Travertine Repair and Restoration

Travertine Cleaning, Honing and Restoration - Boston Metro Area

Bring Out the Timeless Beauty of Your Travertine

Travertine is known for its warm, earthy elegance and unique character—but its naturally porous and pitted surface also makes it vulnerable to wear, dullness, holes, uneven textures, and staining. High-traffic areas, kitchen spills, and bathroom moisture can quickly diminish its beauty.

At Pinnacle Stone, we provide expert Travertine cleaning, honing, polishing, filling, restoration, and sealing throughout the Boston Metro Area. Whether your travertine floor is filled, unfilled, honed, or polished, our team restores its natural charm and ensures long-lasting protection.

From classic Boston brownstones to suburban homes in Newton and Wellesley, we bring new life to travertine surfaces across the region.

Travertine Honing

Our Professional Travertine Restoration Services

Deep Cleaning & Grout Line Refreshing

Travertine and grout can trap dirt and grime. Our deep cleaning process lifts embedded soil, restores original color, and removes buildup from floors, showers, and other surfaces.

Travertine Honing (Scratch, Etch & Wear Removal)

Etching from acidic spills, foot traffic scratches, and dull spots are removed through expert honing, restoring a smooth, natural finish.

Travertine Polishing

We bring back the light reflection and soft sheen travertine is known for—whether you prefer a satin, semi-gloss, or polished appearance.

Hole Filling (Travertine Pits & Voids)

Travertine naturally forms with holes and pits that open up over time. We professionally fill them with matching compounds for a seamless, uniform look.

Lippage Removal (Uneven Tile Leveling)

Uneven tiles create trip hazards and an uneven appearance. We can flatten and level the surface for consistent, safe flooring.

Professional Sealing

Our penetrating sealers help protect travertine from stains, water absorption, and daily wear—ideal for Boston’s busy households and commercial spaces.

Did You Know? 

  • Travertine is a form of limestone formed near mineral springs—each piece is naturally unique.
  • Unfilled travertine holes can reopen over time; proper filling prevents dirt buildup.
  • Many Boston homes built in the 90s–2000s used travertine in kitchens and bathrooms.
  • Etching isn’t a stain—it’s surface damage caused by acidic products.
  • Travertine benefits from regular honing more than most stone types due to its softness.

FAQs About Travertine Restoration

Q: Why does my travertine have holes or pits?
