Terrazzo is a highly durable and attractive flooring material made from marble chips set within a binding surface. It is commonly found in both residential and commercial properties due to its strength and decorative appearance.

Over time, terrazzo floors can become scratched, stained and lose their original shine. Dirt can become embedded in the surface, leaving the floor looking dull and worn.
Professional terrazzo floor cleaning and restoration can bring the surface back to life, restoring its smooth finish and natural gloss.

At Masons Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning Ltd, we provide specialist terrazzo floor cleaning, polishing and restoration services across Durham and surrounding areas for both domestic and commercial properties.

Professional Terrazzo Floor Services

Terrazzo requires specialist equipment and knowledge to restore it correctly without damaging the surface.
Our terrazzo floor services include:

• Deep terrazzo floor cleaning
• Terrazzo diamond polishing
• Terrazzo honing and finishing
• Diamond grinding for damaged floors
• Chip and crack repairs
• Terrazzo sealing and protection

Each floor is carefully assessed to determine the most suitable restoration process.

Terrazzo Floor Cleaning

Over time, terrazzo floors can become porous and absorb dirt, oils and contaminants, causing the surface to appear dull and discoloured.
Professional cleaning removes embedded dirt and old residues, restoring the natural colour of the floor and preparing it for polishing or sealing.

Diamond Grinding & Terrazzo Restoration

If the floor is heavily worn, uneven or damaged, a full restoration process may be required.
Diamond grinding uses specialist machines to remove a thin layer from the surface of the terrazzo. This eliminates deep scratches, surface damage and uneven areas before further finishing stages.
Once the surface is level and clean, it can be honed and polished to achieve the desired finish.

Terrazzo Polishing

Polishing restores the shine and smoothness of terrazzo flooring.
Using diamond abrasives and polishing compounds, the surface is refined through multiple stages to create a high-quality finish.
Polishing enhances the natural appearance of the marble chips within the terrazzo and can produce:

• High gloss finish
• Satin finish
• Low sheen natural finish

Terrazzo Honing

Honing is used to smooth the surface and remove light scratches and wear.
This process creates a more subtle finish than polishing, leaving the floor with a consistent, natural appearance.
Honed terrazzo is often preferred in areas where a less reflective and more slip-resistant surface is required.

Terrazzo Chip & Crack Repairs

Terrazzo floors can become damaged over time, particularly when previous floor coverings have been removed or in high-traffic areas.
Chips, cracks and holes can often be repaired using specialist colour-matched materials designed to blend with the original terrazzo.
These repairs help restore the appearance of the floor and prevent further deterioration.

Terrazzo Sealing & Protection

After cleaning or restoration, applying a professional sealer is essential to protect the surface.
Terrazzo is porous, meaning it can absorb liquids and become stained if left untreated. Sealing helps prevent moisture, oil and dirt from penetrating the surface.
Sealing also makes regular cleaning easier and helps maintain the restored finish.
