Regular cleaning is essential to remove dirt, debris, and stains. This can be done using a broom, leaf blower, or pressure washer. For tougher stains, such as oil or grease, specialized paver cleaning solutions may be needed.

Weeds and moss can grow in the joints between pavers. To prevent this, apply a weed killer or moss control product as needed. Regular sweeping can also help prevent weeds from taking root.

The sand in the joints between pavers can wash away over time, reducing the stability of the pavers. Re-sanding involves adding new sand to these joints, usually polymeric sand, which hardens when wet to prevent erosion and inhibit weed growth.

Sealing pavers helps protect them from stains, weathering, and wear. A high-quality sealant creates a barrier that repels water, oil, and other substances. It also enhances the color and appearance of the pavers. Sealants should be reapplied every 2-3 years, depending on the type and exposure to elements.
