The hydraulic mosaic was manufactured piece by piece. The craftsman chose the colors he was going to use and prepared a paste with water, mixing white marble powder, white cement, sand and pigments.

This preparation was poured into the "climb", which consists of a mold that integrates bronze or brass separators fitted within a frame. Each space was filled with its corresponding color. The more shades the drawing had, the more time it took to create it, so the cost of the tile increased. This layer, the decorated one, which is the one that was visible when it was placed, was about 4-5mm thick.

When the "climb" had been filled with the different colored pastes, a second layer was added, of a similar thickness, formed by a mixture of gray cement and sand, with the function of absorbing excess water from the first. Finally, it was finished filling up to the 20 or 25 mm that the thickness of the brick usually had, with the support layer, made up of gray cement, common cement and sand, with a more porous texture to facilitate adhesion during placement. The filled mold was placed under a hydraulic press that compressed it. Afterwards, it was removed from the mold, allowed to dry and immersed in water for 24 hours. So that the cement was perfectly hardened, the tiles were sprayed with water and placed in a humid chamber for 28 days, which is the time it takes for the cement to harden due to the chemical process initiated by the water. Hence it gets the name hydraulic and not from the fact of using hydraulic presses (initially the presses were manual).

It is important to note that although their use has decreased, there are still many factories that continue to make them in the traditional way, both for use in the restoration of old houses, and to be placed in new properties.

The hydraulic floor manufacturing system has changed practically nothing since its origins.

Hydraulic tiles are not made of clay or adobe, nor fired, as is the case with ceramic tiles. As the name suggests, these floors are made of cement compressed with hydraulic presses. This gives them great resistance and solidity.

In addition to their resistance, these tiles are characterized by their versatility, their great variety of designs and natural colors that make them suitable for both interiors and exteriors.[3]​.

Hydraulic pavement can withstand large loads, that is, a large number of heavy cars circulating without deforming. Because of this, it also has a fairly long lifespan. It tends to improve visibility, does not deform and allows vehicles to slide better when cornering. Another important advantage is that it does not provide restrictions to cars when they are moving, which means savings in gasoline consumption.

It is usually a little more slippery than asphalt, so in the rainy season or in certain driving circumstances, the use of hydraulic mosaic can mean a disadvantage and even a danger for the driver.
