How long does epoxy flooring last in Queensland?

High-quality epoxy flooring typically lasts 10–20 years when properly installed and maintained. Queensland's climate is generally kind to epoxy, but UV-stable topcoats are recommended for any areas exposed to sunlight. We use commercial-grade materials that withstand Queensland's heat and humidity.

How much does epoxy flooring cost in Queensland?

Epoxy flooring costs vary depending on floor size, condition, finish type and preparation required. As a guide, residential garage floors start from around $25–$45 per m², while decorative metallic systems can range from $60–$120+ per m². We provide free, no-obligation quotes after inspecting your floor.

How long does epoxy take to dry and cure?

You can typically walk on an epoxy floor 24 hours after application, and return vehicles or heavy equipment after 5–7 days. Full chemical cure takes approximately 7–14 days depending on temperature and humidity. We'll give you exact timelines for your specific job.

Can epoxy be applied over existing concrete or tiles?

Yes — in most cases epoxy can be applied directly over existing concrete after proper surface preparation (diamond grinding or shot blasting). Existing tiles may need to be removed first if they are hollow or unstable. We assess every floor before recommending the right approach.

What preparation is needed before epoxy is installed?

Surface preparation is the most critical step. We use diamond grinding or shot blasting to open the concrete pores, remove contamination and create a mechanical profile for the epoxy to bond to. Any cracks or spalling are repaired before coating begins.

Is epoxy flooring slippery when wet?

Standard high-gloss epoxy can be slippery when wet. We always incorporate a non-slip aggregate (aluminium oxide or quartz) into the final coat for garage floors, commercial areas, and anywhere traction is important — at no extra cost. We can also supply textured finishes.

Do I need to move furniture or vehicles before installation?

Yes — the floor area needs to be completely clear before we start. For garages, all vehicles, storage and shelving should be removed. For residential or commercial spaces, we'll confirm requirements when we book your job.

Do you offer a warranty on epoxy flooring?

Yes. All our epoxy flooring installations come with a workmanship warranty. Residential floors receive a 5-year workmanship guarantee; commercial jobs are covered for 3 years. Material warranties are provided by our suppliers separately.
