Travertine Cleaning, Sealing, and Restoration in NAPLES AND South Florida
Restore and Protect Your Travertine
Travertine is a beautiful, natural stone known for its elegance and durability. However, due to its porous nature, it can be susceptible to staining, etching, and wear over time. At CEI Surface PROS, we specialize in expert travertine cleaning, sealing, and restoration services to ensure your stone surfaces in Naples and South Florida remain pristine and long-lasting.
Common Travertine Issues & Our Solutions
- Embedded Dirt and Stains – Travertine’s porous surface easily absorbs dirt, grime, and spills, leading to discoloration. We use deep-cleaning techniques that extract contaminants without damaging the stone.
- Scratches and Etching – Acidic substances like wine, citrus, or household cleaners can dull and etch travertine surfaces. Our resurfacing and polishing services restore its smooth, even appearance.
- Dull or Worn Surfaces – Heavy foot traffic can wear down travertine’s finish. Our honing and polishing process rejuvenates your floors, countertops, and tiles with a customized sheen—matte, satin, or high-gloss.
- Cracks and Pitting – Natural pits and voids in travertine can expand over time, leading to uneven surfaces and structural concerns. We offer expert repair and filling techniques to restore integrity and appearance.
- Moisture Damage and Mold Growth – In humid environments, travertine can absorb excess moisture, fostering mold or mildew. Our professional cleaning and sealing solutions prevent future damage and staining.

Fun Facts About Travertine:
- Travertine is a form of limestone deposited by mineral springs—used by the Romans to build temples, amphitheaters, and aqueducts.
- Its natural holes and pits give it a unique, rustic appearance, but also make it more prone to dirt accumulation.
- Travertine is one of the few stones that looks better with age, especially when properly maintained and sealed.
- It’s an ideal stone for high-end flooring because it stays cool underfoot, making it perfect for Florida’s climate.
