Terrazzo · Polishing
Terrazzo corridors dull when wax builds up in yellow layers or chair traffic wears the stone chips unevenly. We strip the old coating first, because polishing over wax traps dirt and never gets as clear as polishing the terrazzo itself. Then we grind to expose the chips evenly and polish to the shine you want.
Quick diagnosis
Scratch the surface with a fingernail in a quiet corner. If you hit soft wax or coating before the hard floor, it needs stripping before it can be polished.

Restore vs replace
Replacing terrazzo means jackhammering it out and rebuilding the base. Grinding and polishing the corridors keeps the original poured floor.
Repair path
We remove wax, coatings, and ground-in dirt.
Filling them first stops honing from pulling out loose pieces.
Diamond pads, from coarse to fine (often 200 to 800 grit), remove scratches and leave an even satin base.
Finer pads (1,500 to 3,000+ grit) give a soft sheen, a semi-gloss, or a mirror shine.
A sealer for stone that absorbs liquid, and regular maintenance visits for commercial floors.
