Terrazzo Floor Polishing in Delhi
Terrazzo and mosaic floors go dull in patches because the cement matrix wears faster than the chips. Grinding back to the aggregate and polishing it evenly is the only way to bring back the pattern and the shine together. Delhi floors take a beating from dust, metro-era construction grit and hard water. Makrana, Katni and Kota dominate older colonies, while newer builder floors use imported marble.

Terrazzo Polishing - common questions
Why does terrazzo look patchy after cleaning?
Because the cement matrix wears down faster than the chips, so light reflects differently across the floor. Grinding back to a level surface and polishing it evenly is the fix.
Can cracked terrazzo be repaired?
Yes. Cracks are filled with a matched cement or epoxy mix, levelled, then ground and polished so they stop showing as dark lines.
How often does terrazzo need grinding?
Usually every 5-10 years for homes. Lighter polishing passes every 18-24 months keep it looking sharp in between.
Is terrazzo more expensive to polish than marble?
It is comparable, but it usually needs grinding on the first visit, which marble floors sometimes do not.
