Is epoxy flooring right for my patio?
Check out the following scenarios to determine whether your patio would benefit from a flooring upgrade:
- Visible Damage: If your patio surface has noticeable cracks, chips, or stains that are hard to clean, it might be time to consider epoxy. It can seamlessly cover and protect these imperfections, providing a smooth, uniform appearance.
- Frequent Maintenance: If you find yourself constantly cleaning or repairing your patio, epoxy can significantly reduce maintenance efforts. Its durable and non-porous surface resists dirt, oil, and other contaminants, making it easy to clean.
- Aesthetic Appeal: If your patio looks outdated or doesn't compliment your outdoor decor, epoxy can transform its appearance. With a variety of colours and finishes available, you can achieve a modern and attractive look that suits your style.
- Safety Concerns: Uneven or slippery surfaces can be hazardous. Epoxy provides a slip-resistant and level surface, enhancing the safety of your patio area.
- Durability Needs: If your patio endures heavy foot traffic, exposure to harsh weather, or the weight of outdoor furniture, epoxy offers excellent durability and resistance to wear and tear.
- Boost Property Value: Considering selling your home? An attractive, low-maintenance patio can enhance curb appeal and potentially increase your property’s value.
If any of these points resonate with your current patio situation, it’s a good indication that epoxy could be the right solution for you.

How much does patio epoxy flooring cost?
The cost can vary based on several factors such as the size of the area, the type of epoxy used, and the complexity of the job.
Below is a general pricing guide to help you understand the potential costs involved:
| Type of Epoxy | Price Range (per m2) | Details |
| Basic Epoxy Coating | $50 - $80 | Single-layer coating, suitable for minimal traffic areas. |
| Standard Epoxy | $70 - $90 | Multi-layer coating with added durability, suitable for residential patios. |
| Decorative Epoxy Flooring | $110 - $140 | Includes decorative finishes such as metallic or flake epoxy. |
| High-Performance Epoxy Flooring | $140 - $180 | Industrial-grade epoxy, highly durable and resistant to heavy traffic and harsh conditions. |
Factors Affecting the Cost:
- Surface Preparation: The condition of your existing patio surface can impact the cost. Additional work may be required to prepare the surface before applying the epoxy.
- Complexity of Design: Custom designs, patterns, or colours can increase the cost due to the additional labour and materials required.
- Size of the Area: Larger areas might benefit from a lower cost per square metre due to economies of scale, but the overall price will be higher.

How long does patio epoxy flooring take to install?
The duration for completing a patio epoxy flooring project can vary based on several factors, but generally, you can expect the process to take between 3 to 5 days.
Here’s a breakdown of the typical timeline:
Surface Preparation (1-2 days):
- Cleaning and Repairs: The existing surface needs to be thoroughly cleaned and any cracks or damages repaired. This ensures proper adhesion of the epoxy.
- Grinding or Etching: The surface may need to be mechanically ground or acid-etched to create a suitable profile for the epoxy to bond to.
Epoxy Application (1-2 days):
- Primer Coat: A primer coat is applied first to ensure good adhesion. This usually takes a few hours to dry.
- Base Coat: The main layer of epoxy is applied next. Depending on the type and thickness of the epoxy, drying times can vary.
- Additional Coats: For decorative finishes or additional durability, extra layers such as decorative flakes or a clear topcoat are added. Each layer requires adequate drying time before the next can be applied.
Curing Time (3-7 days):
- Upon the final application, the floor needs time to fully cure. While it may be 'touch' dry within 24 hours, the floor may be able to be walked on after 1-2 days. This could include light items.
For heavier & more robust equipment, allow 7 days for a fully cured floor. This includes vehicles.
Factors Influencing Time:
- Climatic Conditions: Low humidity &/or low temperatures can extend drying & curing times.
- Complexity of Design: Custom patterns or multiple coats will add to the overall time required.
- Size of the Area: Larger areas might take longer to complete due to the increased amount of surface preparation and epoxy application needed.
How can I identify a professional patio epoxy flooring installer?
Choosing the right provider for your patio epoxy flooring is crucial to ensure a high-quality and durable finish. Here are some key factors to consider when identifying a professional service:
✓ Experience and Expertise: Look for providers with extensive experience. Check their portfolio for past projects similar to yours. You can also verify their expertise by asking about the types of epoxy they use, application techniques, and knowledge of surface preparation.
✓ Reputation and Reviews: Read online reviews and testimonials from previous customers. Positive feedback and high ratings are good indicators of reliable service.
✓ Certifications and Credentials: Ensure the provider is licensed and insured. This protects you in case of any accidents or damages during the project.
✓ Detailed Quotes and Transparency: A detailed quote should outline the cost, materials to be used, and the timeline for the project. Be wary of providers who give vague or overly low estimates, as this can indicate hidden costs or subpar materials.
✓ Quality of Materials: Inquire about the types of epoxy and other materials used. High-quality, commercial-grade epoxy will offer better durability and finish.
✓ Warranty and Aftercare: Check if the provider offers a warranty on their workmanship and materials. This shows they stand behind their service and are confident in their quality.
✓ Customer Service: Evaluate their customer service from your initial contact. Professional providers should be responsive, willing to answer your questions and provide guidance throughout the process.

Epoxy finish options
Flake Floor Finish
With the endless colour schemes & designs of flake, it is the most popular system, particularly in garage floor coatings. It's a robust & durable finish & comparatively cost effective to other finishes. See our most popular & unique colours in the 'Garage Blend' range.
Metallic Floor Finish
One of the most unique floor finishes you can have, this system is for that 'special' area & screams 'LOOK AT ME.' There is so much that can be achieved with this style from 'subtle' to 'striking' and with numerous colours that can 'stand alone' or flow into one another creating an area where there is always a new place to look at & admire.
Top Coat Finish
Resin products are naturally high gloss, increasing slip potential, especially when wet. To balance style and safety, we recommend slip resistance, adjusting size and amount to ensure safety and ease of cleaning for a longer-lasting floor.
Custom Finish
We can offer unique designs for your area from decals emblazoned into the floor to creating a 'glow in the dark' number in your driveway & so many limitless possibilities. Think it & we will create it...
