Terrazzo Cleaning and Polishing

Restoring the Beauty of Your Terrazzo Floors

Terrazzo floors are known for their durability, sustainability, and timeless style. But over time, even terrazzo can lose its shine, become stained, or develop a dull, worn appearance—especially in high-traffic areas. The good news? Terrazzo doesn’t need to be replaced to look new again.

With the right equipment and expertise, a professional restoration contractor can deep clean and polish terrazzo to restore its clarity, smoothness, and original luster—without coatings or waxes that wear off quickly.

Deep Cleaning – Removing Embedded Soils and Grime

Over time, dirt and grime become embedded in terrazzo’s pores, especially if janitorial cleaning hasn’t been enough. Professionals use specialized equipment and cleaning agents to remove built-up residues without damaging the surface.

Diamond Polishing – Restoring Natural Shine Without Waxes

Unlike traditional waxing, diamond polishing uses industrial abrasives to gradually refine and smooth the terrazzo surface. This process brings out a natural, lasting shine that won’t yellow, peel, or trap dirt.

No Coatings Needed – End the Strip-and-Wax Cycle

Polished terrazzo doesn’t require wax or topical coatings to look great. A mechanically polished finish is easier to maintain, more sustainable, and offers long-term cost savings for both residential and commercial spaces.

Safe and Slip-Resistant – Shiny Doesn’t Mean Slippery

When done correctly, polished terrazzo remains slip-resistant and safe for foot traffic. The process enhances appearance without compromising safety.

Custom Finishes – From Soft Satin to Glossy Shine

Terrazzo can be polished to different levels of sheen based on your aesthetic preference and usage needs. A professional can tailor the finish to match your desired look and environment.
