Paver Sealing & Polymeric Sand in Closter, NJ
Re-sand and seal your pavers to lock out weeds, stains and wash-out for years.
Paver Sealing & Polymeric Sand in Closter, NJ
If you live in Closter, you already know what our winters do to hardscape. The freeze-thaw cycle we get here in northern Bergen County—snow one week, a 45-degree thaw the next—works sand right out of your paver joints and lets weeds and ants move in. We're Gallo Bros, a family-run exterior cleaning crew from North Jersey, and paver sealing is one of the jobs we get asked about most in town.
A lot of the homes off Closter Dock Road and around the older parts of Harrington Avenue have brick or concrete paver walkways and patios that have been down for years. Before we seal anything, we clean the surface, pull the old joint sand, and re-fill with polymeric sand so the joints actually lock up. Then the sealer goes on. Skipping the prep is why some jobs fail in a season or two—we don't cut that corner.
We'll tell you straight whether your pavers even need sealing yet. Some don't. If yours do, we'll walk the patio or driveway with you, explain matte vs. wet-look finish, and give you a real number. No pressure, no pushy upsell.

They also performed a few repairs and reset a few areas that needed attention. We had never had this done professionally before. From the beginning estimating phase to the final coat of sealer, we were very happy with the services provided, the price and the final result, which they also warrantee for 1 year. I highly recommend Gallo Bros. Power Washing and will use them for other services in the future.”

“Before and after photos attached. Gallo Bros Power Washing is a must. Our pavers were full of weeds which took me hours to pull out only to have to do again a week later when they grew back. With two short days, our pavers looked brand new. After the men power washed our pavers, my husband and I could barely believe they did not totally replace them haha When they arrived day 2 to fill in and sand the pavers, again we were speechless. Our yard looks completely new. We are so appreciative of the quick and professional work they did as well as the friendliness and quick responses we received. Highly recommend this service!”

“I wanted power wash my backyard deck for a long time but they said it cannot be done due to the equipment was not accessible however Gallo Brothers had very long 400feet hose and did the power wash which was not done for many years. I am very happy they did a very good job specially Mark was very helpful to do front porch and walkway. It is speck clean this is exactly what I wanted to do. I do highly recommend Gallo Bothers meticulous job.”

Paver Sealing & Polymeric Sand in Closter — FAQ
How often should I reseal pavers in Closter?
For most Closter homes, every 3 to 5 years depending on sun exposure, foot traffic, and how our winters treat the surface. Driveways that get plowed and salted usually need it sooner than a shaded backyard patio.
What's the best time of year to seal pavers in North Jersey?
Late spring through early fall, when we get a stretch of dry days and temps stay above roughly 50°F. We avoid sealing right before rain or a hard cold snap so the product cures properly.
Do I really need polymeric sand?
If your joints are washing out, growing weeds, or you've got ants working the seams, yes. Polymeric sand hardens between the pavers, resists erosion, and holds up far better than plain sand through our freeze-thaw cycles.
Will sealing change how my pavers look?
It can. We offer matte finishes that keep a natural look and wet-look sealers that darken and enrich the color. We'll show you the difference on your own pavers before committing.
Do you serve areas around Closter too?
Yes. We're a North Jersey outfit and regularly work neighboring Bergen County towns like Demarest, Haworth, Alpine, and Harrington Park along with Closter.
Do you do paver sealing near me?
We cover all of North Jersey from Randolph — Morris, Bergen, Passaic, Somerset, Sussex, Hunterdon, Essex, Warren and Union Counties — and paver restoration is the work we do most. Quotes are free and on site, usually within the same week.
What is paver restoration, versus just sealing?
Sealing on its own is a coat on top. A restoration is the whole job: strip the surface and the joints, re-sand with polymeric sand so the joints lock up again, then seal. Sealing over failed joints looks fine for a season and then the weeds come back through.
How much does paver sealing cost in NJ?
Most patios and driveways land between $1.50 and $4 per square foot depending on condition, joint size and which sealer you choose. We clean, re-sand and seal — and quote it all up front, free.
What is polymeric sand and why does it matter?
Polymeric sand goes in the joints between pavers and hardens when wet. It locks the pavers in place and blocks weeds, ants and wash-out far better than regular sand.
How long does paver sealing last?
Usually 3–5 years before a re-seal, depending on traffic and sun. Sealing also brings back the color and makes the surface much easier to keep clean.
Do you clean the pavers first?
Always. We deep-clean, remove old failing sand, re-sand the joints with polymeric sand, then seal. Sealing dirty pavers just locks the dirt in — we never skip the prep.
