Was quoted a price of $250 for this work. Questions: 1) Is this a type of maintenance that I should be conducting yearly? (Or is this something that I could do less frequently)? 2) If I go forward with this work, does the price sound reasonable? (I’m in a patio villa with a very short driveway, and a long, narrow, enclosed birdcage on the side of my home).
Thanks for your replies, always helpful.

The company that did our lanai floor last month said it was good for 10 years before needing to be resealed. We haven’t had driveway done yet, but I think the warranty is the same if we use them for the job. Every year sounds excessive to me, but I don’t know what kind of paint was used on yours. Ours is solvent based (still have a lingering odor out there since it’s enclosed, but it’s fading), and it soaked into the concrete. It’s not just a surface paint.
