Cleaning strips away the algae, pollen film, rust and dirt that dull pavers, so the surface looks brighter and grips better underfoot. Fresh sand follows, locking the pavers in place and giving weeds little space. The side walk that went green over the summer can match the rest of the yard again.

What is part of a paver cleaning job in Jacksonville?
Expect stain treatment, a gentle wash and new joint sand after everything dries. It works as a standalone visit or as the opening stage of a sealing job. Shaded walks and the strip beside a sprinkler head tend to eat the most time. To line up a cleaning, ring (904) 474-3568.
Stain treatment
A cleaner matched to the problem, whether algae, rust or leaf stains, goes on first and is tried on a small spot.
Gentle wash
A rotary surface cleaner sweeps an even path and leaves the joint sand where it is.
Fresh joint sand
Clean sand is swept into every gap after the pavers dry, then settled in place.
Sealer if you want it
A coat of sealer can follow once the surface is fully dry. The sealing guide explains what that adds.
What are the signs my pavers need cleaning?
Look for a green or black film along shady edges, a yellow coat each spring, orange marks near sprinklers, weeds in the joints and sand on the driveway after rain. Algae leads that list, since a slick walk or pool deck can cause a fall. Want yours looked at? Phone (904) 474-3568.
Is cleaning enough, or should I seal my pavers too?
A cleaning fixes how pavers look today, while a sealer coat decides how long that look holds. A cleaning alone costs less today, yet algae, rust and fading return on their own timetable. A coat makes the next wash quicker and needs renewing every few years. Say which you prefer when you ask for your free estimate.
How often should Jacksonville pavers be cleaned?
Many homes do well with a yearly cleaning, and shaded walks or pool decks may need one sooner than an open, sunny driveway. PaverGuard, a Jacksonville company, says wide open driveways wear faster than shaded walkways. A cleaning after the heavy spring pollen weeks clears the yellow film along with the winter grime. For a schedule that fits your yard, ring (904) 474-3568.
Does a harder blast clean pavers better?
No. Western Interlock, a paver maker, says to keep pressure at about 1,500 PSI or below, with a surface cleaner's spinning heads about an inch from the pavers. A hard blast also empties the joints. Find out what pressure and nozzle the contractor plans to use when you ask for your free estimate.
Method matters as much as the machine. A cleaner matched to each stain does the heavy lifting, and Safe Touch says irrigation rust needs a rust treatment, not more pressure. Where does the runoff go if your yard slopes toward a pond or storm drain? Put that question to the contractor, or ring (904) 474-3568 to talk it through.
Why does yellow pollen keep coming back on my pavers?
Pine is largely behind the yellow coating that settles on outdoor surfaces each spring, Jacksonville Today reported in March 2026, when pollen counts hit some of the year's highest levels. Rain rinses some off, and the next dry, breezy day brings more. A cleaning after the peak outlasts one during it. To plan around pollen season, call (904) 474-3568.
What is the orange staining near my sprinklers?
Most often it is iron. Safe Touch says irrigation rust leaves orange marks on concrete, garage doors and stucco, and that it takes a rust treatment instead of more pressure. The marks must be gone before sealer goes on. Point them out when you ask for your free estimate.
Why are white patches showing on newer pavers?
A chalky white film on newer pavers is usually efflorescence, natural salts that rise out of concrete. Unilock says it can take two to three months or up to a year to fade, and sealing should wait until it is gone. Clouded old sealer can look nearly identical. Unsure which you have? Ring (904) 474-3568 and describe it.
Which paved areas can be cleaned at a Jacksonville home?
Every paved area at the house qualifies, from the driveway and pool deck to the patio and front walk. Grime differs from one area to the next, which changes the cleaner and the method. Start with whichever looks worst and ask for your free estimate.
Driveways
Tires, hot rubber and oil drips land on the driveway first, and a front yard with no shade takes the most sun. Cleaning keeps color even and joints full where cars turn.
Pool decks and lanais
Pool decks take splash, chlorine and bare feet daily. Cleaning here should leave a surface that drains and never turns slick.
Back patios
A patio under oaks or beside a screen enclosure stays damp, so green growth starts early. Cleaning on a patio targets those shady corners and slows their return.
Walkways and entries
Walks run close to mulch, soil and sprinklers, so they stain easily. Cleaning at the front door improves the first thing a guest steps on.
What leaves Jacksonville pavers dirty?
Sun fading, green growth, storm sand loss, sprinkler rust and spring pollen lead the list. Cleaning handles several, and sealing or repairs cover the rest. To sort out which apply at your home, dial (904) 474-3568.
1. Fading in open sun
The July mean daily high in Jacksonville is about 92 degrees, and a driveway with no shade bakes all afternoon. Stallone's Pro Wash says strong sun can fade unsealed pavers within a few summers.
2. Green growth under oaks and near water
Jacksonville has a humid subtropical climate with about 52 inches of rain a year. Shaded corners, north-facing walks and lots near the river or a pond stay damp, and algae follows.
3. Joint sand lost to storms
Stallone's Pro Wash notes that heavy afternoon storms can wash out polymeric sand before it cures. Once joints run low, pavers shift and weeds move in.
4. Orange marks from sprinklers
Safe Touch says irrigation rust needs a rust treatment, and a wash lifts it when that treatment goes on first. Those marks have to come off before any coat goes down.
5. Yellow pollen film and cloudy old sealer
Pine is largely behind the yellow coating that settles on outdoor surfaces each spring, Jacksonville Today reported. Sealer laid over that film, or over a failing old coat, can cloud and peel.
What does paver cleaning cost in Jacksonville?
Stallone's Pro Wash lists paver cleaning from $0.22 per square foot, with the final price set by square footage, paver type and whether joint sand is needed. Applied to a 600 square foot driveway, the starting figure is about $132, and for a 1,000 square foot pool deck about $220. Safe Touch says empty joints and pool deck pavers raise a quote. To price your property, ask for your free estimate.
Thinking about sealing too? Ask for a single combined price. For the whole clean, sand and seal, Safe Touch lists $1.75 to $3.25 a square foot. Need help weighing the two? Ring (904) 474-3568.

What do cleaned pavers look like around Jacksonville?
How does the paver cleaning process go, step by step?
A cleaning-only visit finishes after step four, once the joints are full. Ready for a date? Ring (904) 474-3568.
1. Measure and look it over
Measuring the paved area comes first, so the cleaning quote rests on real numbers. Low spots, broken pavers, old sealer and any place water collects after rain get written down.
2. Cover and wash
Plants, screens and the garage door are covered, and the sprinklers are switched off. A rotary surface cleaner then washes the pavers at 1,500 PSI or less, the ceiling Western Interlock gives.
3. Treat the stains
Algae gets a mildew cleaner, irrigation rust gets a rust remover and failed sealer gets a stripper. Each product is tried on a small spot first.
4. Refill the joints
Once the pavers dry, sand is swept into every gap, settled and topped off. Leftover grains are blown clear so none bake onto the surface.
5. Seal and walk the job
When sealer is part of the job, a low pressure sprayer lays it down in thin passes and a roller levels it. The contractor then walks the area with you and says how long cars and feet must stay off.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much is it to clean pavers?
Stallone's Pro Wash, a Jacksonville company, lists paver cleaning from $0.22 per square foot. At that rate an 800 square foot driveway begins near $176. Square footage, paver type and whether joint sand is needed move the final number.
Should you seal pavers after power washing?
Sealing is optional, but the joints do need new sand once the pavers dry. A coat applied after that helps hold the sand through afternoon storms and makes pollen and algae easier to rinse off later. The surface has to be fully dry first.
How much does it cost to have pavers cleaned and sealed?
Safe Touch publishes $1.75 to $3.25 per square foot for a clean, sand and seal in Jacksonville. A 1,000 square foot pool deck comes to about $1,750 to $3,250. Failed sealer that must be stripped adds to it.
Can I clean, sand and seal my pavers?
A contractor handles all three in sequence: wash, refill the joints, then seal onto a dry surface. Safe Touch warns that sealing over dirt or wet pavers is where jobs go wrong. Ask for the whole job in one written quote.
How much does it cost to re-sand and seal pavers?
Sand is part of the clean, sand and seal price Safe Touch publishes at $1.75 to $3.25 per square foot. Safe Touch also says empty joints raise the quote. Make sure sand is listed in yours.
Is it a good idea to pressure wash pavers?
Yes, as long as the pressure stays moderate and the joints get fresh sand afterward. Western Interlock, a paver maker, puts the limit near 1,500 PSI and warns that cleaning can disturb joint sand. A surface cleaner does more than raw force.
Why do my pavers turn green after summer rain in Jacksonville?
Rain, shade and humidity keep the surface damp, which is what algae needs. Jacksonville gets about 52 inches of rain a year, so shaded walks and lots near water go green first. Sealing can make the surface easier to keep clean.
What is the orange staining near my Jacksonville sprinklers?
Most often it is irrigation rust. Safe Touch says it needs a rust treatment, not more pressure, and that harder washing does not lift it. The stain has to be gone before any sealer goes on.
Time to wash away the green and the grime?
Send a few details about your pavers, and a contractor replies within 1 business day, usually much sooner.
