Citiscapes, LLC
Travertine is a natural stone that's been used in outdoor spaces for centuries — and it's one of the most popular materials in Phoenix for good reason. It stays cooler underfoot than concrete, handles Arizona heat well, and adds a high-end look that's hard to replicate with manufactured products.
How travertine installation works: Travertine is set on a prepared concrete or compacted base depending on the application. Tiles are cut to fit, mortar-set, and grouted with a fill compatible with natural stone. Proper sealing is critical outdoors — it protects against staining, moisture absorption, and the daily UV exposure Phoenix delivers year-round.
Citiscapes installs travertine tile for pool decks, patios, walkways, and outdoor living areas throughout Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, and greater Phoenix. We source quality travertine in a range of finishes — brushed, tumbled, and honed — and help clients select the right profile for their space and use.
One of travertine's biggest advantages in Arizona is surface temperature. In direct sun, it stays noticeably cooler than concrete or dark-colored pavers — which makes it an especially smart choice around pools and any area where people walk barefoot. It's also non-slip when properly finished, which matters for wet environments.
Travertine is a natural material, so no two tiles are identical. That variation is part of the appeal — and part of why the planning and layout process matters. We work through that before installation begins so the finished product is exactly what you had in mind.
Proper installation is what separates travertine that looks great in five years from travertine that cracks, stains, or shifts. We prep the base correctly, use the right setting material, and seal every project before we leave the site.

Thank you to Citiscapes especially to Khendall and the crews, Gerardo, Armando and more. They work so hard, very professional, kind, easy to work with. I highly recommend the Citiscapes! We will have the second phase of remodeling hopefully in the winter time. Thanks to the whole crew!👍👍👍
Met with Kendal and liked him right away. So professional and knowledgeable. I told him that I didn't know what I wanted but showed him the area and he designed it perfectly for me. Great Job.
I recently had Citiscapes work on my irrigation system and add some plants and landscape lighting. They did an excellent job and were a pleasure to work with!
