Frequently Asked Questions

What are travertine look tiles?

Travertine look tiles are porcelain or ceramic tiles designed to replicate the colour, pattern, and texture of natural travertine stone. Available in both vein cut or crosscut pattern, they offer the same timeless aesthetic but with easier maintenance and better durability.

Are travertine look tiles durable?

Yes. Porcelain travertine look tiles are extremely durable and resistant to scratches, stains, and moisture. With a water absorption rate typically below 0.5%, they’re perfect for high-traffic and wet areas like kitchens, bathrooms, and entryways.

Can I use travertine look tiles in a bathroom or shower?

Definitely. Porcelain’s non-porous surface makes it ideal for bathrooms and showers. It won’t absorb water or harbour mildew the way natural stone sometimes can.

Do travertine look tiles look realistic?

Whether it is a vein cut travertine look or a crosscut travertine look, modern manufacturing has made travertine look tiles almost indistinguishable from real stone. High-quality porcelain versions feature detailed textures and natural colour variation that mimic real travertine closely — most people can’t tell the difference once installed.

Are travertine look tiles a timeless or trendy choice?

Travertine has a classic, enduring appeal. While design trends come and go, its warm, natural tones and subtle veining have remained popular for decades — making travertine look tiles a safe, long-term style investment.

What colours and finishes are available?

You’ll find travertine look tiles in shades from creamy beige and ivory to walnut and charcoal. Finishes range from matte and textured (for a natural stone feel) to semi-polished, honed or polished for a more refined look.

Are travertine look tiles easy to install?

Yes. Because porcelain and ceramic tiles are machine-cut to consistent dimensions, they’re easier to lay than natural stone. A level substrate and a skilled tiler will help achieve a seamless, professional finish.

What kind of grout should I use?

For the most natural look, use narrow grout lines (2–3mm) in a colour that blends with your tiles. This minimizes visual breaks and makes cleaning easier. Always seal the grout, even if your tiles don’t require sealing.

Do travertine look tiles need to be sealed?

Unlike real travertine, porcelain and ceramic tiles are non-porous, so they don’t need sealing. Only the grout between tiles should be sealed periodically to prevent staining.

Are travertine look tiles cheaper than natural travertine?

Yes — significantly. Travertine look porcelain tiles deliver the same aesthetic at a fraction of the price, without the ongoing sealing and maintenance costs of real stone.

How do I clean and maintain travertine look tiles?

They’re very low-maintenance. Regular sweeping and mopping with a mild detergent are enough. Avoid acidic cleaners, which can damage grout over time.

Where can I buy travertine look tiles?
