With the application of a quality paving sealer to your paving patio flags, slabs or brick paving you can preserve and protect your paving for many years to come, making your paving virtually maintenance free. Paving sealers are a surface applied liquid that come in two main types.
Polyurethane and acrylic sealer. They are both available in solvent and water based formulas. Water based paving sealers are the more eco friendly choice, although they do take longer to dry.
Paving sealers help prevent the growth of weeds, moss and algae. In block paving they stop the loss of paving sand and loss of colour.
They apply a clear protective coating to the surface of the paving thus stopping contaminates from penetrating the surface of the paved area.
Paving sealants can be applied to most types of paving including concrete, pattern imprinted concrete, tiles, stone and concrete slabs. Once applied paving sealer makes engine oil and food stains easy to clean off your paving and makes your paving easier to keep clean.
Paving sealer can also help the surface be anti-slip, Although you should always check with the paving sealer manufacturer that the paving sealant is anti-slip as in some cases an anti-slip grit has to be mixed with the paving sealer prior to application of the sealer.
