We are Colonial Floor Care!

We are South Florida’s flooring specialists. Whether your floor is marble, terrazzo, travertine, concrete or granite, we are the floor care company for all floor types. We specialize in cleaning, polishing, restoration and repair.

Many local companies offer prices that are slightly lower than ours- here’s why. First, the contractors they hire do not have much training- they typically learn on the job. Second, most local companies use old or inexpensive equipment. More often than not, people who think they are saving a little bit of money hire one of these inferior companies, only to discover that their workmanship is shoddy. They then call us to repair the faulty work. In the end, they spend much more than they would if they had called us the first time.

When it comes to your home, you want the very best to enhance your investment and the quality of life of your home. Call Colonial Floor Care today!

We live in an exciting time for home renovation and green home materials. Although concrete has been used for over 2000 years as a building material, interior and exterior, decorative concrete for individual homes is a relatively new concept.

Concrete is getting a lot of attention lately because it is environmentally friendly and cost effective. It is extremely durable and long lasting. Until recently, the only problem with concrete has been that unless your design concept was an ultra modern, minimalist or inductrial style, there wasn’t much one could do with concrete design wise.

All that has changed. With acid staining and polishing, there are almost limitless possibilities for color, texture and design using concrete. These techniques have revolutionized how concrete is being used for floors, countertops, stairs, garage floors, patios -- even walls!

Not only can acid staining provide many color choices, simple techniques can create the effect of tile, marbling, patterning, shiny and matte finishes.

All of these options are available at very low cost. Your home can be dramatically transformed within a very reasonable budget.

Two of our recent projects are:

1) A mansion in Naples 2) A South Beach Mansion near the Holocaust Memorial

1) Mansion in Naples-

The owners of this outstanding home installed all new terrazzo floors. Sadly, the contractors did a very poor job. Colonial Floor Care was able to save them thousands by custom altering the floor rather than replacing it entirely. We added color matched material, piece by piece- truly a labor of love! In the end, we created the floors that the owners had originally hoped for!

2) A South Beach Mansion near the Holocaust Museum

In this job, we again repaired the shoddy work of another company. When will people learn to call us first to save money?! The previous company was unable to do the edging and polishing around the complex design features of this home. For Colonial Floor Care, it was a lot of hard work, but no problem!

Today I was remembering my growing up in the North, particularly during the holiday season. At this time of year the cold begins to come, and one can’t help but begin preparing for the holiday season. Festive thoughts of beautiful decorations come to mind. Dreams of one’s home looking idyllic, such as this one, warm the soul.

And then the snow begins to fly and reality sets in. Whipping winds, decorations that fly away, broken lights and freezing fingers. More than one yelling match has occurred in my family’s quest to create the peferct outdoor christmas wonderland. In the end, our dream turned into something more like this.

Well, reality somehow has a way of interfering sometimes.

Living now in South Florida, I take great joy in the fact that the cold never really comes! What I do notice, however is that the rains come, and along with the rain, mold. I have seen a lot of people trying to update their homes by installing carpet and tile over their terrazzo or concrete floors. The end result is kind of like the Christmas lights of my past- in a short time, the carpets become moldy and filled with sand, no matter how often people try to clean them. That unmistakable mold smell hits you as you enter the door of a home with carpet. Housecleaning becomes an endless nightmare.

Many people think that because their terrazzo or concrete are yellowed and stained, that the only solution is to cover or replace them. This is not true. Terrazzo floors can be easily and inexpensively restored using non-toxic methods. Concrete can be acid stained or polished- color and/or shine cane be added along with a strong seal- all in an environmentally safe way.

Call Colonial Floor Care today. Let us restore, clean, polish or repair your terrazzo or concrete floors. Once restored, these floors are so durable, beautiful and easy to maintain, you will definitely lessen the stress of your day to day life. Perhaps best of all, no more mold!

We have written many times about he environmental and health benefits of natural stone and concrete flooring.

When I thought further about my last article on finding serenity the natural way, it occurred to me that bringing natural materials into your home or maintaining the existing natural materials such as marble, granite, terrazzo or concrete, is an important part of healing your home.

Many of our homes have been sick for a long while because of the use of chemically produced materials such as acrylic or polyester carpet fibers etc. Even many of the cleaning products we have been using are highly toxic- both to produce and to use. All of these materias produce high levels of toxic VOC’s (volatile organic compounds)

To help heal our homes, we need to think differently about what we put in them and what we use to maintain them. Natural stones such as marble and granite, along with terrazzo and concrete, are excellent heathy home materials. these materials require no toxic chemicals to produce or install, and they can be easily cleaned and maintained using non-toxic neutralizers or warm water and soap.

Colonial Floor Care has even developed a way to restore the surfaces of these materials without using any toxic chemicals- we use a three stage grinding process that is not only better for your floor than crystallizers, but also is completely environmentally safe.

Whether it is marble, granite, concrete or terrazzo, Colonial Floor Care can restore these surfaces, making your home beautiful, safe and healthy. If you have existing tile or carpet over terrazzo or concrete floors, Colonial Floor Care can remove these materials and remove any stains or repair any holes or cracks.

Natural stone, terrazzo and concrete floors do not emit VOC’s (volatile organic compounds) nor do they harbor dust mites or mold spores. Because of these factors, having these floors makes the air in your home substantially cleaner and healthier.

Natural stone, terrazzo and concrete can even add to your mental health. According to a recent study from the University of Rochester, communing with natutre in the outdoors, as well as creating a sense of natural settings in our living spaces, lifts our spirits and can even help us to behave better. Four studies were completed, and in each, the finding was that the more people engaged in natural settings, the more they valued community and closeness with others. The more they focused on purely man made settings, the more they valued fame and wealth. Furthermore, the researchers suggest, surrounding ones’ self with natural elements may help people relax an de-stress from the pressures of society and become more introspective.

Hello! I am writing to tell you about an exciting menu of services that Colonial Floor Care is currently offerring.

Many interior designers and home renovation companies are responding to the challenges of the current economy by tailoring their services to fit every budgret. For example, some design companies are offering to rearrange existing decor to maimize their imapct on the overall design of the hoem, rather that providing a complete redecoration. The cost is of course, sugstatially less costly.

At Colonial Floor Care, we are offerring similar services. For example, if you are not currently able or willing to have a complete floor restoration on your terrazzo, concrete, marble, granite or slate floor, but you would like to upgrade its appearance, let’s say, for the holidays, then Colonial Floor Care can provide a simple grind/polish at a lesser cost.
