Colour sealing with Dulux Avista.

A clear seal protects the concrete you've got. A colour seal transforms it. It's a premium tinted coating — we use Dulux Avista — applied over your prepared driveway to resurface and recolour it in one go.

Faded, patchy, stained or mismatched concrete comes back as a fresh, even, modern colour — then it's protected against salt, UV, oil and algae for years. It's the difference between a driveway that looks clean and one that looks brand new.

Know the difference

Colour seal, clear seal — or paint?

The most important thing to understand before you spend a cent: a colour seal is not driveway paint.

Colour seal

A tinted Dulux Avista seal that resurfaces AND recolours the concrete. Evens out patchy, faded, stained slabs into a fresh, uniform colour — then protects it.

Best for
Tired, faded, patchy or mismatched concrete you want to transform.
Durability
Bonds & breathes — won't peel. Lasts years.

Clear seal

A clear penetrating or wet-look seal that protects and lifts the colour that's already there, without changing it.

Best for
Concrete in good nick where you like the existing colour.
Durability
Protects & enhances. Reseal every few years.

Driveway paint

Sits on top of the concrete as a film. Looks okay at first, but it can't breathe — so moisture pushes it off.

Best for
We don't recommend it — and here's why.
Durability
Peels, flakes and lifts, especially under sun, tyres and water.

Paint can't breathe, so moisture trapped under the slab pushes it off — that's why painted driveways peel. A Dulux Avista colour seal bonds into the surface and stays breathable, so it holds up to the sun, tyres and water a driveway lives with.

The other option

Clear sealing, when the colour's already right.

If your concrete or aggregate is in good nick and you like the colour, a clear seal is all you need — it protects the surface and lifts the finish without changing the look. Choose your level of sheen:

Wet-look

A rich, glossy finish that deepens the colour and makes aggregate and pavers pop.

Enhance

A subtle satin sheen — the middle ground between natural and full wet-look.

Natural

Invisible protection that keeps the surface looking exactly as it is — just defended.

We'll recommend a reseal window for your exposure — beachfront driveways work the seal harder than inland ones.

How it works

A finish that lasts starts with the prep.

01

Assess & colour match

We look at your surface and staining, talk through clear vs colour, and — for a colour seal — help you choose a Dulux Avista colour that suits your home.

02

Deep clean

Commercial cleaning strips years of algae, oil and grime so the seal bonds to bare, sound surface — the step that makes or breaks the finish.

03

Prep & repair

We treat stubborn stains, re-sand paver joints, spot-repair where needed and let the surface dry completely before anything goes down.

04

Seal or colour seal

We apply your seal evenly in multiple coats — a clear wet-look/natural seal, or a Dulux Avista colour seal that resurfaces and recolours the concrete.

05

Cure & protect

The seal is left to cure properly so it hardens into a tough, breathable, long-lasting finish. We leave the site spotless.

Aftercare is easy. Keep off the fresh seal for the cure time we give you (usually a day or two for foot traffic, a little longer for cars), then just hose it down when it needs it — a sealed driveway cleans up in minutes instead of a full scrub.

Backed by the two-brothers promise

We're two local brothers, fully insured, and we treat your place like our own. If you're not happy with the finish, we'll put it right — simple as that.

Real results

Good to know

Sealing questions.

What is colour sealing?+

Colour sealing is a premium tinted seal — we use Dulux Avista — applied over your prepared concrete to resurface and recolour it. Instead of just protecting the surface like a clear seal, it evens out patchy, faded or stained concrete into a fresh, uniform colour, then protects it for years. It's the difference between a driveway that looks clean and one that looks new.

Is colour sealing the same as painting my driveway?+

No — and it's the most important thing to understand. Driveway paint sits on top of the concrete and eventually peels, flakes and lifts, especially under hot sun, tyres and water. A colour seal bonds into the surface and stays breathable, so moisture can escape and it won't peel like paint. It's a proper coating system built for driveways, not a tin of paint.

Can you change or refresh my driveway's colour?+

Yes. With the Dulux Avista colour range we can give you a fresh, even colour — warm the concrete up, take it darker and more modern, or bring a tired, blotchy slab back to a clean uniform look. We'll help you choose a colour that suits your home.

Should I get a clear seal or a colour seal?+

If your concrete is in good nick and you like the colour, a clear seal protects it and gives a wet-look or natural finish. If it's tired, faded, patchy or stained, a colour seal transforms it — it's the bigger visual change and our most popular option. We'll tell you honestly which is right for your driveway.

How long does driveway sealing last?+

A quality seal on a properly prepped driveway typically lasts 2–4 years on the Central Coast, depending on traffic and sun exposure. We'll recommend a reseal window so it never gets away from you.

Do you clean and seal in one visit?+

The clean and seal are usually split across visits — the surface must be completely dry before sealing for the finish to bond and last. We'll schedule it so it's seamless for you.
