This project involved restoring a multi-colored brick paver patio whose joints had lost sand and were starting to look dusty and worn. We cleaned the surface, re‑sanded all joints, and prepared the patio for professional sealing to protect and stabilize the pavers.

Surface: Brick paver patio
Location: South Florida
Services: Surface cleaning, joint re‑sanding, sealing preparation
Sealer finish: Ready for premium sealer application (natural or enhanced look)
Customer type: Residential home
Before the work, many of the joints were partially empty, and the patio collected dust and debris between the pavers. After re‑sanding, the joints were filled and leveled, giving the patio a clean, uniform appearance and improving the stability of the pavers.
Thoroughly cleaned the paver surface to remove dirt and loose joint material.
Spread new joint sand across the patio and broomed it into all joints for full coverage.
Leveled and compacted the sand so joints were properly filled and ready for sealing.
Removed excess sand from the surface, leaving a clean finish ahead of the sealer application.
The refreshed joints and clean surface made the patio look sharp and well maintained again. With the joints rebuilt and the surface ready for sealing, the area is easier to sweep, better protected against movement, and prepared for long‑lasting protection.
Over time, joint sand washes out from rain, foot traffic, and cleaning, leaving gaps between the pavers. Re‑sanding fills those gaps again, helps lock the pavers in place, and prepares the surface for a proper sealing job so the patio lasts longer and stays easier to maintain.
We cleaned the brick paver patio, spread fresh joint sand across the surface, broomed it into all the joints, leveled it, and removed excess material from the surface so the patio was ready for a professional sealer application.
Yes. Properly filled joints support the pavers, reduce movement, and help the sealer lock everything together. Skipping re‑sanding can lead to loose pavers, more weed growth, and faster wear even if a sealer is applied.
For most brick paver patios we use a high‑quality joint sand (often polymeric) designed to compact tightly in the joints and resist wash‑out, so the pavers stay stable and the joints stay cleaner over time.
A patio of this size is typically completed in about a day, depending on weather and how much cleaning and joint rebuilding is needed before the surface is ready to seal.
Re‑sanding and sealing significantly reduce weed growth by filling the joints and limiting where seeds can settle, but no solution can guarantee that weeds will never appear again. With proper maintenance, you’ll see far fewer issues.
Once the sand is dry, compacted, and any dust is cleared from the surface, we can move forward with sealing, usually within the same day or the next suitable weather window.
Light foot traffic is usually fine after the sand has settled, but we recommend minimizing heavy use until the surface has been sealed so the joints stay evenly filled and undisturbed.
South Florida homeowners trust us to clean, sand, and seal their pavers the right way the first time, here’s what they’re saying after seeing their driveways, patios, and pool decks transformed.
