Travertine Countertops

Are you familiar with travertine countertops? It is the emerging trend in kitchen and bathroom countertops. Travertine is actually a variety of limestone that is formed through deposits in mineral springs. It is then carefully combined with cement and then to get a more uniform look, it is polished and smoothed. Why is it becoming more popular in American homes? We can give you a few reasons:

• Elegance. The smoothness of this natural stone has that soft and velvety feel that can catch anybody’s attention. It adds a certain class and prestige to your bathroom or kitchen.
• Durability. Travertine is designed to endure several types of damages like scratches, cracks and chips. Although, there may be a possibility of certain effects on the stone over time. It would be good to note that natural-finish are more likely to resist any type of damage as opposed to polished or honed.
• Affordability. Travertine countertops are cheaper than granite or marble countertops. For those who prefer natural stone over other materials, this is a good option if you are on a tight budget.
• Color Choice. It comes in earthy and warm shades like gold, cream, and beige, among others. Regardless of your choice in color, travertine can add a classic and timeless touch to your bathroom or kitchen.
• Long-lasting. If maintained well, travertine can literally last a lifetime. This means you only need to spend on a countertop one time and have it last until you grow old.
