TERRAZZO REFINISHING
Terrazzo can become lifeless through daily wear and tear or from years under carpet and glue. Rose Restoration can revive your terrazzo using the best methods, such as diamond polishing and silicone impregnators to prevent staining.
Before covering a terrazzo floor, consider restoring it as we can help your floors regain their mid-century modern glory with a polished or honed finish. To keep terrazzo looking its best, just daily sweeping and mopping are needed—no more stripping and waxing! We restore terrazzo using the same process as marble restoration.
We are knowledgeable stone experts, highly qualified to resolve any terrazzo issues.
Rose Restoration has the expertise for all your terrazzo tile refinishing needs.

TERRAZZO PROBLEMS
Terrazzo, a unique stone comprised of marble chips in various sizes and colors set in a cement or epoxy base, can lose its appeal and become dull, scratched, and dirty-looking. Other terrazzo problems include holes from carpet tacks or nails, cracks and chips, and stains.
A beautiful shine on terrazzo only lasts a short while if improper cleaning and restoration methods are used. Dirt, grime, and other contaminants can become embedded in coatings, making the floor unsightly and unsanitary. Coatings must be completely removed and replaced as often as every three months. If not properly removed, each strip-and-wax cycle adds a new layer of buildup that easily scratches and scuffs.
TERRAZZO REPAIR AND RESTORATION
Fortunately, all these issues with terrazzo can be resolved. There’s a reason terrazzo is found in homes, apartments, restaurants, stores, hotels, hospitals, schools, and busy office environments. When properly repaired and restored, it is incredibly beautiful and resilient.
Rose Restoration provides expert terrazzo repair services. We can fill in chips and cracks, and for holes, use tinted filler with aggregates (little pieces of marble) that seamlessly patch your terrazzo. Once your floor is honed and polished, the repair site blends right in with the surrounding finish.
Rose Restoration also offers expert terrazzo restoration services. We can virtually erase the scuffed and scratched surface layer with our grinding and honing processes, revealing the brand-new stone underneath. With the damage removed, we can hone and polish your terrazzo to a velvety smooth satin/matte finish or a glossy, elegant polished finish. To help inhibit stains, we apply an impregnating sealer.
TERRAZZO MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
Regular cleaning and janitorial services are valuable for simple, day-to-day care of terrazzo floors. However, as problems develop, dissatisfaction with the floors’ appearance grows, leading to the need for another round of professional restoration. With our regularly scheduled maintenance program, your terrazzo floors can look great all the time, eliminating the need for frequent restorations.
SPECIALTY SOLUTIONS
To make terrazzo shine, it is commonly coated with wax. However, waxed terrazzo surfaces tend to collect dirt, yellow over time, and require a perpetual—and costly—cycle of stripping and re-waxing.
Rose Restoration offers solutions that break this cycle, saving you thousands in annual maintenance costs while achieving better results. Our method creates a protective and beautiful finish that doesn’t yellow, lasts for years under heavy traffic, increases slip resistance, and prevents the spread of secondary infections through antimicrobial properties.
