Edilerica’s work involved the philological restoration and waterproofing of terraces and stairs of the famous Vittoriano Complex in Rome. It affected about two-thirds of the entire area of the complex, including the entire extent of the floor of the Bulletin terrace.

In a first step, the plates were mapped, photographed, numbered, and measured. This was followed by their uninstallation and subsequent removal. Once the underlying state of deterioration due to water infiltration was found, the screed was demolished and the resulting debris removed. A new screed was then made, over which a waterproofing layer was spread.

In the meantime, the numerous marble slabs were restored one by one on site with washing, biocide packs, and marble powder grouting. Through such solutions, an attempt was made to remedy the stains and signs of decay due to rising underlying moisture and various fractures on the surface.

Next came the delicate phase of repositioning and rounding, that is, the leveling of the floor surface through the use of stones of different grits-some harder, some softer-that softened and finally eliminated scratches and imperfections.

In addition to the work on the slabs, Edilerica also handled the cleaning of the staircases, again by washing and applying biocides, also performing joint fillers formulated for color and grain size similar to the existing material.
