Terrazzo Floor Design Service
Terrazzo flooring is a type of flooring that can be customized to fit any design. We offer a Terrazzo Floor Design with the use of marble, glass, or other decorative materials, terrazzo can be created in a variety of colors, patterns, and textures. In this article, we will discuss the process of creating custom terrazzo designs on-site.
To start the custom design process, the installer will meet with the client to discuss their vision for the terrazzo flooring. This includes choosing the colors and patterns that will be used, as well as determining the size and shape of the terrazzo pieces.
Once the design has been agreed upon, the installer will start by preparing the concrete subfloor. This involves pouring the concrete and allowing it to cure for several days. Once the concrete is cured, the installer will use a grinding machine to create a smooth and level surface.
Next, the installer will mix together the terrazzo mixture. This is done by mixing together a combination of marble or glass chips, cement, and water. The mixture is then poured onto the subfloor and spread out evenly using a trowel.
The custom design is then created on-site by hand. This involves using a variety of tools to place the decorative materials into the terrazzo mixture in the desired pattern. The installer may use templates, stencils, or freehand techniques to create the design.
As the design is being created, the installer will work in small sections to ensure that the mixture does not dry out before the decorative materials are fully embedded. Once the design is complete, the installer will wait for the terrazzo to dry and harden.
After the terrazzo has dried and hardened, the installer will begin the grinding process. This involves using a floor grinder with diamond blades to smooth out the surface of the terrazzo and remove any excess cement or decorative materials that may be protruding. This process is repeated several times until the surface of the terrazzo is completely smooth and level.
Once the grinding process is complete, the installer will use a series of progressively finer grits of diamond polishing pads to bring out the shine in the terrazzo. This polishing process creates a smooth and shiny surface that is resistant to wear and tear.
Finally, the installer will seal the terrazzo to protect it from stains and damage. This can be done with a clear epoxy resin or a topical sealer. This sealer helps to protect the surface from spills and stains, and also helps to maintain the shine of the terrazzo over time.
In conclusion, custom terrazzo designs can be created on-site to fit any design vision. The process involves meeting with the client to discuss the design, preparing the concrete subfloor, mixing and pouring the terrazzo mixture, creating the design by hand, grinding and polishing the surface, and then sealing the terrazzo to protect it from damage. The result is a unique and beautiful flooring surface that can last for many years with proper care and maintenance.
