How To Clean Terrazzo Floor At Home

Over time, even the best kept floors must be properly cleaned. Terrazzo floors are easy to clean with a few simple steps:

1. Sweep the floor to remove loose dirt, crumbs, and other debris. A dry mop can also be useful if the floor is dusty.

2. Using plain water or a neutral (neither acidic or alkaline) cleaner, wet mop the floor and let the cleaner sit on the floor for several minutes to dissolve dirt. It is important that the entire floor surface remains wet during this time, otherwise, the loose dirt will simply dry back onto the floor.

3. Rinse the floor thoroughly with clean water, or use a wet vacuum or squeegee to remove the dirty water. More than one rinse may be necessary to remove all dirt.

4. When dry, buff the floor to restore shine.
