Should you seal your pavers in Daytona Beach?

Scroll to clean ↓

Short answer: In Daytona Beach, sealing your pavers after a clean is worth it if you want to slow the fading and joint erosion that salt air speeds up. It is optional, not required, and it only matters for actual pavers rather than poured concrete.

01

Why Daytona Beach is different

Daytona Beach sits on the coast, so salt in the air is a constant here in a way it isn't inland. Salt speeds up how fast bare pavers fade and lets joint sand erode faster, which is the main local reason to think about sealing rather than just cleaning on a schedule.

The median home here is 1,360 square feet, on the smaller side for Volusia, which often means a smaller driveway surface to seal too.

Assuming a whole driveway is pavers, a typical Daytona Beach seal job runs $1,125, the lower end of the county's range, since driveways here tend to run smaller. The middle half of jobs falls between $1,125 and $1,912 depending on actual paver square footage.

What to do

Step 1

Confirm your surface is pavers and not poured concrete, since sealing is a pavers-only step.

Step 2

Have the surface cleaned first so sealant bonds to a clean, dry surface instead of grime.

Step 3

Type your Daytona Beach address into the price tool to get a price from your measured pavers.

Step 4

Tick paver sealing on the price card to have cleaning, re-sanding and sealing done together.

Step 5

Expect to reseal again in roughly 2 to 3 years given the coastal exposure here.

Questions people ask

Does salt air really change how often I should seal?

It doesn't change the general 2 to 3 year window, but coastal exposure is one more reason bare pavers fade and lose sand faster here than inland.

Will sealing fix pavers that are already shifting?

Sealing stabilizes the sand going forward; it doesn't reset pavers that have already sunk or shifted out of place.

Is sealing on the instant price along with cleaning?

Yes, tick paver sealing on the price card and it's priced and scheduled with the clean in one visit.
