Terrazzo floors are like snowflakes – each one is unique. These classic Italian floors combine materials such as marble, glass, quartz, glass, and granite and should be treated with care. Since they are vulnerable to build-up of harsh chemicals used in cleaning or damage from traffic and chipping, they may require occasional repair and eventually restoration. It is essential to find experts who have extensive experience with terrazzo floor restoration to give new life to your floor.
What Kind of Damage Does Your Floor Have?
Regular wear and tear over a number of years can rob the luster of even the best flooring. If your floors sustain a lot of traffic or harsh cleaners have been used on your floor, a professional can help reverse the damage. Some new homeowners may notice that there is a beautiful terrazzo floor underneath a living room carpet that has been nailed to the floor. Experts in terrazzo floor restoration can diagnose the problem and find the best solution.
How to Deal with Build-up
Many floor cleaners will make your floors look bright in the short-term but can make your surfaces vulnerable to discoloration and cloudiness in the longer-term with buildup from wax and soap scum. If you notice that your Terrazzo floor doesn’t quite have the shine that it once did and has yellowish tones, you may have to have your floor stripped. You will need to use the services of professionals in terrazzo floor restoration to successfully remove this buildup entirely and restore your floors to their former beauty.
Protect your Terrazzo Floors
Once you have had your Terrazzo floor restored, it is important to take steps to keep it looking its best. Use cleaners that do not create buildup and have professionals apply sealants after restoration is complete to protect your floor from staining and damage.
