When we handle oil stain removal for pavers in Arizona, it comes down to three things: protecting your plants and property, cleaning with the right method, and walking the job with you at the end. With pavers, the right approach is pressure wash with a surface cleaner.
The right method for the job
Cleaning solution: A paver cleaner or pre-treatment; efflorescence needs a dedicated cleaner.
What to know about cleaning pavers
Cleaning concrete and brick pavers removes weeds, moss and stains, but some joint sand washes out with them. Re-sanding the joints, often with polymeric sand, and sealing afterward keeps weeds and ants out and holds the pavers in place.
Avoid: A narrow tip aimed into the joints, which blows out sand and can loosen pavers.
How often: Clean every 1-2 years; reseal every 2-4 years.

Do you use high pressure for oil stain removal for pavers?
For pavers: usually 1,500-3,000 PSI with a surface cleaner, adjusted to keep joint sand in place where possible. What we avoid: a narrow tip aimed into the joints, which blows out sand and can loosen pavers. We keep the pressure even and controlled, with the right tools for the surface.
Is oil stain removal for pavers safe for my plants and pets?
We pre-wet plants and lawns, keep cleaning solutions diluted to what the surface needs, and rinse landscaping again when we finish. Keep pets and children inside until surfaces are rinsed and dry.
How often should I schedule oil stain removal for pavers?
Clean every 1-2 years; reseal every 2-4 years. Shade, nearby trees, humidity and heavy traffic mean more frequent cleaning; sunny, dry spots can go longer. Our free cleaning frequency tool gives a recommendation for your climate.
What if it rains on the day?
Light rain doesn't stop most washing, but heavy rain, high wind, lightning and freezing temperatures do, and sealers and stains need dry weather to cure. If the weather isn't right, we reschedule at no charge. Our work is backed by a satisfaction guarantee.
