A selected travertine tile checklist then:

	Before you start a travertine tile project, it’s very important to do research on the nature of the stone, the most suitable uses, installation, warranty information and other important factors. This information can be taken from flooring contractors and resellers, flooring professionals, and most of all from others who have experience in installing travertine tile.
	Opting for a suitable sealer is an important step despite of whichever travertine you choose. Local retailers and flooring professionals dealing with stone products can advise on making the appropriate choice in all your selections for travertine tile flooring. You must also follow the manufacturer’s instructions given on the labels of any product you buy. Reading and following the instructions will help to achieve the best results.
	Minor color variation is normal in travertine tiles, marble tiles, and any element derived from natural stone. Although a selection process is performed at the time of packing dependent on the color variation, it is still a good idea to open all cartons in a given batch of travertine tile at the same time.  From here, it is possible to mix tiles from different cartons and create a pattern of your choice.  In this sense, flooring professionals consider color variation in travertine tile, marble tile, and natural stone tile in general to be an advantage.
	Make sure you receive and read your warranty before you start the installation. Check if there are any broken tiles and get them replaced. Also discuss shipping issues with your seller in advance to save time and hassle.
	Remember too that sellers often will allow for a percentage of damage to tiles during the shipping process.  Make sure this issue is well understood between you and your seller.  And make sure to adjust the square footage of your order to make sure that there aren’t any shortages as a result of allowable damage during shipping.
