Designing Your Terrazzo Floor
Creating a custom terrazzo floor allows you to express your unique style while enjoying the durability and low maintenance this flooring option offers. The design phase is where your vision begins to take shape through thoughtful planning and creative choices.
Choosing Colors and Patterns
At Las Vegas Flooring Company, we help you navigate the extensive palette of terrazzo color options. The matrix (background) color sets the tone for your entire floor, while the aggregate chips add texture and visual interest. You can select from pre-designed color combinations or create your own custom blend.
We recommend bringing inspiration photos or existing design elements from your space to your consultation. This helps us match or complement your interior design scheme.
Customization and Inlays
Terrazzo floors truly shine when personalized with custom inlays and designs. We can incorporate logos, decorative patterns, or wayfinding elements directly into your floor using precision-cut divider strips.
Metal strips (brass, zinc, or aluminum) create clean divisions between different colors or sections. These strips aren't just functional—they're design elements that can form geometric patterns, curves, or custom shapes.
Many of our commercial clients choose to embed their company logos or themed designs. Educational institutions often incorporate mascots or school colors into their terrazzo floors.
Borders and Edging
Well-designed borders and edging finish your terrazzo floor with polish and purpose. Borders define spaces, create visual breaks, and add sophistication to your installation.
For areas where terrazzo meets a different flooring material, we install appropriate transition strips to create a seamless junction. The right edging protects your investment while enhancing the overall design impact of your terrazzo floor.

2. Installation Techniques
The installation begins with proper subfloor preparation. We evaluate your existing floor and address any issues that might affect the terrazzo's performance.
For poured systems, we install divider strips first. These metal strips create sections that control cracking and allow for design patterns. Next, we mix the terrazzo materials and pour them between the dividers.
After curing, we use specialized grinding machines to level the surface. Multiple grinding stages with progressively finer abrasives reveal the aggregate and create a smooth finish.
The final steps include polishing and sealing. We apply a penetrating sealer to protect your floor from stains while maintaining its natural beauty.
3. Grinding and Polishing
Once your new terrazzo floor has cured properly, we begin the crucial grinding process. This initial step removes any surface irregularities and exposes the aggregate materials embedded within the matrix. We use specialized diamond grinding tools that work their way from coarse to fine grits.
The grinding process requires expertise and patience. Our technicians carefully work across the entire surface in systematic patterns to ensure even removal of material. During this phase, we use water to cool the grinding tools and control dust.
After the initial grinding, we move to progressively finer polishing stages. Each successive polish enhances the floor's smoothness and begins to bring out the natural luster of the terrazzo. This multi-step polishing technique transforms the rough surface into a glass-like finish that showcases the unique beauty of your terrazzo design.
4. Sealing the Surface
Sealing is essential for protecting your newly polished terrazzo floor. We apply high-quality penetrating sealers that create an invisible barrier against stains and moisture without changing the appearance of your floor.
Our sealers are specifically formulated for terrazzo surfaces and provide excellent protection while maintaining breathability. This prevents moisture from becoming trapped beneath the surface, which could lead to damage over time.
The sealing process typically requires 2-3 applications, with proper drying time between coats. Each layer strengthens the protective barrier. We carefully apply the sealer evenly across the entire surface to avoid streaking or pooling.
For high-traffic commercial areas, we may recommend more robust sealing options that offer enhanced protection while maintaining the terrazzo's natural beauty.
5. Finishing Touches
The final stages of the terrazzo installation process involve applying finishing products that enhance both appearance and protection. We often use a specialized terrazzo floor finish that adds an additional protective layer while increasing shine.
Our technicians will inspect the entire floor surface for any imperfections or areas needing touch-ups. We pay special attention to edges, corners, and transitions between different flooring materials.
We'll also provide you with detailed maintenance instructions for your new terrazzo floor. This includes recommended cleaning products, maintenance schedules, and tips for preserving the floor's appearance over time.
Before we consider the job complete, we conduct a thorough cleaning of the work area. We want to ensure you can immediately enjoy your beautiful new terrazzo floors without having to worry about construction residue or cleanup.

FAQs on Terrazzo Floor Installation
Terrazzo flooring installations involve specific timeframes, costs, and maintenance considerations. Our company provides custom design options with quality guarantees that set our floors apart from alternatives.
What is the average installation time required for terrazzo flooring by Las Vegas Flooring Company?
We typically complete terrazzo flooring installations within 2-3 weeks for residential projects. Commercial installations may take 3-6 weeks depending on square footage and complexity. The curing process requires additional time after installation. We factor this into our project timelines to ensure you can use your floors safely when we finish.

What factors influence the cost of terrazzo floor finish with Las Vegas Flooring Company?
The size of your space significantly impacts the overall cost. Larger areas typically cost less per square foot than smaller installations. Design complexity affects pricing, with custom patterns or multiple colors requiring additional materials and labor. The type of aggregates chosen (marble, glass, or specialty materials) also influences the final cost. Existing floor conditions may require additional preparation work. We provide detailed cost breakdowns in our quotes so you know exactly what you're paying for.
Are there any maintenance requirements for terrazzo floors installed by Las Vegas Flooring Company?
Terrazzo floors are remarkably low-maintenance compared to other flooring options. Regular sweeping and occasional damp mopping with a neutral cleaner is typically all that's needed. We recommend sealing your terrazzo floors every 3-5 years to maintain their luster and protection. This simple process helps preserve the floor's appearance and durability. Avoid using acidic or abrasive cleaners that can damage the finish. We provide a complete care guide with every installation.
What kind of warranty does Las Vegas Flooring Company offer for terrazzo flooring installation?

Our warranty includes protection against cracking, delamination, and excessive wear under normal conditions. We also offer extended warranty options for commercial installations. All warranty details are provided in writing and explained thoroughly before project commencement.
How does the quality of Las Vegas Flooring Company's terrazzo flooring compare to traditional tile or hardwood floors?
Our terrazzo floors offer superior longevity, often lasting the lifetime of the building with minimal maintenance. Unlike tile, terrazzo has no grout lines that can collect dirt or deteriorate over time. Terrazzo provides exceptional durability against foot traffic, moisture, and temperature changes. It outperforms hardwood in these areas while providing similar aesthetic appeal. The seamless nature of terrazzo creates a cleaner, more uniform appearance than sectional flooring options. Our installations can withstand decades of use while maintaining their beauty.
