Roman Travertine
Restored From
the Ground Up
Roman travertine — the stone of the Colosseum — is the most widely installed natural stone in South Florida. Its warm tan and ivory tones suit every architectural style, but its signature open pores fill with dirt and its soft surface wears and etches over time. We restore it completely.
- pH-neutral — safe for travertine & all natural stone
- Removes dirt, grime, oils & residue
- No rinse required — streak-free

The Stone That Built Rome
Still Needs Expert Care
Roman travertine — the classic warm tan and ivory stone quarried from the hills outside Tivoli, Italy — is by far the most commonly installed natural stone in Palm Beach County. Its warm earth tones, natural texture, and ability to work in both indoor and outdoor settings made it the default luxury flooring material for South Florida’s Mediterranean, Spanish Colonial, and contemporary estate homes built throughout the late twentieth century.
But travertine has a structural characteristic that distinguishes it from marble and granite: it is formed by hot spring deposits and contains natural voids and pores that were either left open (unfilled) or filled with grout or epoxy at installation. Over time, filled travertine loses its fill to traffic and settling. Unfilled travertine accumulates dirt, bacteria, and organic matter in its voids. The surface scratches from foot traffic and the natural calcium carbonate composition etches from acid contact. Pool deck travertine is further attacked by UV, pool chemicals, and the constant cycle of wetting and drying.
At Lifestyle Marble Restoration, travertine is our most-performed restoration service. We hole-fill with color-matched grout or epoxy, hone the surface to remove scratches and etch marks, and apply penetrating sealers rated for both indoor and outdoor Florida conditions. We’ve restored travertine floors, pool decks, showers, and patios across every community in Palm Beach County.
Every Statuario Surface.
Handled With Precision.
From a single etched countertop to a full-estate floor — we restore Statuario to the standard its value demands.
High-Gloss Polish Restoration
Statuario is almost always installed at a mirror-gloss finish that showcases its intense white field. We restore that gloss using calibrated diamond progression — no dullness, no haziness, no over-polish.
Etch Mark Removal
Statuario’s high-polish surface makes acid etching especially visible. We remove the damaged surface layer with fine diamond abrasives and re-polish to an exact match — invisible against the surrounding stone.
Pool Deck & Floor Revival
Statuario’s dramatic veining is its defining feature. Our technicians work carefully around vein patterns during grinding and polishing to ensure the character of the stone is fully preserved, never blurred or disrupted.
Countertop & Waterfall Island Restoration
Statuario waterfall kitchen islands are among the most striking — and most etched — surfaces we restore. We eliminate etch rings, surface scratches, and dulling and return the surface to its original showroom depth.
Shower & Feature Wall Revival
Statuario is frequently used as a full-wall feature in luxury master bathrooms. We restore both wall slabs and floor tiles in a single visit using wet-environment diamond work and shower-rated penetrating sealers.
Penetrating Sealer Application
Every Statuario restoration ends with a professional penetrating sealer that protects the stone’s pores from future acid damage and moisture without adding any surface sheen or altering the stone’s appearance.
Four Steps to
Travertine That Looks New
Deep Clean & Assess
We strip surface contaminants and assess etch depth, finish level, and porosity. A test patch is done on larger jobs.
Diamond Honing
Progressive diamond abrasives remove the etched layer and level the surface to a uniform, scratch-free plane.
Polish to Match
We finish at your floor’s original grit level — mirror-gloss, satin, or honed matte — so the restoration is invisible.
Seal & Protect
Premium penetrating sealer is applied and buffed in. Your Calacatta is walkable within hours, protected for years.
