Sealing Outdoor Granite – Why It Matters and How to Choose the Right Sealer

Granite is a strong natural stone and a great choice for driveways, patios, and paths—but it still needs protection. Even though granite lasts long, it’s slightly porous, meaning it can soak up water, oil, and grime over time.

That’s why sealing your granite with the right product helps keep it clean, strong, and looking its best for years.

Why Should You Seal Outdoor Granite?

Outdoor granite faces harsh weather, constant foot traffic, and everyday dirt that can dull its finish or cause lasting stains.

Using a quality granite sealer helps to:

✔ Block water, oil, and grime from sinking into the surface
✔ Stop moss, algae, and lichen from growing in damp spots
✔ Prevent frost damage during cold months by keeping water out
✔ Make cleaning quicker and easier by reducing stain absorption
✔ Keep the natural colour and texture fresh without fading or dullness

Leaving granite unsealed lets moisture in, which leads to stains, algae, and eventually cracks or surface wear.

Is Sealing Granite Easy to Do?

Yes—most homeowners can seal granite themselves with the right tools and a little care.

Follow these simple steps:

• Clean and dry the surface before sealing.
• Apply the sealer evenly with a sprayer, roller, or brush.
• Let it soak and cure as recommended before using the area again.
• You should reseal granite every 12 to 18 months, depending on how much traffic and weather it handles.

How to Choose the Right Granite Sealer?

We offer both solvent-based and water-based sealers—each with its own benefits depending on the stone and location.

Solvent-Based Sealer:

✔ Soaks deeper for maximum protection
✔ Ideal for busy or damp areas like driveways or BBQ zones

Water-Based Sealer:

✔ Safer for the environment
✔ Lets the stone breathe while still providing solid protection

Pick a Finish That Matches Your Style

🔹 Matt Finish – Enhances colour with a smooth, low-sheen surface
