Travertine Tiles V Porcelain Tiles- The Great Debate Continues
When it comes to outdoor tiles, there are two heavyweights in the ring: travertine and porcelain tiles. Both have their merits, but today, we’re here to sing the praises of the stunning and unique travertine. If you’re home owner seeking the best choice for your outdoor space, keep reading to discover why travertine comes out on top.
- Embrace the Natural Beauty: One of the most remarkable things about travertine is its natural beauty. Being a type of natural stone, each tile has its unique character, featuring mesmerizing patterns and colours formed by Mother Nature herself. It’s like having a work of art right under your feet!
- A Cool Experience: Picture this: it’s a hot summer day, and you want to enjoy your outdoor space without scorching your feet. Travertine comes to the rescue! Unlike porcelain, which can get quite hot under the sun, travertine remains pleasantly cool, providing a soothing surface to walk on even on the hottest days.
- Sealing Powers: Both travertine and porcelain are porous materials, which means they can absorb moisture if not properly protected. Here’s where sealing comes in. Don’t fret; it’s not as complicated as it sounds. Both types require sealing, and when done right, it keeps the tiles in top-notch condition, ready to withstand the elements for years to come.
- Toughness and Resilience: Now, let’s talk about toughness. Travertine is no pushover! It can take a beating and still maintain its beauty. Porcelain, on the other hand, tends to be more brittle and prone to chipping. So, if you’re worried about tiles cracking under pressure, travertine has your back.
- The Replacements Advantage: Life can be unpredictable, and sometimes, tiles get damaged or need replacement. Here’s where travertine truly shines! Remember the unique patterns we mentioned earlier? Well, these variations make it easier to find a replacement tile that beautifully matches your existing floor, even after a decade. On the other hand, porcelain tiles often come from limited production runs, making replacements a bit trickier.
In conclusion, if you’re seeking outdoor tiles that boast natural beauty, stay cool under the sun, and can stand the test of time with easy replacements, then travertine is your go-to option. Its unique charm and practical advantages make it a winner for those looking to create an outdoor space that’s not only stylish but also durable.
So, why settle for ordinary when you can embrace the extraordinary? Go ahead and pick travertine tiles for your outdoor haven; you won’t be disappointed! Let the natural stone do the talking and make your outdoor space an envy-inducing oasis.
