Understand the factors behind an epoxy flooring quote in Melbourne, from grinding and repairs to flakes, topcoats, access and downtime.

Why square-metre prices can be misleading

Two floors with the same area can require very different preparation. One may be clean, sound concrete; another may have paint, oil, adhesive, cracks or moisture concerns. That difference can be more important than the floor size itself.

The main cost factors

Floor area, concrete condition, grinding, old coating removal, crack repairs, system build, decorative flakes, topcoat, access and return-to-service timing all influence the scope.

How to get a useful quote

Send your suburb, approximate square metres, photos of the whole floor and close-ups of damage or existing coatings. Explain whether the space is a garage, workshop, warehouse or customer-facing area.

Compare quotes by scope, not only price

Ask what preparation is included, what coating system is proposed, how repairs are treated and when the floor can return to use. A lower number is not a saving if important preparation has simply been left out.
