We restore
natural stone and terrazzo in commercial buildings, historical
buildings, residential buildings, government buildings, schools,
and universities.
We can repair
stone damage damage ranging from small chips and cracks to large
holes.
We can provide
consultation for all of your natural stone and terrazzo
questions.
Our services
can save you money and time with your natural stone and terrazzo
maintenance.
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 behind 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 helps to
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.

Our services
may help your building achieve several LEED Credits.
o
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.
