SURFACE SEALING
PERTH

We can seal a wide variety of outdoor surfaces commonly found around homes and commercial properties in Perth.

This includes exposed aggregate concrete, plain concrete, limestone, clay and concrete pavers, natural stone, brick, and tiled areas.

Sealing is also beneficial for surfaces around pools, patios, driveways, alfresco areas, and walkways.

Each surface type requires a specific type of sealer, and we select the most suitable product to ensure maximum protection and durability.

If you’re unsure whether your surface is suitable for sealing, we’re happy to assess it and provide expert advice on the best approach.

Yes, it’s vital to ensuring the job is done right.

Even if you give your surfaces a good hose down, there are still going to be many contaminants on the surface which would be trapped and impact the adhesiveness of the protective layer, were we to spray sealant over the top.

A thorough pressure washing service gets all the contaminants off your surface, enhances the look and gets it ready to apply the sealant.

Sealing provides several long-term benefits. It helps prevent staining from oil, food, wine, rust, and other substances that can otherwise be absorbed by porous surfaces.

It also protects against water penetration, which can lead to erosion or cracking over time, especially in freeze-thaw environments. In Perth’s climate, UV exposure is another major concern — sealing can help reduce fading and colour loss caused by prolonged sun exposure.

On top of that, sealed surfaces are easier to clean and maintain, as dirt and grime have a harder time sticking.

In many cases, sealing also enhances the surface visually, bringing out natural colours and giving it a fresh, revitalised appearance.

The longevity of a surface sealer depends on several factors, including the type of sealer used, the surface material, the level of traffic or use, and exposure to the elements.

Generally, solvent-based sealers tend to last between five and seven years, while water-based sealers may need to be reapplied more frequently like three to five years.

High-traffic areas such as driveways or commercial walkways may experience wear sooner than shaded patios or garden paths.

At Resurfaced Cleaning & Sealing, we use premium-grade sealers that are designed for long-lasting performance, and we’ll provide tailored advice on how often resealing is recommended based on your specific surface.

Yes, sealing can subtly or significantly change the look of your surface, depending on the type of sealer you choose. Clear sealers are available in both natural and enhanced finishes.

A natural finish preserves the original look with minimal change, while an enhanced or “wet look” finish deepens the colour and gives a slightly glossy appearance.

We also offer tinted or coloured sealing solutions for clients who want to alter the colour of their concrete or pavers completely.

This is a popular option for revitalising faded areas or updating the look of an outdoor space.

During your consultation, we’ll show you finish options and help you choose a look that suits your style and property.

Some sealers can become slippery when wet, particularly those with a glossy or wet-look finish.

However, we can apply a non-slip additive to the sealer during application, which improves traction and makes the surface safer underfoot.

This is especially recommended for pool surrounds, patios, stairs, and other areas where slipping may be a concern.

The non-slip finish blends into the surface and doesn’t detract from the overall appearance.

If safety is a priority, just let us know, and we’ll ensure the sealer used offers both protection and peace of mind.

The sealing process begins with a thorough assessment of your surface to determine its condition and the most suitable sealing product.

If needed, we will advise you to have the surface professionally cleaned first to ensure it is free from dirt, oil, mould, or old sealer. Once the surface is dry and ready, we apply the sealer using a roller or spray system for even coverage.

Depending on the product, one or more coats may be applied. The surface then needs to dry and cure — typically 24 hours for light foot traffic, and up to 48 hours before vehicles or heavy use.

We’ll give you clear instructions on how to care for the area during this period to ensure the best results.

Maintaining a sealed surface is relatively simple. Routine sweeping or rinsing with a garden hose will help keep dust and debris from accumulating.

For general cleaning, a mild detergent and water are usually sufficient.

Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbing tools, as these can wear down the sealer prematurely.

It’s also a good idea to clean up spills quickly, especially oil or acidic substances like wine or vinegar.

While the sealer provides a layer of protection, no product can make a surface completely stain-proof.

With proper care and occasional resealing, your outdoor areas will remain protected and looking great for many years.

There are a few signs that your surface may be due for resealing.

If water no longer beads on the surface and instead absorbs quickly, it’s a sign that the protective layer has worn off.

You may also notice the colour starting to fade, the surface feeling rougher to the touch, or an increase in staining and dirt retention.

If it’s been more than a few years since the last sealing, it’s a good idea to schedule a professional inspection.

At Resurfaced, we can assess the condition of your sealed surfaces and let you know if resealing is needed, along with a no-obligation quote.

The cost of sealing varies based on several factors, including the size of the area, the type of surface, the condition of the surface, and the type of sealer selected.

In general, sealing is a cost-effective investment that can prevent more expensive repairs down the track.

We provide transparent, fixed quotes tailored to your specific project, with no hidden charges.

During your free consultation, we’ll assess your surface, recommend the best sealing approach, and give you an accurate cost breakdown.

Our goal is to offer great value and long-lasting results that leave your outdoor areas both protected and beautifully finished.
