Did you know that terrazzo is extremely energy efficient?

Terrazzo was used widely in the 1940′s and 50′s as a design element in the then newly emerging Mid-Century Modern style. It was also used because it helped keep hot Florida homes cool. Terrazzo helps keep the interiors of homes cool when it is hot outdoors, and warm when it is cold outdoors. Terrazzo emits no VOC’s, does not harbor dust mites or mold spores. It is an ideal flooring material.

If you have terrazzo floors,refinish them, don’t cover them. This will add substantial value to your home. If you have terrazzo floors that are covered by carpet or tile, have the covering removed and the floors refinished. This will add value to your home and reduce energy costs and use.

I was at a local restaurant yesterday and the service was horrible.The young man who waited on me had such a negative attitude- it ruined my whole experience. I rarely do this, but I was so frustrated, I spoke to the manager about it. It turns out that she has been having problems with this young man, and she thanked me because it gave her an opportunity to speak more directly about it with him.

I know it’s a small thing compared with all that’s going on in the world these days, but I think that when people pay for a service, it’s important that they get good service. This all made me think about Colonial Floor Care.

I have seen so many people hire contractors to do various jobs in their homes, only to be met with various frustrations- they don’t come when they say they will, they don’t finish the job when they say they will, often leaving the home a mess for weeks, they don’t complete the job to the customer’s satisfaction, they add additional costs for “unforeseen” problems that they should have seen when they did the initial estimate, they are rude or obnoxious while on the job etc.

When we say cleaning, we are including the idea of restoration, because to really clean an older terrazzo floor, you need to grind and polish it, especially if there is ghosting- stains left behind after tiles have been removed. Cleaning a terrazzo floor often requires repair and polishing.

In Miami, the average terrazzo floor is probably 40-50 years old. These floors require a special touch to be cleaned properly- especially in high detail areas such as corners and near the edges of walls.

Let the expert terrazzo cleaning technicians at Colonial Floor Care reinvigorate your floors and home. Call us today for a free estimate!

We also specialize in marble, granite and concrete polishing, reepair, reatoration and cleaning. Check out our concrete acid staining and polishing services!

Colonial Floor Care is South Florida’s terrazzo, marble, granite and concrete expert. When considering a restoration of your stone floors or countertops, consider the extraordinary value they have. Because of this, you must consider that a proper restoration is the only way to protect your investment. Looking for a discount restoration job is highly discouraged. If your floors are not restored properly, for example using crystallizers, (the quick and cheap way to achieve a quick shine while destroying your floors!), not only will they lose value because of the damage poor workmanship will cause, but the floors will have to be redone within a year or two when the superficial shine wears out.

Get it done right the first time, call Colonial Floor Care at 305-731-2242.

We serve Miami, ft Lauderdale and Palm Beach (Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties)
