Lee S, a homeowner in the WildBlue community of Fort Myers, first heard about Perfect Paver Co. from her good friend and neighbor, Todd. After seeing the results of Todd’s project, she called Casey—our foreman who had worked on Todd’s home—to restore her own paver driveway.
Although the driveway was only a couple of years old, it was already showing signs of wear. Shade from nearby trees and mulch beds created the perfect conditions for mold and algae buildup. To make matters worse, just before our arrival, a contractor planting a new tree drove a skid steer across the driveway—leaving behind deep black tire marks.
Casey, who handled both the estimate and the work, walked Lee through what to expect and then delivered exactly that. The driveway was steam cleaned, new polymeric sand was installed in the joints, and the entire surface was sealed for long-lasting protection.
The tire marks from the skid steer were one of Lee’s biggest concerns. Casey explained they might not fully come out, but he treated the stains carefully—and to Lee’s delight, the marks disappeared completely. Her driveway looked brand new again.
Lee shared her experience in a five-star review:
“We hired Perfect Paver Co. from our neighbor’s recommendation to pressure wash, resand and seal our driveway. It looks gorgeous. Communication was great from day 1 of getting this job scheduled and completed. Casey and John were professional and a pleasure to work with. We’re thrilled and would highly recommend Perfect Paver Co.” — Lee Stratton
What began as a referral turned into another thrilled client. With the mold removed, joints stabilized, the surface sealed, and the unexpected tire marks erased, Lee’s driveway is now protected and beautiful for years to come.
If your paver driveway is showing signs of mold, algae, fading, or staining, it may be time for a professional restoration. Our proven process of steam cleaning, polymeric sand installation, and sealing can bring pavers back to life while protecting them for years to come.

Travertine is beautiful, cool underfoot, and a favorite for patios and pool decks. One of the most common questions we hear is:
“Can I fill the holes in my outdoor travertine?”
The short answer: yes, you can—but we don’t recommend it. Here’s why.
Travertine is a type of limestone formed naturally with air and water pockets. When it’s cut into tiles, those pockets are exposed as pits or voids. These aren’t defects—they’re part of the stone’s natural character and actually improve traction underfoot.
Indoors, filling can make sense. But outdoors, filling usually leads to problems:
Discoloration – fillers weather differently in sun, rain, and pool water.
Maintenance – they often pop out in freeze–thaw cycles.
Safety – filling reduces the stone’s natural texture, making wet surfaces more slippery.
The best way to keep outdoor travertine looking good is through proper care, not filler. We recommend:
Deep cleaning to remove dirt, algae, and buildup from the pores.
Correct joint sand (for sand-set systems) for stability and drainage.
Water-based penetrating sealer to enhance color, protect against stains, and preserve traction.
Not if the right product is used. A penetrating sealer soaks into the stone instead of forming a film on top. It protects the surface while keeping the natural, slip-resistant texture.
Technically, yes—you can fill larger pits. But expect ongoing maintenance, color mismatch, and patches that pop out over time. Most homeowners are happier embracing the natural look outdoors.
If your travertine is looking tired, uneven, or discolored, professional cleaning and sealing is the safest way to restore it. Perfect Paver Co. specializes in paver and natural stone care across Ohio, Indiana, Georgia, and Florida.

Hey, it’s Mark with Perfect Paver Co here in the Boca Raton area. I wanted to discuss the question, should I seal my newly installed pavers or should I seal my pavers that were just installed? So this is a customer who just recently had these pavers installed maybe six months ago. They probably could have had us here a little bit sooner, but they’re doing the right thing and that’s getting them sealed early. Now a lot of people think that sealing pavers is more of an aesthetic improvement. You know, it’s kind of like cars. For example. The main purpose of a car is for transportation. The beauty of the car, how you look in the car, that’s secondary. When it comes to sealing pavers, most people think that sealing them is just for aesthetics. The aesthetics is the secondary reason why you seal. The most important reason you want to seal your pavers when they’re newly installed is to protect them, protect the color, protect the surface from deteriorating.
As soon as you install pavers, the dyes and pigments that give the paver color start deteriorating from the sun’s UV rays that’s hitting them. Especially here in south Florida, you’re really gonna lose your color quick. So the sealer that we apply on pavers when they’re new acts like sunblock to the paver. It’s going to protect the paver from the sun soaking out the color. It’s also going to put a nice coat of protection on the paver that prevents the acid in the rain, and the deteriorating effect from the rain constantly pelting the surface.
So, it’s very important to seal your pavers right away. Now we suggest maybe waiting 30 to 60 days, to let the rain really hit it, and wash off the construction debris, let that stone sit and breathe a little bit. But at that 60 day point, its ready to be sealed. So today, we’re going to be doing a light clean on this project, install polymeric sand and seal it.
You can see these pavers are starting to get some mold growth already occurring in the joints. So we’re going to steam clean it. We’re going to be getting all of that organic build-up out of the joints. We use steam because steam is actually one of the only effective ways at killing mold. Bleach does not kill mold. Chlorine does not kill mold. Bleach and chlorine simply remove the leaf from the microscopic mold spore and leaves the spore still intact to grow back. So the only effective way to kill the mold spore is with very hot water, which is why we steam clean, or with acid. And actually, when we finish your project, we’re going to be giving you some aftercare instructions on how to maintain your pavers with the usage of a special high acidity level white vinegar.
So that’s that. But, it’s extremely important. Seal your pavers right away. Seal for the right reasons. It’s going to look, you know, enhanced when we’re done, assuming you go with our wet look sealer. And in fact, a lot of people are choosing not to seal their pavers because they don’t want them to look wet, they don’t want them to look glossy. And that’s okay too. You still need to protect them. We can use a natural look sealer, and it’s not going to change the way the paver looks, but the pavers are going to be protected. Your investment is going to be protected and they’re going to stay looking great for a long time. So again, Mark with Perfect Paver Co.
