Pool Patio Pavers | Travertine

by Paulene

Hi,

Love your site! Such great info! I was wondering if you could provide some helpful suggestions for us.

We installed a small in ground pool due to our small backyard. We have an existing EP Henry patio in Harvest Blend pavers. We are now trying to decide how we want to finish the pool decking. The space is so close together that I feel they should uniformly flow together.

I REALLY LOVE the Travertine pavers for the pool deck but not sure how that will or if it will tie in with the Ep Henry patio. We cannot afford to add the expense of redoing the patio in Travertine to match right now. Do you have any suggestions? Should we do the Travertine for pool deck or continue the Ep Henry from patio onto the pool deck? I have never been happy with the patio due to how the pavers fade. I appreciate any help you may have. I do have some photos if it would help.

Thanks,
Paulene

Pavers Or Travertine
by: Susan

Hi Paulene,
Thanks for the compliments on my site!

I understand your dilemma. Probably the pavers and the travertine will not look that great together, particularly if they are near each other. And it doesn't sound like very much fun to add more pavers if you are not happy with them.

If you think you will be able to replace the pavers in the future, and you love the travertine, why don't you select a travertine color that looks best with your surroundings/house and use that? Perhaps there would be a color that looks decent with the pavers also so that it would be an acceptable solution for now. If the colors blend, it might be OK.

I am working on a pool project and travertine has just been installed. I cannot begin to describe how absolutely beautiful it is. In addition, it's cool on your feet.

I hope this was helpful!

Susan
