Understanding travertine
Travertine has become a popular stone choice for centuries in many architectural and modern-day designs. From the magnificence of the Colosseum and similar Roman structures to luxurious homes and kitchen benchtops, travertine has become a highly popular stone choice due to its durability, flexibility, and aesthetically pleasing looks. However, like any other stone, travertine surfaces can become dull due to weather conditions, high traffic use and general wear and tear, causing them to lose their luster and grace. This is why travertine polishing is extremely important in order to restore the elegance of your travertine surfaces while increasing its longevity.
Travertine, a sedimentary rock, is a type of limestone formed by mineral deposits from natural springs and underground rivers. The changes in temperature and acidity aids in creating the distinctive features of travertine, being their unique colours and patterns, making all types of travertine surfaces beautiful and special.
Travertine belongs to the calcite family, along with marble, limestone, and onyx. It is generally porous and soft, making it susceptible to staining, scratching, and dulling over time. General use, spills, and high traffic areas, will cause your travertine surfaces to become dull, stained, scratched, and etched. Travertine polishing is the solution to restore and revitalise your travertine surfaces, bringing the surface back to its former glory. At Stone Doctor, our experts are highly skilled and qualified when it comes to travertine polishing.

The Travertine Polishing Process
The Travertine Polishing Process
- Surface Preparation: The first step in the polishing process is to prepare the surface and surrounding areas. We ensure all surrounding areas and surfaces are covered and protected and will not get dirty during the polishing process.
- Honing: Once the surface and surrounding areas have been protected and prepared, we can begin the travertine polishing process. Honing involves the use of diamond abrasives to remove the top layer of stone. Any stains and scratches will be removed by using very low grit diamond pads, slowly working our way up to a honed finish.
- Polishing: If you want to achieve a polished finish, finer diamond abrasive pads will be needed in order to bring the stone to a nice and shiny, uniform finish. Additional polishing compounds can be used for extra shine and gloss.
- Cleaning: Once the surface has been polished properly, the next step is to thoroughly clean the surface with specialty cleaners and prepare it for sealing.
- Sealing: Once the surface has been cleaned, we can complete the travertine polishing process by sealing the stone with a premium penetrating sealer.
