Our restoration technique leaves your floor beautifully polished so that you will not need to apply waxes, sealers, strippers or expensive cleaners anymore. Your janitorial staff will be able to maintain the polished natural stone or terrazzo floors in a fraction of the amount of time it takes them now. Sealing & buffing, stripping & waxing can now be eliminated saving you a significant amount of money each year in floor maintenance costs. In a recent life cycle cost analysis report done by an independent marketing firm, the total annual maintenance cost of a coated (waxed & stripped) heavy use terrazzo floor was almost $2.00 more per square foot when compared to the same floor polished.
Our services give you a better option when you are considering covering or replacing your natural stone or terrazzo floors.
You may think your terrazzo cannot be fixed, but before you decide to tear out and replace your old terrazzo or cover it with high maintenance carpet or tile, let Boylan Marble & Terrazzo Restoration Ltd. give you a free restoration quote. We can rejuvenate cracked, pitted, and worn down marble, granite and terrazzo. Terrazzo floors can be beautifully restored to their original luster at a fraction of the cost to replace (new terrazzo is $12-$15 per square foot). There are also health benefits to keeping your terrazzo vs. replacing it with vinyl composite tile or carpet. The Asthma Regional Council of New England has listed terrazzo as one of the best floor choices for schools. The council has found that terrazzo is better for health, has lower maintenance, has higher durability, and has less environmental impact when compared to other common flooring choices like VCT or carpet.

Our services allow you to eliminate dangerous floor strippers, waxes and cleaners that pose hazardous chemical risks to janitors and building occupants, emit volatile organic compounds (VOC’s) to
your indoor air, and accumulate in the environment. The following link explains these dangers.

Our process leaves hehind a beautiful polished terrazzo or natural stone floor and nothing else. Natural stone and terrazzo is comprised of zero VOC materials. The cleanable polished finished we leave behind also allows the stone to breath which help prevent mold growth. Reducing VOC emitting chemicals and mold growth can improve indoor air quality and may even help to improve some health related problems such as asthma.

According to the National Terrazzo & Mosaic Assn. an analysis performed by Michael A Kawecki, LEED AP, USGBC North Texas Chapter, found that on typical projects, terrazzo can realistically contribute to five LEED credits and in some extreme cases achieve 8 points. NTMA Green Flyer.
