Care Tips
- Use walk-off mats at entries to trap grit.
- Dust-mop or vacuum regularly—grit is sandpaper.
- Clean with a pH-neutral stone cleaner (skip vinegar/bleach).
- Use felt pads; lift heavy items—don’t drag.
- Refresh sealer as needed; ask about maintenance plans.
FAQ
Do I need to replace my travertine if it has holes?
No. Holes can be filled flush, refinished, and sealed so the floor looks uniform again.
What’s the difference between etching and staining?
Etching is a dull mark from acids reacting with the stone; stains are color absorbed into pores. Etches need honing/polishing; stains need cleaning/spot treatment and sealing.
How long does restoration take?
Most homes are completed in 1–3 days depending on area size, repairs, and desired finish.
Can you match my travertine color for repairs?
Yes—repairs are color-matched to your specific stone so fills blend in.
Which finish should I choose—matte, satin, or polished?
All are options. Matte hides wear best, satin balances sheen and maintenance, polished gives more reflection but shows wear sooner in high traffic.
How often should I reseal?
Typically every 1–3 years depending on traffic and cleaner use. We’ll recommend a schedule after service.
