Terrazzo Floor Restoration Process Mount Vernon

The Complete Terrazzo Restoration Process

First, we assess your floors to understand exactly what we’re working with. Every terrazzo floor is different, and the restoration approach depends on the type of terrazzo, age, and current condition.

Next, we remove any existing coatings, wax, or sealers that are hiding the real terrazzo underneath. Then comes the grinding phase, where we use diamond-impregnated discs to remove surface damage and level any uneven areas.

The polishing process follows, using progressively finer grits until we achieve the desired shine level. Finally, we apply a penetrating sealer that protects your investment while allowing the floor to breathe naturally.

Yes, we regularly restore terrazzo floors that have been hidden under carpet, tile, or other coverings for decades. Many Mount Vernon buildings have original terrazzo that owners don’t even know exists.Our restoration process removes adhesive residue, carpet pad remnants, and any damage from the covering installation. We use specialized stripping agents and grinding techniques to get down to the original terrazzo surface.Once cleaned and restored, these “hidden” terrazzo floors often look better than when they were first installed, since modern polishing techniques can achieve higher shine levels than were possible decades ago.
We use a computer color-matching system similar to what paint stores use, combined with an extensive archive of marble chips and aggregates. We take a small sample of your existing terrazzo to create an exact color match.For the aggregate (stone chips), we compare your floor against our collection to find the closest match. Sometimes we can source the exact original materials, especially for newer installations.We always create test patches before doing the full repair to ensure the match is perfect. The goal is repairs that blend seamlessly with your existing floor, not patches that stand out.
Restored terrazzo floors are actually very low-maintenance. Regular sweeping and damp mopping with a pH-neutral cleaner is usually all that’s needed for daily care.Avoid acidic cleaners like vinegar or harsh chemicals that can etch the surface. The protective sealer we apply helps prevent staining, but spills should still be cleaned up promptly.Professional re-polishing is typically needed every 1-2 years in high-traffic areas, but this is a simple process compared to the initial restoration. Well-maintained terrazzo can last decades between major restoration work.
