Terrazzo Floor Restoration
Grinding, patching and re-polishing original terrazzo — common in older South Florida buildings and almost always worth saving.

Service area · Fort Lauderdale, FL
Epoxy, terrazzo restoration and polished concrete across Fort Lauderdale and east Broward. Free on-site measurement, no deposit.
Most floors we install run $5 to $12 per square foot installed, depending on the system. Fort Lauderdale has an older housing stock than the western suburbs, and that changes the job in two ways. First, a lot of these homes already have terrazzo under the carpet or tile — original mid-century terrazzo that is worth restoring rather than covering, and grinding it back is usually cheaper than putting a new floor over it. Second, the closer you get to the Intracoastal, the more moisture the slab holds. We test before we choose, because a sealed system over a wet coastal slab is the single most common reason a floor fails here.
Restoration first where there is terrazzo or sound concrete underneath, coatings where there is not. The oldest houses in Broward are here, and the floor under the tile is often better than the tile.

Vinyl flakes broadcast into the wet resin, then sealed. Hides dust and tire marks better than any solid color — the usual pick for garages. A heavier broadcast gives a full, granite-like texture with more grip, which is what holds up around pools and service areas.

Mechanically refining the slab you already have through progressive diamond grits. No coating on top — the finish is the concrete itself.

Diamond honing and polishing that brings dull, scratched marble back without replacing a single tile.

The base system: a poured resin layer that seals the slab and gives you a seamless, easy-to-clean surface with no grout lines to scrub.

A penetrating or film-forming sealer against oil, salt and water. The cheapest thing you can do to make a slab last longer.
$6 – $10
per square foot installed, most flake floors
A standard two-car garage starts around $2,500. Solid colour runs $5 to $8 and metallic $8 to $15 per square foot. These are market estimates, not fixed rates: slab condition, preparation, moisture, repairs, the system and access decide the final number — and we would rather you know the range before you call than after.

Almost always yes. Original terrazzo is a genuinely valuable floor and restoring it — grinding, filling and polishing — usually costs less than installing anything new on top. Send photos of the worst section and we will tell you honestly whether it can come back.
It changes the moisture reading, which changes the system. Slabs near the Intracoastal hold more vapour, and a fully sealed coating over one of those will lift. We test first and choose accordingly — it is not more expensive, it is just the right system.
Yes. Most associations want the scope, the schedule and proof of insurance before anything starts. Tell us who the contact is and we will deal with them directly rather than making you relay it.
A standard garage is ground, coated and finished in a single day. Interior floors and terrazzo restoration take longer because the polishing is progressive — the exact number of days is in the quote after we have seen the slab.
