Common Travertine Problems

Travertine is a porous, calcium-based stone with natural holes and pits. It shows wear in its own ways:

  • Dirt-filled holes. Open pores and pits collect dirt and turn dark.
  • Etching. Acidic spills and cleaners leave dull spots.
  • Dull traffic paths. Honed and polished travertine both wear unevenly.
  • Stains. Unsealed travertine absorbs spills, oil, and pool water.
  • Outdoor weathering. Pool deck and patio travertine collects algae and mineral spots.
  • Dark, dirty grout. Grout between travertine tiles darkens faster than the stone.

Our Travertine Care Process

  1. Inspection. We check the finish (filled, unfilled, honed, polished, or tumbled) and the condition of the stone and grout.
  2. Preparation. We protect nearby surfaces. Our technicians can move small, light furniture. We don’t move heavy or fragile items, so please clear those before we arrive.
  3. Stone-safe cleaning. We clean the surface, the pores, and the grout lines with products made for calcium-based stone.
  4. Hole filling. We can fill open holes so the surface is smoother and easier to clean.
  5. Honing and polishing, if needed. We remove etching and scratches with honing and bring the finish up with polishing.
  6. Sealing. We seal the travertine and grout. If we seal, allow 24 to 48 hours for the sealer to cure before normal use and mopping.

Aftercare for Travertine

  • Allow 24 to 48 hours for the sealer to cure before normal use and mopping.
  • Use a pH-neutral stone cleaner. Acidic cleaners etch travertine.
  • Rinse outdoor travertine after pool use to clear chlorine and sunscreen.
  • Vacuum or dust mop to keep grit out of the pores.

How long results last depends on traffic, sealing, and care. Plan on resealing about every 2 years.
