Harahan's Go-To for Terrazzo

This is our home base. We've restored stone in more Harahan homes than we can count — it's where we built our reputation.

Terrazzo floors are built to last a lifetime — they just need someone who knows how to bring them back. Many Mid-Century and historic homes in the Gulf Coast have gorgeous terrazzo hidden under carpet, tile, or decades of yellowed wax. Our restoration process strips it all away, grinds out imperfections, and polishes your terrazzo to a stunning high-gloss finish. It's one of the most dramatic transformations we do.

The clay soil and humidity in Jefferson Parish mean moisture wicks up through slab foundations, which can stain and damage stone flooring from underneath. That's part of why professional-grade restoration and sealing matters here more than in drier climates.

In Harahan, we work on well-kept family homes from the '60s through '80s, many with original tile and stone that's ready for professional attention. Each type of property has its own stone care challenges, and we've seen them all.

Terrazzo FAQ

Is my terrazzo floor worth restoring?

Almost certainly. Terrazzo is one of the most durable flooring materials ever made — it routinely lasts a hundred years or more. Even floors that look hopeless under layers of glue, wax, or carpet usually clean up beautifully. We've uncovered stunning terrazzo in homes where the owner had no idea what was under their feet.

How do you remove carpet glue from terrazzo?

Mechanical grinding with diamond abrasives. Chemical strippers alone won't do it — they leave residue that prevents a proper polish. We grind the surface down past the adhesive layer, then progressively refine it through multiple polishing steps until we reach a high-gloss finish.

How long does terrazzo restoration take?

A typical room takes two to three days: one day for glue removal and grinding, one for polishing through multiple grits, and a final day for sealing and curing. Larger projects — like a whole-house floor — can take a week. The results are worth the wait.

Can you fix cracks in terrazzo?

Yes. We fill cracks with color-matched epoxy that's ground and polished flush with the surrounding floor. We match the aggregate color and chip size so the repair blends in. Most cracks in terrazzo are caused by foundation settling and are purely cosmetic — the repair is permanent.
