Terrazzo is a durable and decorative composite material made by embedding chips of marble, quartz, granite, glass, or other aggregates into a cement or resin binder, then grinding and polishing the surface to a smooth, glossy finish.

Types of Terrazzo
-
Cementitious Terrazzo: Uses Portland cement as a binder; ideal for both indoor and outdoor applications due to its durability and resistance to weather. It is thicker and heavier, but installation is labor-intensive.
-
Epoxy Terrazzo: A thinner, lighter option that uses epoxy resin with various color and texture options. It offers faster installation and is popular indoors but is not recommended for outdoor use because epoxy can peel or fade.
-
Precast Terrazzo Tiles: Manufactured off-site, these offer an easier installation alternative but lack the seamless look of poured terrazzo.
Terrazzo offers a unique combination of beauty, functionality, and sustainability, making it a timeless choice for elegant flooring and surfaces in both historic and modern design contexts.
This blend of history, versatility, and durability explains its enduring popularity and recent resurgence in contemporary architecture and interior design, especially appealing to those seeking a customizable, long-lasting, and low-maintenance surface.

What Is Terrazzo?
Terrazzo is a unique composite material made from marble chips of varying sizes and colors, bound together with either a traditional cement base or a modern resin/epoxy base. Its durability and decorative appeal make it a popular choice for both residential and commercial spaces.
Restoration Process
Terrazzo restoration follows similar techniques used for marble and granite. However, many terrazzo surfaces are coated with wax, which can trap dirt and discolor over time. These coatings often require stripping before reapplication.
All Stone Restore offers a natural polishing alternative that eliminates the need for wax, reduces long-term maintenance, and enhances the stone’s finish. Whether you prefer a high-gloss shine or a soft matte look, we can tailor the finish to your style.
