Patio Cleaning, Sealing & Sanding Services
Restore the beauty and longevity of your patio with our professional patio cleaning, sealing, and joint sanding services. At Revitalized Solutions, we specialize in transforming weathered, stained, or dull outdoor spaces into vibrant, protected patios that last for years.
We begin with a deep pressure wash or soft wash (depending on your stone type) to remove built-up dirt, algae, efflorescence, and stains. Once your surface is clean and dry, we reapply polymeric sand between joints—this helps prevent weed growth, insect intrusion, and shifting.
Next, we apply a premium-grade stone sealer tailored to your patio’s material and desired finish:
Sealer Options:
Wet Look Sealer: Enhances color and gives your patio a rich, glossy, “just-washed” appearance. Ideal for concrete pavers, stamped concrete, and darker natural stones like slate or bluestone. This sealer also adds a durable, protective layer against UV rays, water, and oil-based stains.
Natural Look (Matte) Sealer: Provides a clean, invisible finish while still protecting the surface from moisture, staining, and fading. Perfect for lighter natural stones such as travertine, flagstone, or sandstone where you want to preserve the stone’s raw, organic appearance.
Not sure what sealer is right for your patio? We’ll assess your surface and recommend the best option for durability, slip resistance, and visual appeal.
Whether you’re looking to enhance curb appeal or protect your investment, our patio restoration service delivers long-lasting results with professional-grade materials and expert care.
Service Includes:
Full surface cleaning (pressure or soft washing)
Joint sanding with polymeric or regular sand
Application of wet look or natural look sealers
Protection against UV, weather, weeds, mold, and staining
Film-Forming vs. Penetrating Sealers: What’s the Difference?
When it comes to protecting your patio or hardscape, choosing the right type of sealer makes all the difference. There are two main categories of sealers: film-forming and penetrating—each with distinct benefits depending on your stone type and aesthetic preference.
Film-Forming Sealers
What it is:
Film-forming sealers create a visible protective layer on top of the stone or paver surface. This coating enhances the color and provides a “wet look” or glossy finish, depending on the product.
Best for:
Concrete pavers
Stamped concrete
Bricks
Dark or dense stones (e.g., bluestone, slate)
Pros:
Enhances color and shine (“wet look” effect)
Provides a barrier against water, oil, and UV rays
Can be slip-resistant with additives
Cons:
May need reapplication every 2–3 years
Can become slippery when wet if not treated
Less breathable—moisture trapped underneath can cause clouding if not properly applied
Penetrating Sealers (Impregnating Sealers)
What it is:
Penetrating sealers soak below the surface into the pores of the stone or concrete, forming an invisible barrier that repels moisture and stains while leaving the natural appearance unchanged.
Best for:
Natural stone (e.g., travertine, flagstone, limestone, sandstone)
Porous or light-colored surfaces
Areas where a matte, natural look is preferred
Pros:
Maintains the stone’s original look
Excellent moisture and stain resistance
Breathable—won’t trap water underneath
Long-lasting (up to 5–10 years in some cases)
Cons:
Doesn’t enhance color or sheen
May require more careful selection based on stone porosity
Which One Is Right for Your Patio?
Want to boost color and create a rich, wet look? Go with a film-forming sealer on concrete or darker stones.
Prefer a natural finish with strong protection? Choose a penetrating sealer for porous, lighter-colored natural stones.
