Terrazzo Floor Polishing Process Somers

Exactly How We Restore Your Floors

We start with a thorough assessment of your terrazzo’s condition and any repairs needed. If you’re uncovering floors from under carpet, we’ll carefully remove tack strips without creating expensive hole repairs.

The restoration uses heavy diamond grinding equipment to actually remove the damaged surface layer—typically about the thickness of a credit card. This eliminates scratches, etching, and years of wear that buffing simply can’t address.

Multiple polishing passes with progressively finer diamond grits create the final mirror finish. We end with a penetrating sealer that protects against stains while allowing the terrazzo to breathe naturally—crucial in New York’s changing climate.

Most Somers homes take 2-3 days for completion. You’ll have access to other areas of your home throughout the process, and we protect all surrounding surfaces from dust.

Terrazzo Repair Services Somers NY

Complete Restoration, Not Just Polishing

Our terrazzo restoration service handles everything your floors need. Crack repairs, chip filling, and hole patching use color-matched materials that disappear into the existing pattern. We can remove old adhesive, fix carpet tack damage, and address any structural issues.

The Somers housing market makes terrazzo restoration particularly valuable. With median home values over $650,000, preserving original architectural features like terrazzo floors protects your investment while avoiding the disruption of full replacement.

Many Somers properties were built during the 1950s-70s when terrazzo was a premium flooring choice. These floors were designed to last generations, and proper restoration extends that lifespan while bringing back the original elegance that made terrazzo so desirable.

Our penetrating sealers work especially well in the Northeast climate, protecting against winter salt damage and humidity changes without creating the maintenance problems of surface coatings.

What does terrazzo floor restoration cost in Somers, NY?

Professional terrazzo restoration runs $4-$8 per square foot in the Somers area, compared to $25-$50 per square foot for replacement. A typical 300-square-foot area costs $1,200-$2,400 to restore versus $7,500-$15,000 to replace. The exact price depends on your floor’s condition, any repairs needed, and the finish level you want. Extensive crack repair or removing years of wax buildup can add to the cost, but it’s still dramatically less than replacement. Given Somers’ property values, terrazzo restoration typically pays for itself through increased home value and eliminated maintenance costs. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for.

How long do restored terrazzo floors last in Somers homes?

Properly restored terrazzo floors last 8-10 years in residential settings before needing another full restoration. High-traffic areas like entryways might need light re-polishing every 3-4 years, but this costs a fraction of full restoration. The key is using genuine diamond grinding and polishing, not just buffing with compounds. When done correctly, restored terrazzo is actually more durable than the original factory finish because we remove all the accumulated damage and create a perfectly smooth surface. Between restorations, maintenance is incredibly simple—just sweep and damp mop with neutral cleaners. No waxing, no special products, no professional cleaning services. This makes terrazzo one of the most cost-effective flooring options for Somers homeowners over the long term.

Can you restore terrazzo floors that were under carpet?

Absolutely, and we do this frequently in Somers homes. Many beautiful terrazzo floors were covered during the carpeting trend of the 1980s-90s. The key is proper removal of carpet tack strips and adhesive without damaging the terrazzo underneath. We cut tack strip nails flush with the surface rather than pulling them out, which prevents costly hole repairs. Any existing holes, adhesive residue, or damage from the carpet installation gets addressed during restoration. The results often exceed what the floors looked like when new. Somers homeowners are often amazed to discover gorgeous terrazzo under old carpeting. While these floors typically need extensive restoration due to decades of neglect, they’re usually in better structural condition than floors that have been exposed to years of foot traffic and cleaning products.

Is diamond-polished terrazzo slippery when wet?

No, properly restored terrazzo with diamond polishing actually provides excellent slip resistance, even when wet. The smooth, flat surface creates maximum contact between shoes and flooring, meeting OSHA safety standards for commercial use. The confusion comes from old terrazzo floors maintained with wax coatings, which can indeed be slippery. Our diamond restoration process eliminates wax entirely, creating a naturally slip-resistant surface that’s safe for kitchens, bathrooms, and entryways. This is especially important in Somers homes where terrazzo often appears in high-moisture areas. The restored surface provides safety without sacrificing the elegant appearance that makes terrazzo so desirable in upscale properties.

What's the difference between cleaning and restoring terrazzo?

Cleaning only removes surface dirt, while restoration actually removes a thin layer of the terrazzo surface to eliminate embedded stains, scratches, and etching. It’s like refinishing hardwood floors—you’re creating a brand new surface. Professional restoration uses diamond grinding to literally resurface the floor, followed by multiple polishing steps with progressively finer grits. This process removes damage that’s accumulated over decades and cannot be addressed with cleaning alone. If your terrazzo looks dull, scratched, or stained despite cleaning, restoration is the only solution. Many Somers homeowners try cleaning first, but restoration is what actually solves the underlying problems and creates a durable finish that lasts for years.
