Travertine marble is a popular choice for wet rooms due to its natural beauty and textured surface, which provides a non-slip advantage. However, being a porous stone, travertine requires proper treatment and maintenance to ensure longevity in wet environments like showers or wet rooms.
Travertine is known for its warm, earthy tones, ranging from beige and cream to tan and brown. It has natural pits and voids that give it a rustic and unique look.
Travertine’s texture is often honed (smooth but matte) or tumbled (with a rougher surface), making it less slippery when wet compared to polished stones.
Typically available in honed, tumbled, or brushed finishes. Honed travertine offers a smooth yet matte look, while tumbled travertine has a more aged, rustic appearance.
Travertine brings a warm, natural aesthetic to a wet room, creating a spa-like atmosphere.
The natural texture of travertine, especially in tumbled finishes, provides better grip, making it a safer option for wet environments.
Travertine can be used for flooring, walls, and even shower benches, creating a cohesive and natural look throughout the wet room.
Travertine is ideal for wet room floors due to its textured surface. The tumbled finish is particularly suitable for areas prone to water exposure, as it offers more traction.
Travertine can be used to clad the walls of the wet room, creating a warm and inviting feel. The natural veins and patterns of the stone add visual interest to the space.
Travertine is a popular choice for shower floors and walls, lending a luxurious, spa-like quality to the wet room.
Ensure that the floor is properly sloped towards the drain to prevent water pooling, which could damage the stone over time.
Pair travertine floors and walls with wood or brushed nickel fixtures to create a natural, warm, and inviting wet room. This combination brings an earthy yet elegant feel to the space.
Travertine’s porous nature means it can absorb water and stains if not properly sealed. Regular maintenance is essential to keep it looking fresh.
Travertine can be more affordable than some other natural stones, but installation and maintenance costs should be considered.
While durable, travertine is softer than marble or granite, so it may be more prone to scratches or chipping. However, these imperfections often blend into the natural texture of the stone.
