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.

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.

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.

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

@Jacobwestgh 2 жыл бұрын

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.

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.

@alexmontego3115 2 жыл бұрын

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

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

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
