Terrazzo Floor Restoration in Kissimmee
Enhance the natural beauty of your Kissimmee property with our specialized, wax-free restoration services. We mechanically refine Terrazzo, Saltillo, and natural stone to reveal a durable, glass-like shine that withstands daily life.
Your terrazzo floors are one of the most elegant features in your Kissimmee home or business. Durable, timeless, and uniquely beautiful, terrazzo deserves expert care to preserve its original luster. At Coast to Coast Terrazzo Restoration, we specialize in bringing worn, scratched, or dull terrazzo back to life using a true wet grind and wet polish process—never wax.
Whether your property is a classic mid-century home, a luxury residence, or a commercial space in Kissimmee, our team delivers high-end terrazzo restoration that enhances both appearance and value.
Our Wet Grind & Wet Polish Terrazzo Process
We use a 100% mechanical, natural restoration system. Instead of coating your floor in wax or topical products, we refine the actual terrazzo surface. This creates a long-lasting, low-maintenance shine that won't yellow, peel, or trap dirt.
Step 1: Precision Grinding — Correcting Wear and Imperfections
Over time, terrazzo can develop scratches, traffic patterns, etching, and uneven areas. To correct these issues, we start with a controlled grinding phase using Metal Dot Diamond Infused Pads:
- 30 grit — Opens the surface, removes heavy wear, lippage, and deep scratches.
- 60 grit — Refines the floor, further levels and smooths out previous grind marks.
- 120 grit — Leaves a uniform, matte surface ready for polishing.
This wet grinding process is performed with water to control dust and protect both the terrazzo and your indoor air quality. In many Kissimmee homes, this step alone can dramatically improve older terrazzo that hasn't been professionally restored in decades.
Step 2: Progressive Diamond Polishing for a Natural Shine
Once the terrazzo is properly ground and leveled, we slowly build back the shine using Diamond Infused Resin Pads. These resins refine the surface to a natural, glass-like finish—without a single layer of wax.
- 50 & 100 grit resins — Begin to close the surface and remove metal pad marks.
- 200 & 400 grit resins — Produce a smooth, satin to semi-gloss finish.
- 800 & 1500 grit resins — Develop rich clarity and reflection.
- 3000 grit resins — Achieve a high, natural polish with deep, mirror-like shine.
The result is a refined terrazzo floor that responds beautifully to light and showcases the true color and aggregate. In Kissimmee’s bright Florida sun, this natural shine can completely transform the feel of your interior.
Terrazzo Sealing Options for Kissimmee Properties
After grinding and polishing, we protect your restored terrazzo with sealers selected for the way you use your space. We offer three professional-grade options:
- Oil-based Sealer — Deep-penetrating protection that enhances color and guards against spills from the inside out. Ideal for residential terrazzo in living areas and kitchens.
- Water-based Acrylic Sealer — Designed for daily wear protection, this sealer adds a protective layer that's easy to maintain, especially in higher-traffic Kissimmee homes and commercial areas.
- Sealer Crystallizer — For clients who want an “airport finish” with maximum shine and reflectivity. This is often preferred in lobbies, showrooms, and upscale commercial spaces.
We will evaluate your terrazzo and your traffic patterns to recommend the best combination for long-term performance.
Terrazzo Chip & Crack Repairs
In older Kissimmee homes and buildings, terrazzo is often chipped, cracked, or patched improperly. Coast to Coast Terrazzo Restoration provides professional terrazzo repairs before the final polishing:
- Filling cracks with color-matched materials.
- Repairing divots, small holes, and missing aggregate.
- Blending repairs seamlessly so they disappear into the surrounding floor.
These repairs are performed before the final honing and polishing steps so the floor looks unified and consistent.
Why We Never Use Wax on Terrazzo
Wax and topical coatings might give a quick shine, but they create major problems over time:
- Wax yellows with age, especially in Florida sunlight.
- Wax collects dirt, grime, and cleaning residues, making floors look dull and dirty.
- To maintain wax, you must repeatedly strip and recoat, which is time-consuming and costly.
Our wax-free, natural polishing approach eliminates those issues. Because your shine comes from the terrazzo itself, not from a coating, your maintenance costs are significantly reduced over the life of the floor.
Easy Maintenance for Restored Terrazzo in Kissimmee
Once your floors are restored, daily care becomes simple:
- Dust mop regularly with a microfiber or treated dust mop to remove grit and sand.
- Use a neutral pH cleaner specifically designed for stone/terrazzo when damp mopping—never harsh chemicals or acidic cleaners.
- Wipe spills promptly and use walk-off mats at entries leading in from the outdoors.
Follow these guidelines and your terrazzo floors in Kissimmee will stay radiant and easy to maintain for many years.
Mexican, Spanish & Saltillo Tile Refinishing in Kissimmee
Handcrafted Mexican, Spanish, and Saltillo tile floors have a warmth and character that's perfect for Kissimmee's relaxed, Mediterranean-inspired style. Over time, though, old sealers, grime, and wear can dull their natural beauty. Coast to Coast Terrazzo Restoration specializes in refinishing these rustic and hand-painted surfaces while preserving their unique charm.
No Harsh Chemical Strippers — Mechanical Sealer Removal Only
We don’t use any chemicals to remove old sealer. Instead, we use a controlled, mechanical removal process to safely strip away old, failing finishes. This protects the tile, your indoor environment, and your family or customers.
Our Multi-Pad Refinishing System
To restore the depth and “vibration” of Mexican and Saltillo tile, we use a progression of specialized pads:
- Black pad — For aggressive removal of heavy build-up and thick sealers.
- Green pad — For intermediate cleaning and refinement.
- Red pad — For light cleaning and preparation for finishing.
- White polishing pad — For final buffing and enhancing the surface before sealing.
Understanding Your Tile: Saltillo vs. Spanish
- Saltillo Tile: Very porous, rustic clay tiles that soak up moisture and sealer quickly. We tailor our process to manage absorption, protect the clay body, and highlight its warm, earthy tones.
- Spanish / Hand-Painted Tile: Often features intricate colors and designs. We clean and refinish these delicately to preserve the artwork while restoring gloss and clarity.
Sealing Options for Mexican & Saltillo Tile
Once the surface is clean and properly prepared, we apply professional sealers based on your goals:
- Oil-based Sealer — Penetrates deeply, enriching color and providing robust protection for porous tiles like Saltillo.
- Water-based Acrylic Sealer — Adds a protective film to help resist daily wear, scuffs, and spills, ideal for busy Kissimmee homes and commercial spaces.
The result is a floor that recaptures the original warmth, color, and handcrafted character of your Mexican or Spanish tiles.
Marble, Travertine & Limestone Floor Restoration in Kissimmee
Natural stone floors such as marble, travertine, and limestone bring a luxurious, high-end look to Kissimmee properties—but they can scratch, etch, and lose their shine over time. Our stone restoration service follows a meticulous, multi-phase process to return your stone to its original, elegant finish.
Phase 1: Grinding — Flattening and Heavy Damage Removal
We begin with Beveled Diamond Infused Disks to correct lippage, deep scratches, and heavy wear:
- 30 grit — Levels uneven tiles and removes severe damage.
- 50 grit — Refines the surface and begins smoothing grind marks.
- 100 grit — Prepares the stone for finer honing steps.
Phase 2: Honing — Refining the Surface
The honing stage brings back clarity and smoothness while removing minor etches and scratches:
- 50, 100, 200, 400, 800 grit — A carefully controlled progression that produces an even, refined surface ranging from matte to satin, depending on the finish desired.
Phase 3: Polishing — Natural High-End Shine (No Wax)
We polish marble, travertine, and limestone to a natural shine using higher grit diamonds:
- 1500 grit — Brings out a soft gloss and visual depth.
- 3000 grit — Achieves a rich, mirror-like polish.
As with terrazzo, we do not use wax. The shine comes from the stone itself, which means no yellowing, peeling, or heavy stripping in the future.
Finishing: 5X Polishing Powder & Sealer Crystallizer
To complete the restoration, we apply specialized stone finishing products:
- 5X Polishing Powder — Used to enhance clarity and achieve a crisp, durable gloss on marble and similar stones.
- Sealer Crystallizer — For clients wanting a high-reflective, “airport style” shine and added surface hardness in busy Kissimmee environments.
The result is a luxurious stone floor that reflects light beautifully and stands up to everyday use in your Kissimmee home or business.
