Fountain Hills homes are defined by dramatic desert topography — hillside lots with sweeping views, outdoor living areas built into the terrain, and hardscape surfaces that work with the natural landscape. Travertine is the dominant pool deck and patio material here, favored for its natural look and cooler surface temperature underfoot. But Fountain Hills' hillside environment creates unique challenges for paver surfaces: drainage from sloped lots accelerates joint sand erosion, seasonal runoff deposits mineral stains on lower patio areas, and the community's elevation means pavers experience more freeze-thaw cycling than lower-elevation Phoenix suburbs. Without professional sealing, even premium travertine deteriorates visibly within a few years in this environment.
Blues Home Services provides complete paver restoration for Fountain Hills properties — from a single travertine pool deck to full-property hardscape sealing. Our restoration process starts with thorough pressure washing at paver-appropriate pressures, followed by targeted efflorescence and mineral stain treatment, polymeric jointing sand installation in all joints, and two-coat commercial-grade sealer application. For travertine, we apply professional penetrating sealers that protect the stone from the inside without changing its natural appearance or texture. For concrete and manufactured pavers, we use topical sealers that enhance color and provide a moisture-resistant surface. Every sealer we use is UV-stabilized for Arizona's intense solar environment.
What's Included
- Complete paver surface deep cleaning and pressure washing
- Targeted efflorescence, mineral stain & calcium deposit treatment
- Cracked and shifted paver assessment with recommendations
- Polymeric jointing sand installation in all paver joints
- Two-coat commercial-grade UV-stable sealer application
- Material-matched sealer selection (travertine penetrating, concrete topical)
- Final surface inspection and cure-time guidance
Our Process
We inspect all paver surfaces, identify material types, note cracked or shifted pavers, and assess joint sand condition, drainage patterns, and staining type before work begins.
All paver surfaces are pressure washed at the appropriate PSI for the material, removing algae, mineral deposits, efflorescence, and degraded joint sand.
Pavers must be fully dry before sealer application — typically 24-48 hours in Arizona's dry climate. We schedule around this requirement.
Polymeric jointing sand is swept into all joints, tamped, and activated with water to form a weed-resistant, moisture-blocking bond throughout the paver field.
Material-matched commercial-grade sealer applied in two thin coats for complete, even coverage. Allow 24 hours for foot traffic; 72 hours for vehicle traffic.
Fountain Hills paver surfaces sealed with commercial-grade UV-stable sealers maintain their protection for 2-3 years under normal conditions. Hillside pool decks and high-traffic patio areas may benefit from resealing every 1-2 years due to drainage exposure and wear.
