Hiring an Insured, Reliable Paver Contractor
Ask for the same few things from every company. A good one answers each question without hesitating.
What should I ask a contractor to show me?
Anyone working on your driveway or pool deck is a guest on your property, so a few answers up front are reasonable. Each item below is quick to request. Questions? Call (904) 541-9860.
A certificate of insurance
Ask for a current general liability certificate. If a crew damages a screen or a garage door, the claim should not land on you.
Any license that applies
Ask which state license or local registration covers the work, and what the company holds in Duval County.
A real way to reach them
A working phone, a named person who handles your job and a company that covers Jacksonville's Southside.
A price in writing
The quote should list the cleaning, the joint sand and the sealer, with the area measured in square feet.
How does licensing work for paver sealing in Florida?
The rules depend on the work. Washing and sealing are treated differently from building or rebuilding a paver surface, and Florida businesses generally carry a local business tax receipt where they operate. If your job includes leveling or relaying pavers, ask which license applies to that part. To start a project, get a free estimate.
Nobody has to take a promise on faith. The Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation runs a public license search, and an insurance agent can send a certificate straight to you. Call (904) 541-9860 with any question about what to check.
What sets a dependable contractor apart?
They tell you about the weather first
Sealer needs dry skies, so a good company warns you early when a storm will move the day.
They name what goes on your pavers
They can say which sealer they chose, how much covers a gallon and why it suits your surface.
They look before they quote
They check for sunken spots, old sealer and puddles, then give a number that holds.
They say what the fix is if something fails
Ask what happens when the finish clouds or peels, and hear the answer before the job starts.
