What's a Mexican stone fountain without a splash of color and pattern? Enter Talavera tiles – hand-painted, vibrant, and a perfect match for the Mexican aesthetic. Use these tiles to decorate the area around your fountain, creating a stunning visual contrast that enhances the overall charm of your outdoor space. For those seeking a blend of tradition and sophistication, Colonial-style fountains are the epitome of timeless design. These fountains, inspired by Mexican colonial architecture, bring a sense of history to your backyard. Imagine sipping your morning coffee surrounded by the echoes of a bygone era – that's the magic a Colonial-style fountain can bring. Mexican stone fountains go beyond being mere water features; they are storytellers of culture, craftsmanship, and nature's beauty. So, as you contemplate enhancing your outdoor haven, consider the allure of Cantera stone, the drama of volcanic features, and the vibrant touch of Talavera tiles. Transform your patio or garden into a Mexican masterpiece, where every fountain tells a tale of elegance, history, and the artistry of outdoor living.

Saltillo and Mexican Tile: Protecting These Works of Art
 Image Source: Saltillo Restaurant Tile– PANCHO’S VEGAS
When it comes to remodeling or updating the look of a home or business, there are so many options to choose from. Paint, lighting, furniture, flooring…the list goes on. Dependent on the color scheme and overall look you are trying to achieve, there are a wealth of selections available.
Personally, one design we always enjoy working with is Saltillo and Mexican tiles. Their depth of color and beautiful artistry are unmatched. The applications are far reaching, from flooring, walls, fireplaces, fountains, residential as well as commercial. These works of art enhance the beauty of any space.
“With this staircase, Saltillo tile is used as stair treads while the risers are custom painted Talavera tiles. Resting at the top of the staircase is a custom, hand-carved stone fountain created from Cantera. Sitting in the middle of Pancho’s main dining room, this staircase is the focal point for the restaurant.”  Read more about this at SALTILLO RESTAURANT TILE – PANCHO’S VEGAS
What a statement piece! Imagine dining in this restaurant and marveling its beauty. Saltillo tile, when sealed properly, requires minimal maintenance due to its warm blend of colors which conceal the appearance of dirt well.
“A good quality sealer can give you a very low maintenance floor for many years. Choosing a poor quality sealer will create many headaches and ongoing maintenance. If you are planning to seal an existing floor with a new sealer, it’s imperative that you apply sealer that is chemically compatible with the existing sealer on the floor. When in doubt, test an inconspicuous area first. If you plan on sealing a raw clay tile, save yourself time, money and headaches and purchase quality sealer. Qualities you should find in good sealer include: abrasion-resistance, non-yellowing, long life-span of at least 5-15 years, UV protection, multiple gloss finish options, and anti-skid alternatives. ” Find more cleaning and maintenance tips here
Although you can purchase and apply sealers yourself, you want to ensure the sealant is done correctly. If your Saltillo tile is not pre sealed, or if you are unsure, we recommend contacting a local Saltillo tile restoration company that can inspect your tile and see what type of sealant is already applied, if any. You do not want to mix different types of sealants. Since a professional Saltillo tile cleaning and restoration company is equipped with the proper tools, supplies and training, you will be guaranteed the best results possible for your stone.
If you would like to learn more about Saltillo and Mexican tile or to request a free quote, feel free to contact Orlando Stone Works at (407) 258-1190

For those who want something more dramatic than just plants and landscaping elements, adding a water feature can do just that. Water features such as fountains or bubbling ponds bring life and motion into your entryway while providing soothing sounds for visitors entering the home. When creating a water feature in your entrance area, research what type of pump you’ll need (if any), how much electricity it will require, what type of materials are needed for construction (e.g., concrete or steel), and if there are any other necessary components (such as lighting). With careful planning and research on materials needed, having a water feature in your entryway can give your home an inviting feel at first glance!
The entrance to your home is the first thing that visitors see. It can be a welcoming sight or an uninviting one, depending on how you choose to design it. A walkway can be the perfect way to make a good first impression. Incorporating plants and landscaping elements such as trees, shrubs, flowers, or water features can all be used to bring nature into the space. Adding decorative lightings like string lights, wall sconces, post lights or lanterns can provide drama and depth while also providing visibility at night. With careful planning and consideration of the materials needed for each element, you’ll be able to create an inviting atmosphere for visitors entering your home.
