Terrazzo

Why is terrazzo experiencing a resurgence in popularity in industrial, commercial and historical projects? It’s one of the most durable flooring materials available, both stain and waterproof once sealed. What’s more, it can be refinished and polished to look fresh, despite frequent wear.

Terrazzo has a distinctive look, made with chips of marble, quartz, granite, or even glass set into a matrix of concrete or epoxy resin. And with proper maintenance and care, your terrazzo investment can look good as new for many years to come.

Is your terrazzo flooring not giving off that shine like it used to? Do you struggle with discoloration?

Whether dulled by years of traffic or time spent hidden under carpet or tile, Stone Medic’s team of experts can assist you with polishing new life back into your terrazzo floors.

Unsealed terrazzo absorbs dirt, stains and contaminates—which make cleaning embedded stains extremely difficult. Sealing your terrazzo floors ensures they’re protected against stains and water damage.

These finishes need to be maintained, and will need honing from time to time, or will need to be re-polished and sealed. Our team of experts provide sealing services that will keep your terrazzo looking brand new. 

High foot traffic is a threat to any terrazzo flooring—particularly in commercial settings.

Our experts are trained and equipped to clean terrazzo surfaces in the most efficient and safe manner to ensure a glistening finish for long-lasting results. For routine cleaning, we recommend daily dust mopping to remove dust particles and grit attached to the surface, and hand cleaning with a neutral PH cleaner as needed.

Are you looking to clean or restore a terrazzo floor in your historic home? If your terrazzo was hidden under carpet or some other surface, it is likely damaged with holes from carpet tacks or nails, deep scratches, ugly stains and unsightly cracks and chips. 

However you don’t need to replace or re hide your terrazzo. Our highly trained team can restore old terrazzo flooring to like-new condition.

For terrazzo floors subject to high traffic—such as schools, grocery stores, hospitals—we recommend a regularly scheduled maintenance program to keep them looking fresh. 

In between regular professional maintenance, avoid the use of harsh cleaning products which can damage terrazzo surfaces. Use cleaners with a neutral PH level when scrubbing or mopping, along with a water-based sealer.
