Installation Guide – Country Classic 6″x12″ Tumbled Travertine Paver
Important Note
This guide covers only the paver covering phase. Ensure sub-base and bedding preparation are completed by qualified professionals before beginning.
Step 1: Dry Layout & Planning
- Dry-lay pavers to assess natural color, veining, and texture variations.
- Arrange pieces in your desired pattern (e.g., running bond, herringbone, basketweave) for visual balance.
- Snap chalk lines or use a laser level to mark reference lines for straight, consistent rows.
Step 2: Paver Placement
- Carefully position each 6″x12″ paver onto the prepared bedding layer.
- Maintain uniform joint spacing of 1/8″–1/4″ to allow for joint filler.
- Tap gently with a rubber mallet to seat the paver fully and achieve level alignment.
Step 3: Cutting & Edge Finishing
- Use a wet saw equipped with a travertine-rated diamond blade for precise cuts.
- Support small-format pavers securely during cutting to prevent chipping.
- File or smooth any exposed cut edges to preserve the tumbled finish.
Step 4: Joint Filling
- Fill joints with polymeric sand or a travertine-compatible joint filler.
- Compact the surface gently, then sweep away all excess filler.
- If using polymeric sand, mist lightly to activate bonding as per manufacturer instructions.
Step 5: Sealing & Maintenance
- After installation is fully dry, apply a breathable, penetrating sealer formulated for exterior travertine.
- Re-seal every 1–2 years depending on climate and traffic.
- Clean only with pH-neutral stone cleaners; avoid acidic or abrasive products.
Disclaimer
Travertine is a natural stone featuring inherent tonal variation, surface pits, and veining. These are part of its unique character and not defects. Always dry-lay and inspect materials before final installation. Professional installation is recommended to ensure long-term performance and durability.
