From routine buildup to stubborn stains, our travertine care specialists assess the condition of your stone and provide the appropriate cleaning, and sealing services to give it a fresh, new start.
Travertine adds natural character to floors, showers, patios, fountains, and other surfaces, but its porous surface can collect dirt, stains, soap film, and other buildup over time. Beyond Stone Solutions provides professional travertine cleaning and sealing in Scottsdale to restore the appearance of your stone and provide appropriate protection against staining.
For 50 years, Beyond Stone Solutions has helped Arizona homeowners and businesses clean, restore, and protect natural stone surfaces. Our experienced team brings specialized stone-care knowledge to every project, from everyday travertine maintenance to complex restoration.
Travertine needs more than a generic cleaning approach. Its natural pores, texture, finish, location, and condition all affect how the stone should be cleaned and protected.
Beyond Stone Solutions provides professional travertine cleaning for Scottsdale homes and commercial properties, including floors, showers, outdoor areas, fountains, and other travertine surfaces. Our approach is based on the condition of the stone and the type of soil, buildup, or staining present rather than applying the same treatment to every surface.
Professional cleaning can address deeply embedded soil, soap film, surface buildup, and other contaminants that routine household cleaning may leave behind. When appropriate, targeted treatment can also be used for specific staining or discoloration.
After cleaning, we can determine whether the travertine would benefit from professional sealing or another form of protection.
Professional cleaning may be worth considering when:
If you’re unsure whether your Scottsdale travertine needs cleaning, sealing, restoration, or another treatment, a professional evaluation can help identify the appropriate next step.
Not every stain has the same cause, so effective treatment begins with identifying the type of staining and assessing the condition of the travertine.
Beyond Stone Solutions routinely treats and restores stained travertine surfaces in Scottsdale, including projects involving stubborn rust stains, discoloration, and other surface problems. Our team selects the appropriate treatment for the stone and the type of stain, then can refinish and seal the surface as needed to restore its appearance and help protect it.

Professional evaluation matters because a stain may require targeted treatment rather than simply applying a stronger cleaning product. The right approach depends on what caused the stain, how deeply it has affected the stone, and the finish and condition of the travertine.
See how Beyond Stone Solutions has restored and protected Scottsdale-area travertine in real-world conditions, from weathered patios and pool areas to calcium-damaged fountains.
Years of exposure left a travertine patio, pool area, and stairs dull and weathered. BSS professionally cleaned, sealed, and enhanced the stone to restore its color and protect it from the Arizona environment.
Calcium deposits and a failing sealer had left this travertine fountain discolored and deteriorated. BSS used dustless media blasting to remove the deposits before enhancing and protecting the stone.
Cleaning and sealing are related services, but they perform different jobs.
Cleaning removes unwanted soil, buildup, and contaminants. Sealing helps reduce absorption and inhibit staining on appropriately prepared porous stone.
Beyond Stone Solutions offers professional sealing for natural stone, including travertine. Depending on the stone and desired result, the appropriate protection may include an impregnating sealer or another suitable treatment.
An appropriate impregnating sealer penetrates the stone’s pores and helps inhibit staining by reducing the amount of liquid that can be absorbed into the stone.
Professional sealing can help:
Sealing does not make travertine maintenance-free.
An impregnating sealer also does not prevent acid etching. Travertine remains sensitive to acidic substances, so proper cleaning products and ongoing care remain important even after sealing.
If your travertine is already etched, damaged, or has a finish problem, cleaning and sealing alone may not provide the result you’re looking for. In those situations, Beyond Stone Solutions can evaluate whether another restoration service is appropriate.
Every travertine surface has different needs. The condition of the stone, its finish, location, previous treatments, type of buildup, and intended use can all influence the appropriate process.
1. Evaluate the Travertine
We assess the surface to understand its condition and identify visible soil, staining, buildup, previous treatments, and other factors that may affect the work.
2. Prepare the Work Area
Appropriate precautions are taken to protect surrounding surfaces and the property while the work is performed.
3. Deep Clean the Stone
We use professional, stone-appropriate cleaning methods selected for the condition of the travertine.
4. Treat Applicable Stains and Buildup
When necessary, targeted treatment is used for specific stains, soap film, mineral deposits, or other problem areas.
5. Prepare the Surface for Sealing
The stone must be appropriately cleaned and prepared before protective treatment is applied.
6. Apply Appropriate Protection
When sealing is recommended, the appropriate protective treatment is applied based on the stone, surface, and intended use.
7. Recommend Ongoing Care
After the work, you’ll receive practical guidance for maintaining the travertine and protecting the results.
Beyond Stone Solutions works with travertine in a variety of residential and commercial applications throughout Scottsdale.
Daily foot traffic can gradually push dirt into textured travertine and grout lines. Professional cleaning can remove buildup that routine sweeping and mopping may not fully address.
If the floor also has a worn or uneven finish, we can evaluate whether cleaning and sealing are sufficient or whether a restoration treatment would be more appropriate.
Travertine showers can develop soap film, mineral deposits, calcium buildup, and other contaminants because of regular exposure to water and bathing products.
