Should you seal your pavers in Deltona?

Scroll to clean ↓

Short answer: Seal your pavers in Deltona if you want the joint sand to stay put and the color to hold between cleanings. It is not required, and it only applies if you actually have pavers, not plain concrete or stamped concrete. Deltona has 37,084 homes, one of the larger totals among the towns covered here, and a wide range of driveway sizes to go with it.

01

Why Deltona is different

Deltona sits inland, away from the coast, so the wear on pavers here comes from direct Florida sun and heavy rain rather than salt air. Sun bleaches color out of bare pavers over time, and rain works sand loose from the joints, which is exactly what sealing is meant to slow down.

Deltona's median home runs 1,525 square feet, and 18% of homes have a pool with 15% having a screened cage. If your pavers make up a pool deck, the steady sun and splash there are usually what show fading first.

Puma's price list runs $2.25 per square foot of pavers with a $499 minimum, cleaned, re-sanded and sealed in one visit. Assuming a whole driveway is pavers, a typical Deltona seal job runs $1,912, with the middle half of jobs between $1,125 and $1,912; your actual price depends on how much of your surface is pavers versus concrete.

What to do

Step 1

Figure out which surfaces are actually pavers versus poured or stamped concrete, since sealing only applies to pavers.

Step 2

Get the surface cleaned first; sealant needs a clean, dry surface to bond to, not one with dirt or algae underneath.

Step 3

Enter your Deltona address for a price built from your pavers' measured size.

Step 4

Tick paver sealing on the price card so the clean, re-sand and seal are handled in one visit.

Step 5

Plan to reseal again in 2 to 3 years, since that is roughly how long a seal coat holds up.

Questions people ask

Do I need to seal a plain concrete driveway too?

No. Sealing is a pavers job, tied to holding joint sand in place; plain concrete doesn't have joints to protect the same way.

Will sealing stop weeds between the pavers for good?

It slows weeds by keeping the joint sand compact, but some can still work their way in at the edges over time.

Can I pick sealing without a full clean first?

Sealing goes on after a full clean, never over dirt or grime, so the two are done together.
