Looking to add new life to your floors? Melbourne epoxy flooring may be the solution you’re looking for.
Epoxy flooring is rapidly becoming a preferred floor covering for both commercial and residential uses. Its robust nature, ease of installation, cost efficiency, and extensive range of finishes make it suitable for everything from domestic kitchens and bathrooms to retail outlets, sports venues, industrial environments, and more.
Epoxy floor coverings involve pouring a 3mm to 6mm layer over an existing concrete slab. Typically, flooring for a single room can be prepared and poured within a day, requires 24 hours to dry, and reaches full curing within 7 days, making them among the fastest and most durable flooring solutions available.

Epoxy Flooring Finishes
Epoxy flooring can be tailored to match the aesthetics of your commercial or residential space, offering a variety of functional and decorative finishes.
Flake
Flake flooring is created by spreading coloured vinyl flakes over the base epoxy layer to add texture and interest to your floor. This style allows for a wide range of options to suit your aesthetic needs including clear or coloured epoxy and a choice of flake styles with a beautiful glossy finish.
Gloss
Epoxy flooring offers the choice of both semi-gloss and high-gloss flooring options. A gloss finish creates a sleek and reflective surface, perfect for opening up dark spaces and creating a high end look and feel. Gloss flooring is often chosen in showrooms, hotels and retail but is also ideal for adding an industrial vibe to homes.
Matte
Looking for something a little more subtle? Matte or satin finishes are created by adding a matte topcoat over the cured epoxy resin, offering a great option for reducing glare and hiding imperfections in high traffic areas.
Non-Slip (Anti-Slip)
Epoxy naturally possesses non-slip qualities, but if safety is paramount for your area, we can enhance slip resistance by incorporating anti-slip materials like silica sand, pumice, polymer grit, or coloured quartz to increase traction.

Common Questions
What is the lifespan of epoxy floors?
Epoxy floor longevity is influenced by factors like the chosen finish, the setting (with higher demands in some commercial environments), and maintenance. Generally, commercial epoxy floors last 2-7 years, and residential ones can last up to 10 years.
What makes epoxy flooring superior to concrete?
Epoxy has a range of benefits over concrete including being fast to install, more cost effective and more aesthetically pleasing but often the choice comes down to your own requirements and personal preference.
How long does epoxy take to install?
Installing an epoxy coating is generally fast, often taking just one day (depending on the space size). Initial drying takes around 12 hours, making the floor walkable, and full curing is achieved in about 7 days.
How stain-resistant is epoxy flooring?
Epoxy coating creates a stain-resistant barrier between the top surface of the floor and the concrete underneath, making it easy to clean and resistant to stains from oils, dyes, food and drink.
Does epoxy flooring become slippery when wet?
While the shiny surface may give off the illusion of a slippery finish, epoxy floors are known for being more slip-resistant than comparable finishes like polished concrete. Additional slip proof materials can also be added to increase grip if desired.
Is epoxy flooring impact or scratch resistant?
Epoxy is a tough material, making it resilient to most wear and tear. Nevertheless, sharp object drops, heavy impacts, or prolonged grit exposure might lead to cracks or chips.
Can epoxy be used in areas other than floors?
Yes it can. Epoxy can be suitable for a range of surfaces including Formica, laminate, tile, ceramic, porcelain, glass and concrete.
Can you epoxy over tiles?
With correct preparation and application, epoxy can be applied over tiles making it a great option for refinishing bathrooms, kitchens and other tiled areas.
What is the difference between epoxy and resin?
Epoxy is actually a type of resin itself, so it falls under the category of resin flooring. However, there are other resin flooring options that differ from epoxy such as polyurethane which is heavier and thicker.
