Yet many homeowners avoid their outdoor spaces because the pavers are broken, stained, uneven or unstable. The good news? Professional paver restoration services can transform your hardscapes from an embarrassing eyesore into a stunning outdoor oasis that looks better than new.
What Happens During Professional Paver Restoration?
Professional paver restoration is far more comprehensive than a simple pressure wash. Since 2011, Paver Rescue’s trained and certified technicians have used a proven 5-step process to maintain and restore tens of thousands of stone pavers across the country, and companies like Long Island’s Paver Savers follow similar methodologies.

Long Island’s Climate Challenges
For Long Island homeowners, paver restoration is particularly crucial due to the region’s harsh climate conditions. Long Island’s climate is particularly brutal on pavers. Our humid summers create perfect conditions for algae and mold growth, while harsh winter freeze-thaw cycles crack and damage surfaces. Heavy spring rains wash away protective joint sand, and coastal winds constantly deposit salt and debris that stain and corrode.
While pavers are so commonly used on Long Island, there used to be a shortage of companies that provided professional maintenance and restoration for hardscapes made of these materials. We started Paver Savers to answer the needs of Nassau and Suffolk County property owners and preserve the aesthetics and durability of their hardscapes.
Professional vs. DIY: Why Expertise Matters
Many homeowners attempt DIY restoration, but this often leads to disappointing or even damaging results. Most homeowners try pressure washing themselves, but this often causes more damage than good. Wrong pressure settings erode crucial joint sand, improper nozzles leave permanent marks on surfaces, and inadequate cleaning products leave embedded stains behind.

Our professional cleaning uses hot water systems, precisely controlled pressure, and specialized detergents that penetrate deep into paver pores. The result is thorough cleaning that doesn’t compromise structural integrity. We remove years of damaging buildup while preserving the pavers themselves, something DIY approaches rarely achieve without causing expensive damage.

The final step involves optional professional sealing to protect against future staining and weather damage. This complete approach ensures your pavers don’t just look clean today, but stay beautiful and protected for years to come.
