Hi everyone,
I think I may have posted original thread in wrong location “everything else”
Forgive me, I’m New here.
Doing a Gunite / patio renovation soon and been obsessing over patio material. Looking for some advice.
My number one priority is cool feet.
I am in the northeast so have some fear about travertine - freeze thaw and also my wife doesn’t like the holes.
So I am thinking of marble something like this:
PAVERS - CREMA OLIVA - MARMIRO STONES
I can’t seem to find any temperature tests on marble. I have a few pieces of travertine and pavers in my backyard and so far I am not impressed. Greyed nickel techo bloc, platinum Cambridge and silver travertine (light and dark piece). The pavers both get hot especially the Cambridge. Techobloc has been okay outside of the recent 90d days. The darker silver travertine gets too hot to walk on as well. The lighter one barely acceptable at best.
I’m concerned because everywhere you read says travertine is amazing, yet my actually experience with these samples is not amazing. I’m afraid marble would be similar.
Any suggestions / experience with light colored marble? Thanks!
