You have already spent valuable time and money on your new brick paver patio or driveway. You are already the talk of the neighborhood and have received countless compliments on your landscape’s new look. With everything that you have put into your new brick pavers, doesn’t it make sense to make sure they are cared for properly with regular Bloomfield Hills brick paver maintenance?
Sealing Your Brick Pavers
Sealing your brick pavers can be one of the most important things you can do to maintain the quality of your brick pavers. It is recommended to seal your brick pavers about 6 months after they have been installed as they will take a little bit of time to settle in. After you have spent a little time enjoying your new brick pavers and are ready to have them sealed, it is time to seek the brick paver maintenance specialist at PMS to get the job done right.
Methods of Sealing Brick Pavers
There are 2 primary methods of applying a brick paver sealing solution:
- Spraying – while many people advertise this method of sealing brick pavers, this is not always the best option. As brick pavers tend to be outdoors, spraying a sealing solution can result in an uneven application of the brick sealing solution due to the wind making the application inefficient. Furthermore, as brick pavers have a lot of nooks and crannies, a spray on sealing solution cannot always get into all the tiny areas which are usually the most crucial to have sealed well.
- Rolling – rolling is typically the best option for applying brick paver sealing solution for many reasons. With total control over the application process, you can be sure every brick is sealed properly with little waste. With this level of control, a Bloomfield Hills brick paver maintenance specialist will be able to ensure no sealing solution gets into any of your plants and flower beds – something you can’t guarantee with the spray method. Rolling on the sealing solution tends to do a better job sealing all the most sensitive areas of brick pavers, but also tends to last longer, resulting in less applications being required over the years to maintain vibrant looking brick pavers.
