For a floor plan that is incomparable, and attractive to look at, it's difficult to look beyond decorative concrete coatings. These kinds of flooring provide the feel of natural stones but happen to be far more economical and practical. It does not matter the kind of plans you have or what you intend to create, there is customized Terrazzo Floor Design Miami FL out there that will fit your requirements.

If there is existing flooring where the terrazzo floor is going to be created, it is prepared to receive the layered concrete that will form the basis for the flooring. The existing flooring may also be removed. The flooring company will smooth the wet cement into place, and then they will embed the surface with colorful marble and stone chips.

Adding up the costs- Once you have decided that you would like to use strips in your home or business, it is important to consider all of the costs. Depending on the staining, design, and area size you wish to cover, your costs will vary.

Initial cost - Many think that polished concrete strips has a high initial cost and in some ways this is true. However, they have not taken into consideration how long the strips will last. In most cases, strips flooring can hold up for generations with minimal upkeep costs. For a professionally poured floor expect to pay anywhere from $20 to $50 a square foot.
