Terrazzo flooring is made of concrete and composite materials. When a stain gets onto the terrazzo floor, it can set into the concrete if it is not preliminarily treated right away or professionally cleaned. For example, if someone spills a liquid such as red soda, wine or other types of wet substances, there can be a lasting stain on the flooring after the liquid is wiped up. Mud, snow, and weather tracking into the area of a terrazzo floor can also stain the flooring as well if not wiped down after contact with the elements. The stains that are stubborn and hard to lift from the terrazzo flooring will eventually seep into the concrete, which is a highly porous material, and will set into the flooring. If the terrazzo is scheduled to be sealed, the stain should be lifted first, or the sealant will permanently seal in the stain forever into the flooring. If you have stains on your terrazzo floor, just give us a call. We can come to you and remove the stains, then apply a sealant to prevent future staining from occurring. The application of sealant will help to preserve the long life of your terrazzo floor for many years or even decades to come.
