This article will deal with the restoration of a 1970 terrazzo floor. Many terrazzo floors from 1968, 1969, 1970 and 1971 look very similar to this floor. Many years ago we struggled with these floors. This era of terrazzo floors was not always of the same quality as previous years. Most terrazzo restoration systems have a hard time getting good results from these floors. It is hard to get a highly polished shine and these floors tend to be thinner then their predecessors. This can cause an uneven look and lines of marble loss in the floors.

Today our terrazzo floor restoration system makes these floors more flat, and brings these floors to a highly polished shine. When a floor has a high shine it can hide many flaws. Our planetary floor grinding and polishing system gives our floors a brilliant shine and helps make the floor more flat. In fact, our system produces the flattest floors in the home terrazzo restoration business. Our process uses wet and dry diamond polishing to give your terrazzo floors a shine that will last years and years. Check out the beautiful floor. These pictures tell thousands of words. By Joe Martin

SafeDry just completed a couple of jobs in Naples and I wanted to share the great pictures and a video from those jobs. The first job we will show was a 1959 floor we did in three days. The floor had some problems due to rug backing that stained the terrazzo floor. We did not completely remove the stains, but with our 400 pound HTC grinder we made the floor look great. We removed around ninety percent of the staining. We also had a lot of buildup caused by an old topical finish. These coatings darkened the terrazzo floor a lot. All that darkening was completely removed. You will see the spotting from that coating in one of the pictures.

The coatings also caused a lot of yellowing or browning to the terrazzo floor. When SafeDry does terrazzo restoration we do not coat the floor. That is why our floors stay looking great for many many years. One of my customers wanted to know why one SafeDry page they found said we do seven or eight steps and another said eleven to fourteen steps. The reason is simple. For one we now do thirteen to sixteen steps, but SafeDry is always testing new steps and processes. We recently added two more steps because our testing showed they made a bid difference in the finished product.
At SafeDry we know that the people in Naples and Fort Myers love quality terrazzo. The cost of restoring terrazzo is very affordable. Under normal conditions you can expect terrazzo restoration to last seven to ten years. We also just added a new terrazzo sealer that can last just as long and repels water and oil based stains. This product can repel water on the surface of your terrazzo for many hours.

Terrazzo restoration is seeing a great resurgences in the past few years and as a result there are a lot of new diamond polishing products. Some are little known and come with inherent problems. At SafeDry We did not give up after encountering these problems. We instead tried to figure out how to overcome these problems. When you watch our videos, or look at our terrazzo restoration pictures you will see our HTC grinder and little else. The reason for that is that we do not want to show people how to duplicate what we do. Few will ever buy an HTC grinder so that is part of how we make terrazzo floors look great, but we use diamonds in many other ways to get the best terrazzo shine possible. Enough with all that. Here are the pictures and video I promised. Like I said the first terrazzo floor looks great.
