Terrazzo Repair and Restoration / Minneapolis / St. Paul

Terrazzo

Terrazzo is a beautiful, resilient, low-maintenance flooring option, only people generally don’t realize this because terrazzo is so often subject to improper cleaning and care.

For example, most terrazzo floors have layer upon layer of old, yellowing waxes or coatings that have a tendency to collect dirt and become scuffed and scratched. In an attempt to improve the appearance of the floor, people then strip and re-wax the terrazzo. It looks decent for a little while, but then the whole process starts over again.

Waxing and stripping, waxing and stripping, ad nauseam, ad infinitum…

There is a Better Way

Terrazzo can be restored using the same process that is used in restoring marble and granite. It can be honed and polished, using a natural polishing process, to achieve a gloss or matte finish — according to your preference.

Save Time and Money

When terrazzo is refinished naturally, honing removes the uppermost layer, revealing the brand new layer underneath. Polishing to a gloss or matte finish gives your terrazzo the look you want and eliminates the need for stripping and coatings. With natural refinishing, you can reduce maintenance costs, save time, and have a clean, beautiful terrazzo floor that will wow your customers or guests.

A Little Bit About Terrazzo

Terrazzo is a unique stone finish that usually contains marble chips of different sizes and colors and is held together with a cement base or, in newer applications, held together with a resin or epoxy base. We educate our customers on the proper care and maintenance of terrazzo. We also recommend the appropriate cleaners and care products to keep your terrazzo looking like new with minimum maintenance.
