Paver patio maintenance in Charleston, SC

Pavers stay looking new when they are cleaned, re-sanded and sealed on a schedule. Our maintenance plans handle the soft washing, joint re-sanding and resealing for you, on a quarterly or yearly plan.

What maintenance includes

Three jobs keep pavers clean, tight and protected.

  • Soft washing

    A low-pressure wash with a cleaning solution that removes algae, mildew, pollen and grime without blasting the sand out of your joints.

  • Joint re-sanding

    Fresh polymeric sand is swept into the joints. It locks the pavers together and helps resist weeds and washout.

  • Resealing

    A protective sealer that deepens color and helps resist stains and moisture. How often it is needed depends on the sealer and how much sun and weather your patio gets.

Quarterly and yearly plans

Both plans are priced by the square footage of your patio, driveway or walkway. Send us your details and we quote both so you can compare.

Why pavers need regular care in the Lowcountry

What wears on a paver patio here

  • Humidity and shade that feed algae, moss and mildew
  • Pollen and leaf stains that settle into the surface
  • Heavy rain that washes sand out of the joints
  • Sun that slowly fades color where the surface is unsealed
  • Salt air on the coast and islands

Upkeep costs less than repair

Cleaning and re-sanding on a schedule usually costs much less than repairing a patio that has been left to stain, sink or grow weeds.

Questions about paver maintenance

How often should pavers be soft washed?

Most patios do well with a wash once or twice a year. Shaded or damp patios can need more, which is what the quarterly plan is for.

How often do pavers need re-sanding?

When joints have washed out or dropped below the surface. That is often every few years, and sooner on driveways or patios that get heavy rain and use.

How often do pavers need to be resealed?

Usually every few years, depending on the sealer and how much sun the surface gets. We check the surface at each visit and tell you when it is due.

Can you maintain a patio someone else built?

Send us your details and photos. We will tell you what your patio needs and quote a plan.

What comes free with a Pave the Way install?

Every paver install includes a free soft wash once a year for 2 years and a 5-year workmanship warranty.
