Travertine Restoration

Solutions for all Travertine Restoration

Travertine is a unique and versatile stone, suitable to a wide range of decorative styles, from rugged and rustic to welcoming old world charm to stunning high-polished elegance. However, your travertine can become dirty or dull-looking, scratched, etched, cracked, chipped, or otherwise damaged with time and use.

As the restoration experts serving Sydney suburbs, we also excel in grout restoration, ensuring every detail is perfected.

Restoration: To Fill Or Not To Fill?

Travertine, in its original state, has naturally occurring holes throughout. Part of Travertine’s unique appeal is that it is available in two distinct forms — filled and unfilled.

In “filled” travertine, a colour-matched material is used at the factory to fill the holes, giving the stone a smooth finish. The natural holes in the “unfilled” travertine remain exposed for a rustic, earthy finish. Both filled and unfilled travertine are beautiful in their own right, and both offer their own particular look and feel. If you have unfilled travertine or your filled travertine has developed exposed holes, we’re here to help. Our service includes filling these holes, ensuring a seamless and refined appearance.

Filling Holes In Travertine: Floating

Travertine “floating” may bring to mind inflatable lounge chairs or rubber duckies, but it has nothing to do with bodies of water. It is the process used to either change unfilled travertine surfaces to the smooth appearance of filled travertine or to repair filled travertine surfaces with holes that have become exposed due to time and wear.

Our expert technicians can tint fillers to blend the repair site with the surrounding area. After the filler dries, our honing and polishing process achieves a beautifully uniform finish. To change a completely unfilled surface to a filled one, we basically use the same process, but in this case, we can offer a broader array of design choices because we are not limited to matching an existing filler.

Our Travertine Restoration Services Include:

Travertine Grinding/Lippage Removal

Using the latest diamond grinding technology, we can correct uneven tiles or make them flush with the grout to provide a safer, longer-lasting surface. Your travertine tiles will be less likely to chip or crack and have an elegant, even appearance. Whether you want floor tiles flush with grout lines for easier cleaning or a remedy for uneven tiles that can be hazardous (not to mention unattractive), Complete Stone Care and Protection can provide these services using state-of-the-art diamond grinding technology. Once the uneven tiles are levelled (lippage removal), the travertine is honed and polished to the finish of your choice.

Travertine Refinishing

If your travertine has become dull with wear and tear, we can restore the finish to look new. Refinishing is similar to floating in that you can restore a finish that is uneven or has become dulled by wear, scratches or other surface damage or alter the finish entirely if you’re looking for a change of pace. Complete Stone Care and Protection is well-versed in the types of finishes possible and experienced in the techniques required. Our experts can remove any scratches and scuffs that may have occurred over time and give your travertine tiles a matte or gloss finish, whichever you prefer. We are your go-to experts for travertine restoration in Sydney.

We have a thorough understanding of travertine and many other types of stone used in the home, including granite, marble, and limestone. We offer the very best in stone protection treatments, always providing excellent quality workmanship at competitive prices. Our services are covered by a 10-year warranty, offering you complete protection.

Travertine Honing & Polishing

Complete Stone Care can hone your travertine surfaces to eliminate imperfections such as dull spots, scratches, etching and other wear and tear, resulting in a damage-free surface that looks like new again. With the damage erased, our expert technicians can polish your travertine using the appropriate diamond-infused pads or polishing powders, achieving a honed (soft matte) finish that is warm, inviting, and velvety smooth, a gorgeous glass-like polish or something in between.

Deep Cleaning Soiled Travertine

Unfilled travertine, with its naturally varying surface texture and inherent holes, can be particularly challenging to clean once dirt has had time to accumulate in the hollows and low points. From removing deeply embedded soiling and stripping away years of build-up of unsightly topical treatments to removing soap film in showers and getting rid of soot on fireplaces, we can resolve a host of other travertine cleaning problems and leave your stone as pristine as the day it was installed.

Sealing Travertine

Once your travertine floors, showers, tub surrounds, walls, and other travertine surfaces are restored, we highly recommend you seal your travertine to help inhibit staining. Like all natural stones, travertine is naturally porous and quickly absorbs staining agents. Most stains can be resolved, but who wants to go to all that trouble, expense and frustration when it can easily be avoided. A thorough professional sealing is a good, inexpensive way to prevent stains at the pass.

Travertine Colour Enhancing

Travertine is characterised by its neutral, earth-tone colours. For certain types of travertine, our skilled technicians can apply an enhancing sealer to intensify the colour and enrich its natural beauty.

Travertine Stain Removal

Stains inevitably happen. Whether you’re looking for DIY stain removal advice or want to hand the mess off to us, most stains and discolourations can be resolved.
