that looks about right for travertine it just needs grouting and as long as there is no lipping it should look ok.It would have been better if the tiler graded the stone before fixing and had used wedges instead of spacers.The grey comes from the silicate that is natural to stone.Make sure you do not use too much stain stop as you will darken the colour,max 3 coats

You would have been better buying the Trav from Tile Giant at around £30m 20140502_174203.jpg 20140416_173000.jpg 20140416_173022.jpg
