As for price well if i was you i would be on the phone to q flooring for a quote on the terrazzo tile's then on the phone to see how much your screed would cost each day ,then the price of the cement and colour for grouting and also the machinery for grinding and polishing and lastly make sure you have a good set of lads who know the job,wouldnt speculate a price until you had all these factor's in place.

So - take no notice of what I said cos I really don't know what is involved do I
That much is obvious
Maybe tilinglogistics can help.... seems more his area of expertise
