Services offered by El Verde Terrazzo

El Verde Terrazzo Inc. specializes on terrazzo floors. Southern California is filled with residential houses and businesses that installed terrazzo floors, walls and even ceilings during its original construction because terrazzo offers a beautiful and durable flooring system. Over the years and as architectural styles and trends changed, many of these floors were covered with carpet, tiles, hardwood floors or other flooring materials. These types of floors may last you a couple of years, and once deteriorated you must remove and reinstall a new floor. That consumes time, material and of course more money. Although these floors are less expensive, terrazzo floors are more durable and more beautiful. Terrazzo is sought by many designers, architects and contractors because of its long lasting beauty, durability and affordable maintenance. Terrazzo may be installed in floors, counter tops, walls and even ceilings. Terrazzo durability by average can last about 100 years or longer! That's why terrazzo can't be beaten. It is custom made. You think it, we install it.

What is terrazzo? Terrazzo is the Italian word that means terraces. Terrazzo is a faux-marble flooring or counter topping material. It was initially used by workers in Venice who created it by mixing marble chips of different colors, shapes and sizes with mortar, then grinding them into beautiful, versatile designs. Today, the terrazzo designs are used for interior and exterior decorations.
