is fine in about 24 hours. Wait roughly 72 hours before driving or parking on sealed pavers to let everything fully cure.
Will cleaning damage my pavers or landscaping?
No. We use a surface cleaner sized for pavers so we don't gouge the faces, and we protect and rinse surrounding plants before, during, and after the job.
