Hello everyone,
I plan to install travertine in the bathroom, which I will also seal. Does anyone have long-term experience with travertine in a bathroom and can share how sensitive the stone really is? I am aware that travertine is sensitive to acids. It would only be cleaned with special natural stone care products and always dried immediately after showering (we already do this with our tiled shower). Can you actually see every stain right away if something spills, or is this not a problem if the surface is sealed and the liquid is absorbed immediately? Opinions on this vary widely...
Thank you in advance for any advice!

And, do you still remember how you actually wrote that – I mean what the spell "correction" turned into a "rent" ? No
That’s a strange question.
Honestly, I can’t think of anything that could ruin a spelling "correction" in this context.

Since we are now facing this decision as well, I would like to explore the topic a bit further.
KlaRa, do you mean that travertine could delaminate when used with underfloor heating? Or what exactly could happen?
I would like to have it in the entrance and the kitchen. Actually, also in the bathroom... "actually," if it were as easy to maintain with water as porcelain stoneware.

As a general rule, acidic cleaning agents—as well as alkaline ones—are not suitable for underfloor heating (due to possible material leaching, mostly clay minerals) and can cause damage.

I like various natural stones, but for practical reasons, we decided differently:
Instead of natural stone for the kitchen countertop, we chose ceramic with a travertine look, and in the hallway/pantry, instead of Jura stone, we opted for beige limestone tiles from Steuler. Unfortunately, we couldn’t find anything comparable for the bathroom tiles.
