Terrazzo steps crack & chip repair

Description:

This London-area project records crack and chip repairs on terrazzo steps. The gallery includes views labelled repairs, grinding and sealing, illustrating how local defects sit within the wider stair surface. A missing piece at an edge and a crack through a tread are different problems; the cause and stability of the damaged stone need checking before repair.

Fillers can be selected to blend with terrazzo’s aggregate and binder, but a repair may remain visible where the original pattern varies. Surface refinement can then help the repaired area sit more consistently with adjacent steps. The original notes do not specify the number of defects, sealer formulation or any slip-resistance test. These photographs are examples from this job, not evidence of an invisible match or certified safety level. A comparable staircase should be assessed for movement, tread edges and wear.
