The short answer
Paver sealing in Cape Coral runs $1.50–$3.00 per square foot for a full clean, re-sand and seal. A typical driveway comes to $1,100–$2,900 and a pool deck to $1,600–$3,600.
The rate covers the whole job, not just the sealer: pressure cleaning, mold and algae treatment, polymeric sand swept into every joint, and two coats of sealer. Those are the pieces a cheap quote drops, so the comparison below is worth reading before you pick one.
Every figure here is a researched market range for Cape Coral and Lee County, not an offer. Paver sealing is priced on measured area and the condition of what is already down, so your price comes from the on-site measure and is given to you in writing.
By the square foot
| Work | Per sq ft | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Clean, re-sand & seal | $1.50–$3.00 | The standard job, two coats |
| Premium sealer & full re-sand | $2.50–$4.00 | Higher-grade product, heavier sand |
| Pool deck | $1.75–$3.00 | Slip-rated sealer, more edge work |
| Stripping failed sealer | $1.00–$2.50 | Added on top, quoted separately |
By the job
| Area | Typical size | Typical total |
|---|---|---|
| Driveway | 600–1,200 sq ft | $1,100–$2,900 |
| Pool deck | 800–1,400 sq ft | $1,600–$3,600 |
| Lanai or patio | 300–700 sq ft | $650–$1,500 |
| Walkway or entry | 80–200 sq ft | $180–$500 |
| Driveway + walkway together | Varies | Usually cheaper than booking twice |
Measure the area yourself if you want a rough figure before anyone comes out: length times width, and add the walkway if you want it done at the same time. Most people are within a hundred square feet of the real number.
What moves the price
Condition, more than size
Pavers washed two years ago clean up fast. Pavers that have never been touched, with black spotting and weeds through every joint, take two or three times the prep. The sealing is the quick part.
Whether anything is already on there
This is the big one. A paver that has been sealed before and has gone cloudy, flaky or white has to be stripped first, at $1.00–$2.50 per square foot on top. The old coat comes off first so the new sealer bonds properly.
How much sand is missing
Joints that have washed out need far more polymeric sand, and it is not a cheap material. Open joints after years of rain are normal here; they just change the number.
Pool decks cost more than driveways
Per square foot, a pool deck runs $1.75–$3.00 against $1.50–$3.00 for a driveway. There is more edge work, more masking, and the sealer has to be slip-rated rather than whatever is cheapest.
Access
A gated courtyard, a screened lanai or a deck you can only reach through the house all add time. None of it is a problem, it just belongs on the quote.
What a quote from us includes
- Pressure cleaning at the right pressure for your paver type
- Treatment for mold, algae and the black spotting that washing alone leaves behind
- Polymeric sand swept into every joint and set
- Two coats of sealer in the finish you chose
- Masking and protection for plants, screens and pool water
- A walk through with you before we leave
One figure, written down, approved before we start. Stripping, if you need it, is quoted as its own line so you can see exactly what it costs.
How often you will pay it
Every two to three years in this climate. That sounds frequent until you price re-laying a driveway whose joints have washed out and whose surface has gone chalky, and sealing is the cheap end of the choice, and a sealed driveway that gets rinsed occasionally will outlast an unsealed one by many years.

What does paver sealing cost per square foot in Cape Coral?
A full clean, re-sand and seal runs $1.50 to $3.00 per square foot. Premium work, with a high-end sealer and full polymeric re-sanding, runs $2.50 to $4.00. Pool decks sit a little higher at $1.75 to $3.00 because the prep and the product are both more demanding.
What does a typical driveway come to?
A standard Cape Coral driveway of 600 to 1,200 square feet lands at $1,100 to $2,900 including cleaning, re-sanding and two coats of sealer.
Why is stripping old sealer charged separately?
Because it is a separate job. Taking off a failed solvent sealer adds $1.00 to $2.50 per square foot. On a 1,000 square foot driveway that is $1,000 to $2,500 of work before any new product goes down. Hiding it inside a square-foot rate is how quotes get doubled on the day.
Is a cheaper quote per square foot actually cheaper?
Only if it covers the same work. The usual gaps are polymeric sand swapped for plain sand or skipped entirely, one coat instead of two, no mold treatment, and no allowance for stripping what is already there.
Do you charge for the quote?
No. We come out, measure the area, look at the paver type and the joints, and leave you a written price. It does not change afterwards.
Does the price change if it rains?
No, but the date might. Sealer needs dry pavers and a dry cure window, so we move a job rather than seal into a storm. The price you approved stands.

If anything already down there has failed, we will show you and quote the stripping as its own line rather than folding it into a rate.
