Terrazzo flooring in Concord CA - a seamless floor built on a flat, dry slab

Tired of cracked grout and worn tile? We build epoxy terrazzo on a slab we've leveled and checked, so the new floor goes down seamless.

Is terrazzo flooring right for a Concord home?

Terrazzo flooring in Concord is a floor made of marble, granite, onyx or glass chips set in cement or resin. It's poured, ground and polished into one smooth, grout-free surface that holds up for a very long time.

Most people who ask me about terrazzo are remodeling, so there's already a floor down and the real question is whether terrazzo can go on top of it. For a remodel, epoxy terrazzo is usually where we start, and it needs a flat, dry slab under it. The price moves mostly with the size of the room, the chips you pick and how much work the slab needs before anything goes on it. The schedule turns on that same prep and on whether your project needs a permit. I'll give you a written estimate with the reasons behind it, so you can see what your floor needs and why.

How we install terrazzo flooring

It starts with me at your house, looking at what's on the floor now and how it's holding up. Epoxy terrazzo needs a flat concrete base and dry conditions to go down right, so we check the slab for moisture and for high and low spots, and leveling is part of the plan from the first visit, not a surprise halfway through. The terrazzo trade group treats moisture barrier membranes as standard for epoxy terrazzo, so your estimate says whether we're putting one down and why. Once the base is flat and dry, we pour the terrazzo with the chips you picked, then grind and polish it until it's one smooth surface with no grout lines.

A lot of the real work happens before the pour. If the slab is uneven or has old coatings or glue on it, that's concrete grinding and surface preparation, and on most terrazzo jobs it's the step that decides how the floor turns out. If it's a basement you're thinking about, moisture is the first thing I'll test, and our basement flooring options are worth a look if the slab turns out too damp for terrazzo.

Epoxy terrazzo for a remodel

This is the one I usually bring up for an existing house, because it's thin and light enough to go over the floor you already have in most cases. It also installs more quickly than cement terrazzo, as long as the base underneath is flat.

Cement terrazzo for new construction

Cement terrazzo is thicker and heavier, so it generally suits new construction, where the floor can be planned around it from the start. If you're building new and like the look, bring it up early, before the slab and the rest of the floor are set.

Why Concord homeowners call Concord Precision Epoxy Flooring for terrazzo

The owner sees every floor first

I come out to look at every job myself and write the estimate, and I'm on site with our crew when the work gets done. The person who checked your slab and explained the plan is the same one watching the grinding and the pour.

Slab work first, since 2023

I started this business in Concord in 2023 after summers on flooring and concrete crews. Most failed floors I've looked at went wrong because of what was under them, not the coating, so we find out what your slab is doing before we pick a system.

Your satisfaction, guaranteed. Part of that is making sure you understand why we picked the system we did, what prep your slab needs and what the estimate covers, so you know what you're getting before the first grinder comes off the truck.

Planning terrazzo flooring in Concord

The Concord Permit Center handles permits for the city, and whether a terrazzo floor needs one depends on the project, so I don't assume either way. Before we schedule, we check with the city or county office that covers your address, and if the work needs a permit, we take care of the application and plan the job around it.

Around Concord we mostly see houses with tile, carpet or wood that people are ready to replace, sitting on older slabs that aren't as flat as terrazzo needs, which is why leveling comes up on so many of these jobs. We do the same work in the cities nearby, including Walnut Creek and Pleasant Hill, out to Antioch and over to Vallejo, and if your city isn't listed, just ask.

Questions about terrazzo floors in Concord

How much does terrazzo flooring cost in Concord?

I can't give a fair number without seeing the floor, because the cost depends on the room's size, the chips you choose and how much work the slab needs first. Glass and other decorative chips raise the cost of epoxy terrazzo, and leveling the slab or adding a moisture barrier adds to it too. I'll walk the floor and give you a free written estimate that shows where the money goes.

Can terrazzo go over my existing floor?

Usually, yes, if you go with epoxy terrazzo, which can be installed over tile, stone, brick pavers or wood. It can also go over plywood that's properly installed and prepared, so if you have a wood subfloor, ask me whether yours qualifies. Whatever's down now has to be flat and solid, and that's the first thing I check when I come out.

How long does a terrazzo floor last?

A federal study puts the useful life of a properly installed terrazzo floor at about 75 years with general maintenance. The national terrazzo trade group says it needs less upkeep than any other flooring and can be repaired and refinished for the life of the building. That long life depends on the install, which is why we spend so much time on the slab.

Can an old terrazzo floor be repaired instead of replaced?

Often, yes. Older terrazzo can be reground, and cracks, spots that have come loose from the slab and damaged areas can be patched before the floor is refinished. If your floor is worth saving, I'll tell you, because restoring it can make more sense than starting over.

How do I find out which permits my terrazzo project needs in Concord?

Start with the city's online Project Pal tool, which shows which permits a project requires and estimates the fees. You can also call the Permit Center at 925-671-3107, Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to noon and 1 to 4 p.m., and the city's Permit Portal lets you apply or check on an application and inspections anytime.
