One of the most important things to consider before starting a construction project is choosing the right material for the job.
Travertine pavers are made of natural stone and are found in a great number of shapes and sizes. They have the perfect balance between natural and man-made look as a result of natural processes, and get their colors and textures entirely from nature. After travertine pavers are cut from the source, they are given a unique look, texture and finish.
The Advantages of Travertine
Unlike travertine, other options for outdoor paving are usually made of brick or cement and do not have the natural look neither the durability that comes from natural stone. Additionally, travertine pavers are far less likely to become slippery when wet, an important safety factor for pools and decks.
Travertine is also resistant to fading, less likely to gather debris, and therefore easier to clean. Brick and concrete typically have larger seams that can easily catch debris.
Some people hesitate to consider travertine as an option for their projects because they assume it is far more costly than man-made options, but this is a false assumption. Not only are travertine pavers reasonably priced for most budgets, but due to their durability, color fading resistance, and low maintenance, they are the wisest choice for any project.
If you are looking for patio or pool pavers that look amazing decades after installation, travertine is the right choice. At StoneHardscapes, clients have a wide array of options and receive superior customer service from the designing stage of a project to its completion.
