Paver Sealing & Polymeric Sand in Kinnelon, NJ
Re-sand and seal your pavers to lock out weeds, stains and wash-out for years.
Paver Sealing & Polymeric Sand in Kinnelon, NJ
Most of the paver work we see in Kinnelon comes down to two things: shade and slope. Up in **Smoke Rise**, the driveways run long and wooded, and pavers set under that oak and maple canopy stay damp for days after a rain. That constant moisture is what feeds the green film and moss you find creeping into the joints — and it's why we always clean and re-sand before we seal, not after.
Down by **Fayson Lakes**, lakeside patios and pool surrounds sit low and hold humidity, so the sand washes out and weeds take hold faster than folks expect. On the older colonials along **Kinnelon Road**, we see a lot of clay pavers and Belgian-block aprons where the original sand joints have simply eroded from years of runoff.
Then there's the North Jersey winter. Freeze-thaw cycles lift and shift pavers, and the road salt that ends up on hilltop driveways chews at the surface. Polymeric sand locks the joints so they don't wick water down where it can freeze and heave, and a proper seal gives the salt and pollen something to sit on top of instead of soaking in.

They went above and beyond to remove dirt and mildew from our house siding, soffits and multiple bluestone patios and walkways, as well as our dock and wood furniture. They also took great care to avoid or work around multiple bird nests which had recently hatched babies pre fledge. I will definitely call them in the future!”
Cathy Marshall
“We hired Gallo Bros Power Washing to power wash, re-sand and seal our 20 year old paver patio and front walk. 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.”

Paver Sealing & Polymeric Sand in Kinnelon — FAQ
My patio pavers in Smoke Rise are always covered in green film under the trees — will sealing stop that?
Sealing helps, but the real fix is the process. Under that heavy canopy the pavers stay damp, so we soft wash off the algae and moss, let everything dry fully, re-sand the joints with polymeric sand, then seal. The sealer makes the surface harder for new growth to grab, but it won't hold on unsealed, dirty pavers — the prep is what makes it last through Kinnelon's shade.
Will polymeric sand hold up on my sloped driveway apron with the salt and plowing every winter?
Yes, and it matters more on a slope. On the graded aprons off Kinnelon Road and the hilltop lots, runoff and freeze-thaw are what blow out regular sand. Polymeric sand hardens in the joints so it resists both the water washing it out and the ice pushing pavers apart. We do recommend a wax or nylon plow shoe over pavers, and we can time the seal so it cures well before the first hard freeze.
How often do I need to reseal, and when's the best time to do it in Kinnelon?
Plan on every 3 to 5 years for most residential pavers, sooner if they get full sun or heavy traffic. The best window here is late spring through early fall — you need a stretch of dry, warm days for the sand to set and the sealer to cure. We avoid sealing right under peak pollen drop or leaf fall, since that debris can get trapped in the finish. Book a spring or early-summer slot and we'll clean off the winter salt and tannin at the same time.
How much does paver sealing cost in NJ?
Most patios and driveways run about $1.50–$3.50 per square foot depending on condition and sealer. 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.
