Concrete Paver Cleaning

Pavers are a great product that can be used well for so many applications. Commercial, residential, driveways, pool decks, walkways and patios and many more!

As opposed to concrete stamping the installer doesn’t have to deal with adverse weather conditions, heat or rain. If pavers are affected by freeze thaw issues a section can be taken out and replaced using the same pavers. There is no concern with cracks like with stamped concrete. If a paver gets damaged it can easily be replaced.

Seal Pavers are made of precast concrete in many styles with unlimited design possibilities. Like with concrete efflorescence will make the paver color appear to have faded. Cleaning concrete pavers with the right solution will solve the problem. Effloresence is a white salt common in concrete. Over time the salts will work their way to the surface. To avoid developing a slippery and treacherous outdoor paving surface Smart Precast recommends that concrete pavers be thoroughly hosed down with a garden hose and swept once every six weeks to remove any dirt or organic grime.
