Installation Guide – Charcoal 6″x12″ Tumbled Travertine Paver
Important Notice
This guide focuses only on paver placement. Base preparation and leveling should be performed by qualified professionals before installation.
Step 1: Dry Layout & Planning
Lay out pavers without adhesive to review natural color variations and textures.
Arrange in visually appealing patterns such as running bond, herringbone, or basketweave.
Mark straight reference lines to ensure consistent alignment during installation.
Step 2: Paver Placement
Place each 6″x12″ paver carefully on the prepared bedding layer.
Keep joint spacing uniform at 1/8″–1/4″ for sand or compatible joint filler.
Lightly tap with a rubber mallet to ensure proper seating and level alignment.
Step 3: Cutting & Adjustments
Use a wet saw with a diamond blade suitable for travertine for clean, precise cuts.
Handle pavers carefully to prevent chipping or breakage.
Smooth cut edges to maintain the natural, tumbled look.
Step 4: Joint Filling
Fill all joints with polymeric sand or travertine-approved joint filler.
Gently compact and sweep away excess material.
If using polymeric sand, lightly mist to activate bonding as per manufacturer instructions.
Step 5: Sealing & Maintenance
After the installation is dry, apply a breathable, penetrating sealer suitable for exterior travertine.
Re-seal every 1–2 years depending on traffic and weather conditions.
Clean only with pH-neutral stone cleaners; avoid acidic or abrasive products.
Disclaimer
Travertine is a natural stone and may show tonal variations, veining, and small surface pits—these are part of its unique character. Always dry-lay and inspect pavers before final installation. Professional installation is recommended for optimal durability and performance.
