Pressure Washing & Paver Sealing in Merritt Island, FL
Serving North, Central, and South Merritt Island — from the Banana River waterfront to the Tropical Trail estates.
Opening — Caring for your Merritt Island property
Merritt Island homes face a set of exterior cleaning challenges that are uniquely intense even by Brevard County standards. The island sits between the Indian River Lagoon and the Banana River, which means salt-heavy air wraps around properties from both sides. Homes along North Tropical Trail, South Tropical Trail, North Banana River Drive, and the canal communities off Sykes Creek see the worst of it — salt film on windows, accelerated mildew on stucco, black algae streaking on roofs, and paver driveways that fade faster than comparable properties on the mainland.
Renew & Restore Exterior Cleaning has worked across Merritt Island from the north end near Kennedy Space Center and the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge down to the South Tropical Trail estates and the tip of the island at Dragon Point. We’re fully licensed and insured, family-owned, and based right here in Brevard County. Whether you’re in a canal-front home in Surfside Estates, a mid-century ranch in Newfound Harbor, or a waterfront estate along South Tropical Trail, we bring the same careful, locally-tuned approach.
Our services in Merritt Island
Paver Sealing
Water-based paver sealer with color enhancement available. Merritt Island driveways take a beating from salt air — our sealer creates a barrier against salt intrusion while stabilizing joint sand against the heavy rains that sweep across the island during summer afternoons.
Pressure Washing & Driveway Cleaning
Concrete driveways, brick paver driveways, pool decks, patios, seawalls, and dock surfaces. For homes on the water we’re especially careful with runoff — our cleaning solutions are biodegradable and we manage the wash path so nothing reaches the canal or the river untreated.
Roof Cleaning (Soft Wash for Shingle & Tile)
Both asphalt shingle and barrel tile roofs are common on Merritt Island, and each needs a different approach. For shingles we use soft-wash low-pressure treatment — the only method asphalt manufacturers approve. For tile roofs we use walkboards to distribute weight and avoid tile cracking, with a specialized cleaning solution that kills algae and lichen without staining the tile.
House Washing
Stucco, vinyl, Hardie board, and painted wood all respond to our soft-wash house washing approach. Merritt Island homes see particularly heavy salt film buildup on the sides facing the Banana River — we knock that back and restore the original finish without risk to the siding or landscaping.
Neighborhoods and areas we serve on Merritt Island
We cover all of Merritt Island from north to south. In North Merritt Island, we work the established neighborhoods off North Courtenay Parkway, the subdivisions along North Tropical Trail near Kelly Park, and the canal-front communities of Surfside Estates, Vetter Isles, Holiday Cove, and Island Crossings off North Banana River Drive. In Central Merritt Island — which is where about half the island’s population lives — we cover the homes and condos along State Road 520, the Merritt Island 520 corridor, and the Newfound Harbor peninsula south of 520.
In South Merritt Island we regularly work the Merritt Ridge, Bel Air, and Island Beach subdivisions along with the established homes along South Tropical Trail toward Mathers Bridge, the Savannahs Golf Course communities, and the river-to-river estates where properties have frontage on both the Indian and Banana Rivers. We also serve the Hilltop Manor neighborhood near Honeymoon Lake.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work on waterfront homes along the Banana River and Indian River?
Yes — waterfront properties are a major part of our Merritt Island work. Homes along North Banana River Drive, South Tropical Trail, North Tropical Trail, and the canal-front subdivisions in Surfside Estates, Vetter Isles, and Holiday Cove are regular stops for us. We use biodegradable cleaning solutions, carefully control runoff, and pre-rinse landscaping before and after. For homes with docks and seawalls, we offer separate cleaning for those surfaces — removing the algae and slime that builds up at the water line without damaging the wood, concrete, or composite.
What’s different about cleaning a Merritt Island roof?
The salt-heavy air between the Indian River and Banana River makes Merritt Island one of the fastest-growing environments in Brevard for roof algae. Gloeocapsa magma appears faster and spreads further than on inland properties. For asphalt shingle roofs we use soft washing — low pressure with a specialized cleaning solution that kills the algae at the root. For the barrel tile and flat tile roofs common in South Merritt Island and Newfound Harbor, we use walkboards to distribute weight and avoid cracking tiles, with a tile-safe cleaning solution. We never pressure wash tile or shingle roofs — the pressure strips granules or cracks tiles.
How much does paver sealing cost on Merritt Island?
Paver sealing on Merritt Island typically runs $600 to $1,800 for standard residential driveways and patios, depending on square footage, paver condition, and whether old failed sealer needs stripping. Waterfront properties sometimes need an additional salt-rinse step before sealing because of the salt film buildup — that adds about $100 to $200. Estate properties along South Tropical Trail or the river-to-river lots can run higher simply because there’s more square footage to seal. We always give the full number in writing after an on-site walkthrough, and we stand behind the quote — no surprise add-ons during the job.
Can you clean pool decks and pool cages?
Yes. Pool deck cleaning is a core Merritt Island service — algae and mildew grow fast around pools in our climate, and the result is slippery surfaces and a cloudy-looking deck even when the pool itself is spotless. We clean travertine, concrete, brick paver, and flagstone pool decks. We also clean pool cage screens and frames — mildew and the pink algae staining that builds up on screens responds well to a low-pressure soft wash. For screens that are past cleaning (torn or permanently stained), we can tell you honestly whether cleaning is worth it or whether replacement makes more sense.
Do you seal travertine pavers around my pool?
Yes. Travertine is a porous natural stone that should be sealed every 1 to 2 years in Florida, especially around pool decks where chlorine and saltwater exposure is constant. We use sealers specifically formulated for travertine that don’t make the surface slippery when wet — slip resistance is critical around pools. Travertine is common in the newer Merritt Island builds along North Tropical Trail and in the upscale South Merritt Island developments. If you’re not sure whether your pool deck is travertine, concrete, or flagstone, we’ll identify it during the estimate and recommend the right sealer type.
Can you handle large estate properties on South Tropical Trail?
Yes. The estates along South Tropical Trail — including the river-to-river properties and the larger lots approaching Mathers Bridge — require planning but are well within our capability. Larger jobs usually mean two days of work: one day for cleaning and one day for sealing or final treatment. We bring the truck-mounted equipment and water-holding capacity needed for estate-scale jobs. For properties over half an acre of hardscape, we typically recommend phased maintenance — a full initial cleaning and sealing, then lighter touch-up work every 12–18 months to keep everything looking right without a full reseal each time.
How long before the sealer dries and we can use the driveway?
Our water-based paver sealer is walkable in 2–3 hours and drivable in 24 hours. We always recommend staying off freshly-sealed pavers for a full 48 hours if you can — especially with vehicles — to let the sealer fully cure. If you need driveway access sooner, tell us during the estimate and we’ll plan the sealing schedule around your timing. For pool decks, we recommend staying off for 24 hours. We’ll place caution tape after sealing as a visual reminder.
Do you service the newer north-end communities like Island Crossings?
Yes. Island Crossings, the Pulte-built community at the north end of North Banana River Drive near Kelly Park, is a regular service area for us along with the surrounding Surfside Estates, Vetter Isles, and Holiday Cove subdivisions. These homes — built mostly between 1996 and 2000 — are now at the age where original pavers often need their first or second reseal, and roof cleanings are becoming important to protect the shingles. Same for the homes along North Courtenay Parkway and the communities near the Ulumay Wildlife Sanctuary off Sykes Creek Parkway.
