Should you seal your pavers in DeLand?

Scroll to clean ↓

Short answer: Seal your pavers in DeLand if you want the joints to hold their sand and the color to stay put between cleanings; skip it if your surface is plain concrete. DeLand sits inland, so it's sun and rain rather than salt air doing most of the work on bare pavers here. DeLand has 27,546 homes, one of the larger totals among the towns covered here.

01

Why DeLand is different

Being inland, DeLand doesn't have the salt-air factor that coastal Volusia towns deal with, but full Florida sun and rain still fade color and work sand loose from bare joints over time. That's the main local case for sealing here.

Assuming a whole driveway is pavers, a typical DeLand seal job runs $1,912, and the middle half of jobs fall between $1,125 and $1,912 depending on actual paver square footage measured from the county's aerial photo.

A DeLand paver surface is usually ready for another seal coat once sand has washed out from between the joints, weeds or ants start showing up in them, or the color still looks dull right after a fresh wash.

What to do

Step 1

Check whether your driveway or patio is pavers rather than poured concrete before planning to seal it.

Step 2

Have it cleaned first; sealant needs a clean, dry surface, not one with algae or grime still on it.

Step 3

Enter your DeLand address to get a price based on your measured paver surface.

Step 4

Tick paver sealing on the price card so cleaning, re-sanding and sealing happen in the same visit.

Step 5Plan on resealing again in 2 to 3 years as the seal coat wears down.

Questions people ask

Is there a best time of year to seal pavers in DeLand?

Sealing works best on a dry surface, so scheduling around a stretch without heavy rain in the forecast helps it bond properly.

Do older, pre-1990 pavers need extra prep before sealing?

They may need a more thorough clean if sand or moss has built up over the years, but the process itself is the same.

Does a bigger DeLand home mean a bigger seal price?

Price tracks actual paver square footage, so a larger home with a larger paver driveway or patio does typically cost more to seal.
