A Landscaper's View

To keep the water from seeping into the cracks, freezing, and thus ruining the stone, we brushed polymeric sand into the travertine to fill in any pockets where water could collect.  After brushing the polymeric sand into the crevices, we misted the entire patio and sidewalk several times for the sand to harden.  Here’s a picture of paver with the sand filled in.

After the polymeric sand is set, we spread a sealer across the surface.   Each of the three sealers pictured below adds a different color tone to the stone.

In the next post, I’ll be posting several pictures of the finished product.
