  • Does applying a sealer change the colour of the pavers?

  • Will the pavers fade?
    Over time the face of the pavers will begin to weather due to the outdoor elements, depending on the appearance desired, sealing is an alternative after several years of weathering and will give them a new lease of life, a light acid wash is also another option to cleaning.
  • What is the white stuff on my pavers?
    Effloresence it is called and is a white powdery substance released from within the paver due to H2o (water) reacting with the lime within the cement. Our added sealer during production helps reduce the severity of this unfortunately not 100% resistent to this chemical reaction which occurs in all products using cement.
