Travertine pavers are one of the most sought-after materials for Los Angeles pool decks, outdoor patios, and driveways. Prime Building Materials stocks travertine in multiple finishes and sizes at wholesale prices for contractors and homeowners.
Travertine's natural porosity keeps it 20–30°F cooler than concrete on hot LA summer days — the #1 reason it dominates Southern California pool decks. Available in brushed, tumbled, and honed finishes with non-slip textures for safety.
Travertine pavers in 16"×16", 12"×24", and Versailles pattern sets create dramatic patio and driveway surfaces. The warm ivory, walnut, and noce tones complement Los Angeles stucco and Spanish-style homes beautifully.
We stock 2cm and 3cm travertine in standard cuts, Versailles/French pattern, and bullnose coping. Finishes include tumbled (rustic), brushed (slightly textured), and filled & honed (smooth contemporary). Custom cuts available.
Prime Building Materials offers wholesale pricing on travertine pavers for contractors and competitive retail pricing for homeowners. Order by the pallet for volume discounts. Call (818) 503-4242 for a quote on your square footage.
Travertine has been used for centuries in Mediterranean climates similar to Southern California's. Its low heat absorption, natural beauty, and durability in freeze-thaw cycles make it ideal for Los Angeles pool decks and outdoor living spaces. Unlike concrete that can crack in LA's heat, travertine expands and contracts naturally. Properly sealed travertine is easy to maintain and resists pool chemicals, salt water, and UV fading.

Flagstone is one of the most versatile natural stones available for Los Angeles landscaping and hardscape projects. It's a flat, irregular-shaped stone quarried from sedimentary rock — typically sandstone, quartzite, or limestone — and it's been used in Southern California gardens, patios, and pathways for decades. Its natural variation in color and texture makes every installation unique.
Prime Building Materials stocks flagstone in both irregular (natural edge) cuts for organic, rustic layouts and cut/dimensional flagstone for cleaner, more contemporary patterns. Available in warm buff, gray, and rust tones that complement Spanish-style and contemporary homes throughout the San Fernando Valley and greater Los Angeles.
Flagstone pricing varies by stone type, origin, thickness, and cut. Irregular natural flagstone is typically less expensive than precision-cut dimensional stone. Pricing is sold by the ton or pallet for contractor orders.
Call (818) 503-4242 or visit our North Hollywood showroom for current flagstone pricing and availability. We carry multiple varieties and can help you match the right stone to your project, budget, and design style.
Limestone is a classic natural stone that delivers a refined, timeless look at a lower price point than travertine. It's a sedimentary rock composed primarily of calcium carbonate — naturally smooth, consistently colored, and exceptionally durable. In Los Angeles, limestone pavers are popular for pool decks, interior floors, entry courtyards, and formal patio surfaces where a clean, elegant aesthetic is the goal.
Limestone comes in cream, beige, silver-gray, and golden tones that work well with contemporary, Mediterranean, and transitional home styles throughout LA and the San Fernando Valley. Unlike travertine, limestone has minimal natural pitting — giving it a smoother, more uniform surface.
Important for pool decks: limestone is slightly denser and cooler underfoot than concrete, but it is not as heat-dissipating as travertine. For hot LA pool decks in full sun, travertine is still the better performer. For shaded patios, courtyards, and interior/exterior transitions, limestone is an excellent and cost-effective choice.
Call (818) 503-4242 to check current limestone availability and pricing at our North Hollywood and Sun Valley locations.
Travertine coping is the finishing edge piece that caps the perimeter of a pool, spa, raised planter, or retaining wall. In Los Angeles, travertine pool coping is one of the most requested products for pool remodels and new builds — it ties the pool deck surface to the pool edge with a smooth, rounded lip that is safe underfoot and heat-resistant in the Southern California sun.
For a cohesive pool design, coping and deck pavers should come from the same stone family and ideally the same batch. Prime Building Materials stocks travertine deck pavers and coping from matching quarries so your edge and field blend naturally.
Finishes for coping include tumbled (rustic, slip-resistant), brushed (light texture), and filled and honed (smooth contemporary). We recommend tumbled or brushed for pool coping due to slip resistance.
Call (818) 503-4242 or visit our North Hollywood showroom to see coping samples in person alongside our deck travertine.

| Stone Type | Best For | Heat Performance | Maintenance | Price Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Travertine | Pool decks, patios, driveways | Excellent — stays cool in LA heat | Seal every 2-3 years | $$-$$$ |
| Flagstone | Pathways, patios, garden stepping stones | Good — thicker pieces retain less heat | Low — minimal sealing needed | $-$$ |
| Limestone | Courtyards, shaded patios, formal entry | Good — cooler than concrete | Seal annually — more porous | $$ |
| Slate | High-traffic areas, covered patios, walls | Moderate — low porosity but absorbs heat | Low — naturally dense | $$ |
Pricing ranges are relative. Call (818) 503-4242 for current per-square-foot pricing based on your stone selection and order quantity.
Travertine is the top choice for Los Angeles pool decks. Its natural porosity means it stays 20-30 degrees cooler than concrete in direct sun — a critical difference during LA summers. It's also slip-resistant in wet conditions and has been used for pool surrounds in Southern California for decades. Flagstone is a good secondary option for more informal or rustic pool designs. Limestone works well for shaded pool areas. For pool coping specifically, Prime stocks travertine bullnose coping that matches our deck pavers.
Both are calcium carbonate-based sedimentary stones, but they form differently and perform differently. Travertine has natural pitting and a more varied, organic texture — the pores allow heat to escape quickly, making it cooler underfoot. Limestone is denser with a smoother, more uniform surface and minimal natural pitting. Limestone is slightly more formal looking and typically less expensive than travertine. For pool decks in full Southern California sun, travertine performs better on heat. For shaded patios and interior-exterior transitions, limestone is an excellent and cost-effective alternative.
Yes. Prime Building Materials stocks travertine pool coping in bullnose, cantilevered, and flat cap profiles. Common sizes include 6"x12" and 12"x12" bullnose for residential pools and 12"x24" flat cap for raised walls and planters. Our coping is sourced to match our travertine deck pavers so your pool edge and field stone coordinate naturally. Visit our North Hollywood showroom to see coping samples in person, or call (818) 503-4242 for sizing and availability.

Travertine pavers are the most popular natural stone choice for Los Angeles driveways. They handle vehicle weight well in 3cm (1.25") thickness, hold up in Southern California heat without significant expansion or cracking, and add significant curb appeal. Flagstone in a cut dimensional format is another option for lower-traffic driveways. Avoid irregular flagstone for driveways — uneven surfaces create tripping hazards and are harder to maintain under vehicle load. Call (818) 503-4242 to discuss the right stone and thickness for your specific driveway project.
