Paver maintenance options are available in a large variety of materials and can significantly improve the curb appeal of both residential and commercial buildings. They can be used to pave parking lots, driveways, outdoor steps, and pathways. They are both ornamental and practical. In addition, they can be utilized for pool decks, driveways, patios, outdoor living areas, landscaping, and retaining walls. Many hardscaping projects can be finished in an attractive fashion with stone, concrete, granite, and brick pavers.
PAVER MAINTENANCE TIPS
These are the most important steps that owners of homes and businesses should take to protect their investments and maintain the aesthetic appeal of their paver surfaces. At Ducon Outdoor Living, we think that pavers of all ages may be rejuvenated. We are aware of the significant influence pavers have on your garden’s overall aesthetic. Not only do they offer routes, but they also serve as the starting point for treasured moments, such as a leisurely stroll in the afternoon, an exuberant BBQ, or a calm night spent beneath the stars.
We set out on a quest to discover the untapped potential of your old pavers in this catalog. We are aware of how important it is to maintain their attractiveness and how they may improve your outdoor area. For this reason, depending on the issue at hand, we have carefully crafted a selection of packages and solutions to treat the ravages of time and restore the appeal of your garden.
Maintenance of Pavers
Your outdoor pavers may suffer damage over time from foot traffic, environmental factors, and general wear and tear. Your garden’s once-immaculate and endearing features may eventually lose their shine due to aging, accumulated dirt, and difficult stains. But the tale doesn’t stop there. The Easy Clean package from Ducon is intended for annual, preventive paver maintenance and upkeep. This package includes two necessary procedures, Soft Wash (Shampoo) and Sanitizer, which are specifically designed to maintain the beauty of your pavers.
With an average duration of three hours, this package is perfect for relatively young projects up to a year old. It can completely change your outside environment in a single day. We make use of Ducon’s dependable Hardscape Sanitizer and Hardscape Shampoo to guarantee that your paver maintenance continue to look beautiful and welcoming year after year. Allow us to assist you in effortlessly maintaining the classic charm of your garden. The best way to revitalize outdoor areas that have been used for more than a year is with our Deep Clean Package. We use the Easy Clean method, which entails thorough sanitization and shampooing, in this extensive one-day service to make sure every nook and cranny is immaculate.
Not only that, but we also go above and above by treating even the most difficult stains, such as rust, gum, rubber, grease, oil, paint, and fluorescents, as well as organic marks. We meticulously fill the spaces between the pavers with sand to improve stability and prevent weed development after careful treatment and thorough cleaning. This gives your outside area a clean, updated appearance. You may claim this package once every three years. The all-inclusive answer you require to give your concrete paver maintenance new life is our Restoration package.
This three-day project covers everything from sanitization and soft washing to treating, rinsing, sand filling, and coating, making sure that every detail of the restoration of your pavers is carefully taken care of. Over time, concrete paver maintenance may develop stains, grime buildup, or a lack of joint sand. In addition to fixing these flaws, our restoration package fortifies the pavers with a protective layer, restoring their natural shine and guaranteeing their durability. Receive this package whenever you want to see your outdoor area transformed.
The two crucial steps in our resurfacing package are grinding and curling, which both result in a sealing coating to protect the freshly resurfaced pavers. The Natural Grinded Finish produces a smoother, more even surface by successfully removing flaws, stains, and unevenness. In the meantime, the Polished Finish goes one step further, refining the ground surface to an even higher degree of gloss and smoothness, guaranteeing that your pavers will appear flawless and stand the test of time.

Oxidation Remover
Oxidation can be a common culprit behind discoloration on various concrete paver surfaces. Ducon’s Oxidation Remover is expertly designed to combat discoloration and stains stemming from the oxidation process on specific paver surfaces, including rust and other blemishes. Oxidation can also leave behind an unattractive white, chalky residue that worsens over time, acquiring a brownish tint due to water runoff and accumulated dirt.

Say goodbye to stubborn stains and hello to pristine perfection with this easy-to-use solution.
Silica Sand
This is a granular material composed of fine grains of quartz, making it an excellent choice for stabilizing paver joints and promoting proper drainage. This is applied in loose grains without any polymer binder.
Sand Filling is an essential step in maintaining concrete pavers after sealing. It involves filling the joints between the pavers with sand to improve stability, prevent shifting, and inhibit weed growth.
