Why Should You Seal Your Stone?

While natural stone is incredibly durable, it's not immune to the effects of time and use. Outdoor stone surfaces face deterioration from harsh weather conditions like freeze/thaw cycles, rain, ice, and UV light. Both indoor and outdoor stone can also show signs of wear from foot traffic and spills.

Sealing your stone surfaces extends their lifespan by protecting them from this damage. The sealer attaches to the stone, creating a barrier that repels water and other liquids. It also guards against UV damage and fading, and reduces wear and tear from constant foot traffic, keeping your stone looking new for longer.

In short, sealing stone helps to:

Prevent staining from spills and everyday use.

Protect against damage from weathering, freeze/thaw cycles, and abrasion.

Reduce overall wear and tear.

Enhance the natural beauty of the stone by highlighting its colors and patterns.

How Long Does Stone Sealer Last?

The lifespan of a stone sealer varies based on several factors, including the sealer's quality, the type and porosity of the stone, whether it's indoors or outdoors, and the amount of use it receives. Generally, most high-quality stone sealers last:

1–2 years for outdoor surfaces.

1-3 years for indoor surfaces.

Keep in mind that surfaces exposed to more extreme elements or heavy use will likely need to be re-sealed more frequently. For example, an outdoor patio in direct sunlight and harsh temperatures will require more frequent sealing than an indoor stone floor. Similarly, a frequently used kitchen countertop will likely need more regular sealing than one used only occasionally.

Our Stone Sealing Services in San Diego

Every type of stone requires a specific sealing approach. Proper sealing isn't just about applying the sealer; it's also about the application technique. At San Diego Granite & Stone Sealing, our expert technicians understand the differences between water-based and solvent-based sealers and know which is best for your specific stone type, its exposure to wear and elements, and whether it has a natural or polished finish.

When we visit your home or business for a stone sealing project, we'll thoroughly assess your stone surface and its condition. This allows us to determine the ideal sealer (such as a water-based, solvent-based, or penetrating sealer) and the most effective application process. We're proud to be the exclusive San Diego installers of LotusCoat™ and ReFresh™ stone protection products. We'll also provide clear instructions on the necessary curing time before you can use the surface and offer guidance on ongoing stone care to ensure its lasting beauty.
