SEALING SPECIALISTS came in and stripped the porch sealer. It was an messy job but Robbie, owner of Sealing Specialists, was prompt and did the job as promised.
I highly recommend Sealing Specialists and would hire them again.
Rubberdek originally was hired to sealed the porch, approx. 1300 SF. Rubberdek used a defective sealer which oxidized. Rubberdek refused to honor their warranty even though it was known the sealer failed within the first month of installation.

When I called, he was quick to respond, and arrived on time to review our issues and give us a proposal.
His work is of the highest quality. He was on time to execute the repairs and sealer, and to be honest I believe our pavers look better now than when they were new. My husband, who is pickier than I am was also pleasantly surprised at the results. I think they should change their name to High Quality Sealing Specialists, because that is definitely what they provide.
Due to some medical issues my husband and I are both having, our major concern was how to get the furniture out of the way, especially, the fire pit when neither of us can lift. We were going to call in some friends, but Rob was kind enough to say that they would move the furniture (as long as they were not held liable if something broke). We agreed, and trusted that he would use care in moving things. We were right!!! He went above and beyond, and we are very grateful
We had a little issue with the tint under the gazebo, and he was quick to find a solution and make the requested change. Always with a smile.
I would definitely use this provider again, and would highly recommend him to anyone that is looking for quality results from a committed provider.

"This is an unfair representation of our work. The weather was forecasted to be rainy the day we were suppose to finish so as a precaution we pushed it back. Unfortunately on the scheduled date there was a small chance of light rain in the early evening but i've never experienced any problems with up to 5 hours dry time and it had plenty of time. The husband left me a voicemail early morning a couple days after work was completed discussing issues with a few areas that needed touching up and I returned his call later in the afternoon due to being very busy that day. He told me that it was a nice day so he just picked up the paint and fixed it himself but that he still needed a hand with the table getting out of the pool, a pvc table that was too big to go out any door without getting broken down so he agreed the pool was fine. We arranged for a couple days later which was my first available time to pull it out together and when i called he said he managed it fine. I do not understand why they have left a negative review when my communications with the husband have been positive. If there is ever an issue we can resolve, we do it as soon as possible."
Robbie and another team member arrived when they said they would and immediately got to work cleaning the pavers and pool coping. Once they were done with a thorough cleaning I noticed they were actually removing some pavers and leveling them off. I did NOT expect that service, but Robbie said they found a few sunken pavers (Toe Killers) and wanted to fix the issue prior to washing in new sand to fill the gaps. They did a great job of leveling the deck and then washed in new sand to a PERFECT level.
They then applied a layer of sealer to the pavers, cleaned up after themselves and left. The deck looked very very good. Unfortunately, despite the weather forecast saying there was a very minimal chance of rain that day (and not until late evening) we received an hours long torrential rains storm that started about 3 hours after they left. I contacted Robbie via email to ask if the down pours would cause a problem. He was optimistic that it would not, but told me what to check the next day (Water beading and uniform color).
'The next morning prior to my being able to get out to check the water bead Robbie called to see how the deck was. I tested the beading and told him that it didn't bead well in the area of the deck that receives the most rain water and that the color there looked lighter than the rest of the deck. He told me he would be back out to take a look. Long story short, he was back within the hour and applied another coat of sealer. The weather held until that coat had time to fully cure and the pavers look amazing! They bead water and have the wet look that we wanted. The sand looks amazing and has hardened with the sealer to be more like grout. Robbie and his partner did a great job at a fair price and came back to make sure we were happy when weather interfered. We couldn't be happier!
I saw at least one other review that mentioned Robbie's age. I'm not sure how old Robbie is, he is certainly younger than me, but I can say that the man knows his stuff and does what it takes to make sure the job is done right. Tack on his two year warranty and you can't go wrong! When we need the paver resealed, I know without a doubt who we will be calling!
Thanks Robbie!
He also cleaned and sealed some stone veneer on the front of the house. The pressure washer was turned up too high (in my opinion) and did a little damage to the stones, exposing some of the aggregate, but nothing too serious. If you use him for this you should ask him not to use full pressure. But my big issue from this job was that he did not protect the garage door and coach lights from overspray. He had to come back and repaint part of the garage as it had just been painted, but even so his painting did not cover all the overspray. The coach lights were essentially ruined, but I was planning to replace them anyhow so I let it go, but had that not been the case it would have been a problem.
Overall I liked Robbie and think he tries to do a good job, but his attention to detail could use some work and he definitely needs to take care to protect surrounding areas from his work. Hopefully as his business continues to grow he will work out some of these kinks. I said I would use him again in the future, and I may, but I would certainly deal with some of these other issues up front.
