Benefits of Patio Restoration

Protect your investment

Brick paver driveways and patio restoration are fantastic improvements to your homes beauty, but after time they will fade in color and become dingy looking, often having weeds and moss growing between the stones. This is nothing that can’t be cleaned and restored like new with a patio restoration. Polymeric sand will stabilize the joints between stones hardening to keep growth down while staying flexible enough to move with constant change in temperature and Chicago weather conditions. During your patio restoration, we will use Seal King Sealers to protect your brick pavers while improving the appearance and color contrast.

Benefits of sealing pavers include: minimize maintenance, prevent stains from oil, food and drink spillages, BBQ grease, dirt, fallen leaves and pet messes (If pavers are sealed, stains will remain on the sealant and not penetrate into the paver pores), slow the growth of moss or mildew in damp areas, reduce the rate of color fade, inhibit weed infestation and keep your pavers looking new for longer.

Patio Restoration Process

Deck Solutions perfected multi-step patio restoration process

Step 1: Cleaning

After applying a pre cleaning agent to assist in removal of oil, food stains, ground-in dirt and efflorescence a deck solutions professional will clean your patio surface using a 3500 psi pressure washer with a whisper wash surface scrubbing machine. Deck solutions will always take care to rinse the entire work area and make sure to leave the entire area clean before the next step of your patio restoration.

Step 2: polymeric sand

Once the pavers have had time to dry we will begin to replace the sand with polymeric joint stabilizing sand. After all the joints are thoroughly filled and the surface is brushed clean a light shower of water will harden the joints.

Step 3: Application of sealer

After ensuring the pavers are completely dry Deck Solutions will apply a liberal coat of sealer using a combination of rollers and airless sprayers.

Polymeric Sand

Quality Ploymeric Sand you can trust from Seal King

Polymeric sand is a granular material placed between the joints or seams in brick pavers or stone in patios, walkways and driveways. It’s primary function is to improve the interlock and therefore the durability and stability of a paved surface.

Until 4-5 years ago, this function was performed most often with silica or torpedo sand. The sand would be swept between the joints of a brick paver, bluestone or flagstone patio, and it’s mere presence would enhance the interlock between pavers or stones.

Polymeric sand is a great improvement over sand for its stability characteristics resistance to washout during heavy rainfall. Polymeric sand reduces weed growth and deters insect infestation.
