Looking for gum removal for pavers in Beebe, AR? We look at the surface first, choose the right method and pressure for it, and give you a price before any work starts. For pavers, that means pressure wash with a surface cleaner.
The right method for the job
Cleaning solution: A paver cleaner or pre-treatment; efflorescence needs a dedicated cleaner.
Caring for pavers
Cleaning concrete and brick pavers removes weeds, moss and stains, but some joint sand washes out with them. Re-sanding the joints, often with polymeric sand, and sealing afterward keeps weeds and ants out and holds the pavers in place.
Avoid: A narrow tip aimed into the joints, which blows out sand and can loosen pavers.
How often: Clean every 1-2 years; reseal every 2-4 years.
