Travertine is a natural limestone in warm ivory, beige and walnut tones that sit well against stucco walls and Sonoran Desert plants. Each paver has its own veining, so a travertine patio never looks stamped out of a mold.
Its light color tends to stay more comfortable under bare feet than darker pavers or bare concrete in the Chandler summer heat. That is a big reason so many East Valley pool decks are finished in travertine pavers.

These are the six places we set travertine most often around Chandler, Gilbert and Mesa. Pool decks and back patios lead the list.
Travertine also works in smaller doses. A few stone pads set into artificial turf or decorative rock give a yard the same natural stone look without paving the whole thing.
Old cool deck or worn concrete stripped off, then travertine set around the pool.
Thin travertine set over a sound slab to change the look without demo.
Entry walks and courtyards finished in natural stone.
We go over tumbled, honed and brushed stone on site and help you match it to your pool and your house.
Travertine is ordered by the square foot plus cut waste, so the measurement matters. We measure every edge, the coping line and the steps, check whether the existing slab can stay, and then write up your travertine price.
An overlay on a sound slab and a full tear out are two very different jobs. Tapping the old deck for hollow spots and checking the heights at the doors tells us which one your yard needs.
The steps depend on what is there now. A sound slab can take an overlay, while dirt or a failing deck gets a new base first.
Stone is cut on site with a wet saw so the edges at the pool coping, the steps and the posts come out clean. Joints get filled once everything is set, and the deck is rinsed before we walk it with you.
Area measured, stone and finish picked.
Old surface out, or the slab cleaned and checked.
Base compacted, or stone set over the slab.
Stone laid level, cut at edges and coping.
Joints filled, rinsed, walked with you.
Light travertine looks sharp next to green turf, dark rock or a band of pavers. We install all of those, so the stone and the ground around it are done by one crew.
A pergola over a travertine patio adds shade where the stone meets the house. Pairing the stone with turf and desert plants keeps the yard green without a thirsty lawn.
Travertine is priced by the job, based on what we measure and what sits there now. These four variables move it most.
Two pool decks of the same size can land far apart if one needs the old cool deck removed and the other can take an overlay. The written quote shows you which one yours is.
More edges, curves and steps mean more cut stone and more waste.
An overlay on a good slab skips demo. A failing deck has to come out first.
Paver size, color and finish all carry different material costs.
Stone is heavy. A tight side yard means more hand carrying for stone and base.

Homeowners in Chandler usually ask about heat, finishes and whether travertine can go over an old pool deck. Here are straight answers to the common ones.
It stays more comfortable than dark pavers or bare concrete because the light color reflects more sun. It still warms up on a July afternoon, so it is not cold, just easier on bare feet.
Tumbled has soft, worn edges and a rustic texture. Honed is flat and smooth with a matte look, and brushed sits between the two.
Travertine forms with natural pits and voids. Filled stone has those packed for a smoother face, while unfilled stone keeps them as part of the natural look.
If the concrete is solid and the height works at the coping and doors, yes. Cracked, lifting or hollow decks need to come out before any stone goes down.
Tumbled and brushed finishes have enough texture for pool areas. Polished travertine is the one to avoid outside, since it gets slick when wet.
The color runs all the way through the stone, so there is no surface coating to peel. It can mellow slightly over the years, which most people like.
We set travertine from Chandler out to Gilbert, Mesa and Tempe. Queen Creek, Ahwatukee and San Tan Valley are on our regular map as well.
Pool decks in HOA communities sometimes have color guidelines, and backyards over clay soil need a well built base. We plan for both on every travertine job in Maricopa County.
Same stone, different surface. The finish decides how it looks, how it grips and how it cleans.
For pool decks and patios around Chandler, tumbled and brushed travertine are the practical picks because of their texture. Honed stone suits a clean, modern patio, and filled stone gives a smoother face.
Rounded edges and a worn, textured face. A common pick for pool decks.
Flat and smooth with a matte face, for a clean modern look.
