The National Terrazzo & Mosaic Association (NTMA) conducted an extensive study, compiling statistics from its own membership, the Institutional Research Associates, US Government Agencies, Sanitary Supply Organization and other agencies, to determine the national average for installation, maintenance and replacement costs of various typical finishes used in hospitals, schools and other institutional facilities.
This survey has been updated by Terrazzo & Marble Supply (T&M) based upon our own market experiences and customer input (1/10).
