How to do the Terrazzo Flooring in your property

In this video we share with you our process for the terrazzo flooring we did at our project in Korle Gonno. The process is quite simple and we also let you understand why we chose terrazzo over regular tiles.

[@Transit_my-way]

I was always curious on how these type of floors were created. Love it because it's solid and will last the test of time.

[@paulrossi3851]

Hi, great video, what is the thickness of the terrazzo?

[@nickinportland]

Thanks for sharing, I’ve been obsessed with T floors since seeing them in my 60s built highschool. So cool. Doesn’t seem too terribly expensive. Life goals.

[@johanvandercingel]

Heavy work! And a very beautiful result. I wish I could have this in my home. Thank you for this very infomative and interesting video.

[@jd2799]

Absolutely beautiful floor! I love Terrazzo!!

[@virginiacristovao6626]

I’m going to have this floor I’m my home.
Thank you for sharing and well done for displaying such high skills in doing this to perfection ❤

[@m1leswilliams]

I used to lay Torrazo, and we always grind wet, maybe to prevent dust in people's houses. Great video!

What is the material of the strips? It seems quite hard to be rubber. Thanks! Great video!

[@hscamzhscam177]

The finish is gorgeous!

[@SpadeFungi]

Those floors are gorgeous.

[@Jacobwestgh]

Thanks

[@Lafemmefutile]

This is beautiful- and I suppose you can select the colors of the pieces in there to have the style you want. Great work

[@paulagrant4900]

Thank you! Very good and easy to understand.

[@jeffmaxwell7041]

Very informative video on this process! I’m building a 55’ X 60” shop and this finish is exactly what I want. Where do you source the diamond grinding pads and what grits do you use?

[@najibullahnajib3340]

This is really nice. A quick question. How long does one have to wait for grinding after casting?

[@hellostorm7661]

Thank you. That flooring should work well in my basement.

[@giftyimison333]

You guys are good with your work, when I come home will definitely contact your office to see how its will cost me to build my dream house or apartment, hope I can afford your company 😀

[@Jacobwestgh]

We'll be expecting you

[@freshieabouttown1966]

Gifty that is my thought, no family member just give the whole build to them to sort out... a littke scared about possible cost as their finish is always perfect

Outside of durability. Is this method more cost effective. Personally I prefer it to tiles

[@olivercyril7878]

Great job 👍

[@ayiddalal]

Beautiful work and amazing explanation. The aggregate used in terrazo floor are they granite or marble? Which is better? Thank you

[@jamescoleakaericunderwood2503]

Terrazzo mostly marble chips and you can use glass chips and mother of pearl for accents...

[@jamescoleakaericunderwood2503]

Marble is better... grinds more evenly... granite is too hard

[@nsanzerugezejuvent9286]

Does it need to mix with sand or stone powder?

[@willong1000]

I didn't hear you say anything about applying a sealer to the surface after finishing the grinding process. Isn't that a normal practice and important step to help prevent staining and make the floor easier to clean?

[@mamatibrian7803]

Educative as it's informative. Thanks.

[@deloresdaniel9084]

Great job! what could I used to strip my terrazzo floor from wax? thanks so much

[@antonyochieng8579]

very aesthetic appearence.Comparing with ceramic tiles,which one is expensive

[@cansinoral5593]

Please When you say you chose a light shade of yellow instead of grey for the 2nd floor, are you talking about Cement color?

[@ssalisolomonwise7312]

Specifically I request you do a video on each stage upto grinding

[@ellabonar8918]

From what size do you need to put the rubber segregation? i'm making a 8 meter x 65 cm bar and wondering if that necessary

[@SolarEnergy4514]

Wish you were in Texas!

[@WhoopDePoopDeScoop]

Water molecules don't expand... They move more and get further from eachother (they become ever so slightly more gas-like if that makes sense)

[@MJM52]

Exactly, they need more space.

[@davidsejour4718]

I have a hotel in Ivory Coast I need to do a terrazzo, how can I contact you please ?

[@robertaggrey8266]

Is terrazzo far cheaper than tiles?

[@mikikwab5897]

Tarrazo vrs tiles which one is more expensive

[@Jacobwestgh]

It is relative. In some instances, tiles may be more expensive and in others terrazzo. Also the cost of the tiles you choose will also affect the cost. We will be doing a video on this in the coming days with a more comprehensive breakdown of the two.

[@PhiniaceNchimunya-bu1kl]

What if you're using a graida

[@ndjanor1981]

So when it comes to cost, which is less expensive?.. tile work or terrazzo ?

[@Jacobwestgh]

The cost is relative. In some cases, tiles will be more expensive and in others terrazzo. We will be doing a video on this in the coming days comparing the two. Stay tuned.

[@syriasebyala9742]

Are you also in Uganda?

[@Vefyoutubecensorfutub]

I’m confused. I though moisture was the number one enemy for terrazzo flooring. Also those measuring lines in my opinion are unsightly. One uneven surface / finish would have been great. Apart from that great job and presentation. Thanks

[@TimKollat]

nice work. But doesnt all that water flooded before pouring the terrazzo make the mix weak?

[@alexmontego3115]

i does this job,the mix gets dry quickly if you dont pour enough water.that means it will be difficult for you to level up when rolling since the cast will be dried up or can cost you alot of time

[@Lafemmefutile]

Cement actually dries harder when it’s very wet. The water cures the mix.

[@TimKollat]

@Thoughts 99 the more water you add to cement the weaker it becomes

[@jamescoleakaericunderwood2503]

@@TimKollat the water is needed for the cement to make a proper bond...it also aids in the curing process ...water pulls it together as it evaporates..

[@jamescoleakaericunderwood2503]

@@alexmontego3115 Hi Alex.. after flooding the floor we always make a slurry with cement then pour the Terrazzo...
This reduces color loss.. too much water will weaken the pigment when using just water...food for thought...

[@mikecharles2551]

Wow

[@Sist222]

Wow. Please tarazo and tiles, which one cost more

[@Jacobwestgh]

The cost is usually dependent on a number of factors. In some cases, tiles will cost more and in others, terrazzo. We will be making a video comparing the two and which one would be good for you in some time to come. Stay tuned

[@sirlouisrickie2482]

How much do u terrazo flooring

[@villageboydee]

My terrazzo was done and it was not a good job. My question is can it be completely redone?

[@Jacobwestgh]

Yes, the work can be redone. The only issue would be to break the floor to remove the old terrazzo work and then redo it. The terrazzo is quite hard so cutting it is a job in itself.
