Filling Holes in Travertine
Repairing the floor is far less intrusive and costly than replacement
Filling Holes in Travertine
Natural travertine is full of holes , caused by gas bubbles trapped in the stone when it first formed, leaving the stone sponge like, with a honeycomb structure.
If you look at the underside of the tile you will see the natural holes in the stone.
When the stone is processed into floor tiles, the holes on the facing surface of the tile are filled before smoothing and polishing.
That is why the tiles are called filled travertine.
Holes appear in filled travertine tiles for two reasons
- a hole just below the surface is exposed when the thin layer of stone above it is damaged
- filler in an existing hole breaks down
The problem with holes is that they fill with dirt, making your floor look ugly.
