water damage to flagstone

by Mike
(Tempe Arizona)

I have heard different opinions as to weather one should seal flagstone. My flagstone is weathering after several years because of water and I am inclined to seal it but I have also heard that sealing it keeps it from breathing and may make the water/weathering worse? Can you give me your advice on this?

Sealer is a good idea
by: Hans Claussen

Dear Mike,

It is a good idea to use the right sealer. We've been using Siloxane from Prosoco for many years and have had great luck. You should give the company a call, so you can get the right sealer for your area.

Their number is: 1-800-255-4255.

Great luck!
