We Know Terrazzo Inside and Out

Diamond Stone Restorations Corp has been restoring terrazzo floors throughout the NYC metro area for years. We’ve seen every type of damage, every failed DIY attempt, and every shortcut “restoration” that made things worse.

White Plains commercial buildings and homes have unique challenges. High foot traffic in office lobbies, salt damage from winter weather, and decades of improper maintenance. We’ve handled it all.

Our team uses professional-grade diamond grinding equipment and techniques that actually work. Not the buffer-and-polish shortcuts that leave you calling someone else in two years.

Terrazzo Floor Restoration Process White Plains

Here's Exactly What We Do

First, we assess your floors and give you a straight answer about what’s realistic. No overselling, no promises of perfection on 80-year-old floors that have been through hell.

We start with diamond grinding to remove the damaged surface layer. This isn’t gentle buffing – we’re actually removing scratches, stains, and years of wear. Then we move through progressively finer grits, honing the surface smooth.

The polishing phase brings back that mirror-like finish terrazzo is famous for. We use diamond polishing compounds, not cheap powders that wear off in months. Finally, we apply a penetrating sealer that protects against future stains and etching.

Most White Plains projects take 2-4 days depending on square footage and condition. You’ll get a detailed timeline upfront, and we stick to it.

What's Included in Professional Restoration

Complete surface restoration using diamond grinding and polishing. Crack and chip repair with color-matched materials. Stain removal that actually works. Protective sealing that lasts.

White Plains buildings often have terrazzo in high-traffic areas like lobbies, corridors, and retail spaces. These floors take a beating from foot traffic, salt, and spills. Our restoration process handles all of it.

We also work on residential terrazzo that’s been hidden under carpet for decades. Those floors usually need extensive repair work, but the results are worth it. Original terrazzo from the 1940s and 50s was built to last – it just needs proper restoration.

You’re not getting a band-aid solution. This is complete restoration that addresses the root problems and gives you floors that’ll look great for years.

How much does terrazzo floor restoration cost in White Plains?

Professional terrazzo restoration typically runs $3-8 per square foot in the White Plains area, depending on the condition of your floors and the scope of work needed. That’s a fraction of what you’d pay for complete replacement. The final cost depends on factors like square footage, how much repair work is needed, and whether we’re dealing with heavy staining or damage. We provide detailed estimates upfront so there are no surprises. Most of our White Plains clients find that restoration costs 60-80% less than tearing out and installing new flooring. Plus you keep the original character and craftsmanship that makes terrazzo special.
Most terrazzo restoration projects in White Plains take 2-4 days, depending on the size of the area and the condition of the floors. We work efficiently but don’t cut corners on quality. Day one usually involves assessment, setup, and beginning the grinding process. Days two and three cover the detailed honing and polishing work. If repairs are needed for cracks or chips, that might add a day. We schedule projects to minimize disruption to your business or home life. For commercial spaces, we can often work evenings or weekends. You’ll get a detailed timeline before we start so you can plan accordingly.
Properly restored terrazzo floors are not inherently slippery. The key is using the right sealing products and avoiding wax-based finishes that create slick surfaces. We use penetrating sealers that protect the stone without creating a surface coating that can become slippery when wet. The natural texture of terrazzo, combined with proper sealing, provides good traction for normal use. For high-traffic commercial areas in White Plains, we can adjust the final polish level to balance appearance with safety requirements. The goal is floors that look great and meet your safety standards.
Diamond-polished terrazzo floors typically maintain their appearance for 8-10 years in normal residential use, and 5-7 years in high-traffic commercial settings like White Plains office buildings or retail spaces. The longevity depends on foot traffic, maintenance practices, and environmental factors. Floors that are properly maintained with regular cleaning and prompt attention to spills last longer. When your floors eventually need attention, it’s usually just a polish-up rather than complete restoration. That’s much less expensive and time-consuming than the initial restoration process.
Yes, we regularly restore terrazzo floors that have been hidden under carpet, vinyl, or other coverings for decades. These projects are some of our most dramatic transformations. Floors that have been covered often have damage from adhesives, tack strips, or moisture issues. We can handle nail holes, adhesive residue, staining, and minor cracks. The key is proper assessment to determine what’s salvageable. Many White Plains homes and buildings have beautiful original terrazzo hidden under newer flooring. Once restored, these floors become stunning focal points that add significant value to the property.
Cleaning only addresses surface dirt and grime. Restoration actually removes the damaged surface layer and rebuilds the floor’s appearance from the ground up. If your terrazzo is just dirty but not scratched or stained, professional cleaning might be enough. But if you see dullness, scratches, etching from spills, or embedded stains, you need actual restoration. We use diamond grinding to physically remove the damaged surface, then hone and polish to create a new surface. It’s like having new floors without the cost and disruption of replacement. Cleaning can’t fix scratches, etching, or deep stains – restoration can.
