How Long Does Paver Sealer Last?

And When You Should Reseal Your Pavers in Florida?

If you’ve invested in beautiful pavers for your driveway, patio, or walkway, sealing them is one of the smartest ways to protect that investment. But a question we hear all the time is: "How long does paver sealer actually last?"

The Quick Answer:

Most high-quality paver sealers last 2 to 3 years in Florida’s climate. But that number can vary depending on a few key factors — and we’ll break them down for you below.


Florida Weather Plays a Big Role

Living near the beach? Expect your sealer to wear a bit faster. Florida’s intense sun, humidity, and heavy rainfall can gradually break down sealers over time, especially if your pavers are exposed all day long.

Coastal homes may need resealing every 18–24 months to stay protected and looking their best.

How the Pavers Were Prepped Matters

Sealer sticks best when the surface is perfectly clean and dry. At Press Seal, we always:

  • Pressure wash thoroughly

  • Remove all efflorescence and stains

  • Allow proper dry time

  • Use professional-grade sealer

Poor prep = poor results. A rushed or DIY job may only last 6–12 months before flaking, fading, or peeling starts to show.


Maintenance Affects Longevity

Just like waxing your car, taking care of your pavers can make the results last longer. Here’s how to get more life out of your sealer:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach

  • Rinse off debris and stains quickly

  • Schedule regular cleanings (we can help!)


When Should I Reseal?

You’ll know it’s time to reseal your pavers when you notice:

  • Color looks faded or dull

  • Water no longer beads on the surface

  • Sand between joints is washing out

  • Stains are harder to remove

If it’s been 2–3 years (or more), chances are your pavers are overdue for a refresh.


Why Press Seal?
