Choose Travertine Pavers Over Brick for your Patio. Here’s Why

Written by Claire Anderson

Building a patio can add value to your home if you ever decide you want to put it on the market. But, choosing the right material to build your patio can be a struggle. There are several options, and all of them have their own advantages and disadvantages. Today we’re going to be looking at why travertine pavers are better than bricks.

Weather Resistance

Travertine pool pavers are known for being the best option when it comes to extreme conditions and temperatures. It doesn’t matter if you live where it gets bitterly cold, extremely hot, or where humidity is high, natural stone pavers won’t fade or crack like other materials. Brick pavers, on the other hand, will fade over time.

High Durability

If you want something that will last, travertine is the best choice as it is extremely strong and it won’t fall apart. Travertine can provide support and create a stable structure for any patio. Even extra added weight and pressure to the pavers won’t be an issue.

If you have leftover material, you can store it and reuse it for another project down the road. As long as the pavers are transported responsibly, they will not chip or crack while being moved.

Better Added Value

Natural stone products, like natural stone pool coping and travertine pavers, are much-sought-after materials. This will not only make your home appealing to visitors, but also to prospective buyers.

Homebuyers who do their homework will be impressed by seeing natural stone used on the patio and will be more likely to spend money for the privilege of having it.

More variety

Natural stone comes in a variety of textures and colors that guarantee your hardscaping design will be unique and stand out. Brick pavers are limited in color and shape options.

Easy Installation

Natural stone can be installed on pretty much any kind of structure, be it new or old. If you already have a starting point for your project, you can use travertine pavers on top of it. The installation process does not call for structural support either. The same is not true for brick paver projects.
