Address dirt, organic buildup and suitable stains with preparation matched to the material and its condition.
Cleaning, polymeric re-sanding and optional sealing for worn paver patios, walkways and entrances.

Three distinct parts of the job, explained in your estimate. You don’t have to purchase all three.
Address dirt, organic buildup and suitable stains with preparation matched to the material and its condition.
Where suitable, remove failed joint material, prepare the joints and install compatible polymeric sand to the product’s requirements.
Consider a suitable sealer after checking the paver type, old coatings, joint material and the appearance you prefer.
Freshly washed pavers can still have empty gaps, crumbling sand and places where debris collects. Joint restoration tackles the material between the pavers so the whole area looks more finished.
River City Pressure Washing assesses the paver surface, joint condition and drainage before recommending cleaning, polymeric re-sanding or compatible sealing.
Loose or sunken pavers, failing edges and drainage problems need separate repair. We identify those limits before joint work is scoped.
Joint restoration and sealing do different jobs. Your estimate explains the preparation, suitable materials and finish options for your paving.
Where suitable, failed joint material is removed and replaced with compatible polymeric sand. Preparation, joint depth, compaction, residue removal and activation all matter—not just the final sweep.
Tell us if your paving is designed to let water drain through the joints. We verify the system before recommending joint material.
You don’t need a wet, glossy look to have a well-kept patio. Choose the appearance you like, then confirm what your surface can accept.
Consider an unsealed finish or a compatible natural-look sealer with limited color change.
Manufacturer example: Gator Natural Look ↗A compatible color-enhancing or satin finish may suit some pavers. Existing coatings and slip considerations affect the choice.
Manufacturer example: Gator Satin Look ↗Product examples explain appearance options. Final selection follows assessment and a test area; these finishes are not suitable for every surface.

River City Pressure Washing assesses the surface and installation before recommending joint work or sealing.
Your estimate separates cleaning, re-sanding and optional sealing so you know which parts of the project are included.
Ask about your paversPaver type, joint width and depth, remaining sand and previous sealer help determine the approach.
Leveling, base or drainage repairs, edge-restraint repairs and paver replacement are excluded from this service.
Share access needs and areas that must stay usable. Drying and curing may require separate visits.
Old coatings, the selected joint material and your preferred appearance affect whether sealing is suitable.
Identify paver material, joint width and depth, previous sealer, drainage and whether the system is permeable.
Agree on cleaning and joint removal, protect adjacent areas and allow the drying conditions the chosen products require.
Install, compact, clear residue and activate the selected material as specified. Sweeping sand across the top is only one stage.
Apply sealing only if included and compatible. Confirm when the area can reopen and how to maintain it.
Rain, cool weather and surface moisture can change the schedule. Drying and curing may require separate visits.
Request an assessment for your home, HOA or commercial property in the Peoria area. Include your city or ZIP so we can confirm availability for this service.

No. Cleaning addresses dirt, organic buildup and suitable stains on the surface. Joint restoration addresses failed or missing material between the pavers. A patio may need one service or both; your estimate will separate the work.
A thin top-up over failed material is not a reliable restoration. We assess the remaining joint material and the depth required by the selected product. Where replacement is suitable, failed material is removed without intentionally disturbing the bedding beneath the pavers.
Existing growth and debris are addressed within the agreed preparation scope. Correctly installed joint material can help limit weed growth, but seeds and organic debris can collect again. No treatment makes a patio permanently weed-free.
No. Movement, settlement, failed edges or standing water may point to problems beneath or around the pavers. Leveling, base and drainage work, edge-restraint repairs and paver replacement are excluded from this service. Those conditions need to be resolved before suitable joint work proceeds.
No. Cleaning and suitable joint restoration can be scoped without sealing. Sealing is considered separately for your paver material, existing coating, preferred appearance and use of the area.
That depends on the product and the surface. Some sealers retain a more natural appearance; others deepen color or add sheen. We discuss compatible options and a test area before including a finish in your scope. Worn color and deep stains may remain.
Drying, temperature and rain requirements vary with the joint material, sealer and installation. Work may require separate visits. We provide project-specific instructions for walking, furniture, pets, irrigation and vehicles; rain-safe does not automatically mean ready for use.
Please tell us. Permeable systems rely on their specified open joints and aggregate to let water through. Standard polymeric sand is not the default replacement. The installed system and its maintenance requirements must be verified before a scope is offered.
Keep leaves, soil and debris from collecting in the joints, clean spills promptly with a suitable method, and follow the selected product’s care directions. Avoid aggressive washing that removes joint material. Arrange an assessment if sand erodes, pavers move or the finish changes.
Start with your location and the condition of the pavers. We’ll review the details and discuss suitability, scope and next steps.
