You know terrazzo, right? If you haven’t met this vintage beauty, allow us to introduce you.

Terrazzo is a composite material featuring a medley of chips of marble, quartz, granite, glass and shells poured with a cement or epoxy binder. It can come in any myriad of colors! Terrazzo is a flooring choice that has been popular for large public spaces like restaurants, airports and even schools for years because of its incredible durability. And because it is typically poured into a cast, it doesn’t have pesky grout lines, making upkeep even easier! 

Terrazzo has seen a resurgence in popularity in recent years, with the fun pattern making its way into everything from stationery and clothing to mugs, wallpaper and more!

Reasons We Love Terrazzo 

At Bizaillion Stone Floor Restoration, we loved terrazzo long before it was trendy. It’s one of the main stone flooring types for which we do cleanings and restoration. Here’s why:

  1. Durability. Terrazzo is one of the most durable flooring materials available today. Once sealed properly, the material is impervious to water and stain damage. It also does not chip away like other materials. Which leads us to #2.
  2. Value. The price per square foot is higher than some other materials, but because it is so durable (rarely needs repairs), it’s a great long-term investment.
  3. Versatility. Since it consists of marble, granite, quartz, or glass chips in an epoxy resin binder, it allows for a lot of variation in color and movement. Because it is manufactured by mixing these different elements together, you can choose almost any design. Seals, logos, sparkle, no sparkle…the sky is the limit!
  4. Environmentally friendly. It is a beneficial material that can help in the design of sustainable buildings. To preserve scarce materials, terrazzo is a great alternative to other flooring types. It can consist of recycled materials that have a positive impact on the health of people and the environment.

Caring for Terrazzo

Just like marble and travertine, your terrazzo floors will eventually need professional cleaning in order to look their best. Terrazzo cleaning by Bizaillion Stone Floor Restoration is the way to go because, as we have mentioned, we know terrazzo. 

Our commercial-grade equipment produces a better result than anything you could accomplish on your own. Our special cleaners emulsify grease and dirt build-up, lifting it from the surface of the floor.

A properly restored Terrazzo floor will look beautiful for up to 10-20 years, making it one of the easiest floors to maintain. Talk about great value! When we restore a terrazzo floor, we strip off all the wax and diamond hone the floors to reveal the original stone. We have a whole process for cleaning, honing, polishing and sealing that we find fascinating! We know not everyone finds conversation about diamond abrasive pads and lippage removal stimulating. But if you’re anything like us, visit our Terrazzo Restoration and Protection page for the full story. 🙂
