What Is Travertine Sealing?

What Is Travertine Sealing?
Travertine is a natural stone full of tiny holes and pores. That’s what gives it its warm, cool-to-the-touch look. It’s also why it soaks up water, dirt, pool chemicals and mold spores. Travertine sealing protects those pores with a breathable sealer, so the stone pushes water and stains away instead of drinking them in.
Outdoor travertine in Central Florida takes a beating: afternoon storms, year-round humidity, chlorine and salt from the pool, and strong sun. Left unsealed, it turns gray, grows algae in the shade and loses its joint sand. Sealed the right way, it stays easier to clean and keeps its natural color.
Castle Clean & Seal cleans and seals travertine pool decks, patios and lanais for homeowners in Orlando, Sanford, Lake Mary, Oviedo, DeLand, Daytona Beach and across Volusia, Seminole and Orange County.
Gentle low-pressure cleaning that’s safe for natural stone
Joint-stabilizing sand in the color you pick
Breathable water-based sealer (ICT UrE-Seal H2O)
Up to a 30-month warranty with our Platinum package

1
Step One
Treat It at the Root
We apply a 100% biodegradable algaecide that soaks into travertine’s pores and kills mold, algae and mildew at the source — not just on the surface.
2
Step Two
Deep Clean, Gently
Travertine is a soft natural stone, so our high-volume, low-pressure system lifts dirt, grime and pool-chemical buildup without chipping or etching the surface.
3
Step Three
Re-Sand the Joints
A wet sand process packs joint-stabilizing sand deep into every gap. It helps hold the stones in place and greatly reduces weeds and washout.
4
Step Four
Seal & Protect
We finish with 2–3 coats of premium water-based sealer. It lets the stone breathe, helps repel water and stains, and brings out travertine’s natural color.

Why we only use a water-based sealer on travertine
Why we only use a water-based sealer on travertine
Travertine needs to breathe. Solvent-based sealers can form an airtight film that traps Florida moisture under the surface. That leads to white haze, peeling and a slick, plastic-like coating. We use ICT UrE-Seal H2O, a breathable water-based sealer made for humid climates. It lets moisture escape, and it can go down on a slightly damp surface, which is why we can usually clean and seal in one day.

Travertine is denser than concrete pavers, so the sealer takes a little longer to cure. Plan to stay off it for about 24 hours and wait 48 hours before putting furniture back.
Some sand or debris can reach the pool while we work, so ask your pool company to run a quick vacuum on their next visit.
