What is Interlock Restoration & Sealing?
Interlock restoration and sealing is a comprehensive maintenance process designed to restore the appearance, stability, and longevity of existing paver surfaces such as driveways, patios, walkways, and pool areas. Over time, interlock can accumulate dirt, weeds, and stains while the joint sand between the pavers begins to deteriorate, allowing moisture to penetrate beneath the surface and potentially cause movement or settling.
Why Choose Interlock Restoration & Sealing
Interlock restoration and sealing is one of the most effective ways to revive and protect your outdoor surfaces. Over time, interlock pavers can lose their color, accumulate dirt, and experience joint sand deterioration that affects both their appearance and structural stability. A professional restoration process—including repairs, deep cleaning, polymeric sand replacement, and sealing—helps restore the original beauty of the pavers while protecting them from stains, moisture, and everyday wear. This not only enhances the overall look of your property but also helps extend the lifespan of your interlock and reduce the likelihood of future repairs.
The Benefits
Regular maintenance of your interlock surfaces ensures the joints are stabilized which prevents any shifting of the stones, as well as keeps the surface looking like new by restoring colour and protecting the stone against harmful UV rays, dirt, oil and other stains.
- Eliminates and prevents further weeds from coming through
- Protects against harmful UV rays, dirt, oil and other harmful stains that can deteriorate the stone
- Restores faded colour, giving the stone a more enhanced look
- Stabilizes joints to prevent stones from shifting
- Facilitates maintenance, making it easier to powerwash and get rid of stains
The Process
The Restoration process includes several tedious steps including a thorough surface prep, polymeric sand installation and finally sealing.
Repairs
The initial phase of paver restoration includes repairing any damage and assessing the stability of the underlying base material. After carefully removing the existing pavers, adjustments or repairs are made to the base before relaying the pavers in the desired pattern, ensuring proper spacing and alignment for a visually appealing and safe outcome.
Powerwashing & Surface Prep
Our expert team utilizes heavy-duty power washing equipment, including a turbo nozzle, to thoroughly clean paver joints, removing dirt, moss, weeds, and old polymeric sand. Careful pressure adjustments are made to maintain the pavers' integrity, followed by a meticulous inspection to ensure each joint is pristine, preparing the surface for the next phase of restoration and leaving it clean and refreshed.
Polymeric Sand Installation
The installation of polymeric jointing sand is critical for bonding and stabilizing pavers, beginning with its careful spread over the surface and subsequent compaction into joints using a vibrating compactor. After sweeping away excess sand, activating the polymer binders by wetting the surface initiates the bonding process, leading to a durable bond over 24 to 48 hours, providing stability, preventing weed growth, erosion, and maintaining the pavers' integrity and aesthetic appeal.
Sealing
The sealing process begins with thorough preparation, including clearing the surface of leaves, dirt, and debris, followed by an even application of sealer using a specialized spray system and back-rolling for uniform coverage. This meticulous process not only enhances the pavers' appearance but also provides long-lasting protection against stains, moisture, and UV damage, ensuring their beauty for years to come.

FAQs
Find answers to common questions about our polymeric sand replacement service.
How do you apply the sealer, do you roll it on or spray it?
At Seal-It, we apply all our commercial-grade sealers using a high pressurized spray system. This allows for an even application, enhanced look and long lasting finish. We avoid rolling on sealers as this method often leads to issues including unevenness, streak marks, and an overall messier job.
How will you keep the sealer off my curbs and freshly painted garage doors?
We use state-of-the-art masking technology which ensures the cleanest edge possible, keeping the sealer where it belongs. Rest assured with our mess-free guarantee!
How long will the sealer last?
We only use the highest quality commercial-grade materials. Along with this, we thoroughly clean surfaces and apply the necessary amount of coats to ensure a finish that will last between 1 and 2 years. Factors that might affect the longevity of the sealer are that which result from general wear and tear, such as excessive vehicle or foot traffic, and severe weather conditions.
Is the sealer slippery when wet?
No, and that is because all our sealers are applied with a heavy-duty mix of slip-resistant compound!
When is the best time of year to seal?
Generally, when it comes to seal coating, there is not really a specific temperature that is required, so long as the weather is over 10 degrees Celsius. That means anytime from Spring to Fall!
How often do you recommend sealing?
Regular sealing protects your investment and keeps your property looking great! Generally, you want to re-seal at least every 1 – 2 years to keep your surface in good shape. Avoid holding off for too many years, as eventually it could be too late with evidence of visible damage such as cracking and discolouration.
Essential Maintenance for Long-lasting Paver Installations
Typically a quality polymeric sand installation will last anywhere between 3 to 5 years. Due to exposure to the elements such as rain, snow, ice and UV rays, the sand will begin to lose its effectiveness soon after this time period. Loose, cracked, and/or missing polymeric sand may cause weeds to invade the joints, as well as pose a risk of the pavers shifting due to the bedding sand deteriorating underneath. Replacing the polymeric sand when required is the most important paver maintenance procedure and absolute best way to protect your investment. It will prevent unsightly weeds from taking over and ruining the look of your patio, as well as prevent the possibility of the pavers shifting, thus leading to more expensive repairs such as a lift & relay.
