Missouri's climate, with its humid summers and cold winters, requires a carefully managed approach to terrazzo installation. We meticulously prepare subfloors in homes throughout Missouri, ensuring they are clean, dry, and stable to handle seasonal temperature and humidity shifts, especially important for projects in Columbia. Our process involves precise mixing of the terrazzo aggregate with either an epoxy or cementitious binder, followed by careful pouring and curing. We manage the drying and hardening stages to prevent stress fractures that can arise from expansion and contraction. The final grinding and polishing stages reveal the unique character of your selected materials, creating a lasting and visually appealing floor.
