Question 1

How much does an epoxy garage floor cost in Sydney?

Accepted Answer

Sydney epoxy garage floors typically cost $1,000 to $9,600 depending on system and garage size. For a standard double garage (40 to 60sqm): solid colour $1,000 to $3,600, flake $2,000 to $5,400, metallic $4,000 to $9,600. All quotes include diamond grinding preparation, primer, body coats, topcoat, and a written workmanship warranty.

Question 2

What is the best epoxy system for a Sydney garage?

Accepted Answer

Flake epoxy is the system commonly chosen for Sydney residential garages. It hides slab imperfections, masks future tyre pickup and oil spots, comes in many colour blends, and provides P4 to P5 slip resistance with a topcoat. Solid colour suits utility garages or workshops; metallic suits premium homes.

Question 3

How long does it take to epoxy a Sydney garage?

Accepted Answer

A standard double garage (40 to 60sqm) takes 2 to 3 days. Day 1 is diamond grinding and crack repair, day 2 is primer plus base coat with flake broadcast, day 3 is the clear topcoat. Walkable in 24 hours, full vehicle use in 72 hours.

Question 4

Can I epoxy over an existing garage floor coating?

Accepted Answer

No. Existing coatings must be mechanically removed first. We diamond grind back to bare concrete to achieve a clean CSP 2 to 3 profile. Coating over an old or failing coating is a frequent cause of premature epoxy failure in residential garages.

Question 5

Will hot tyres lift the epoxy off my garage floor?

Accepted Answer

Hot tyre pickup is usually caused by poor preparation or the wrong topcoat. Surface Master Australia diamond grinds every Sydney garage and finishes with a UV-stable polyaspartic or polyurethane topcoat rated for hot tyre contact.

Question 7

Is the epoxy garage floor slippery when wet?

Accepted Answer

Standard epoxy has moderate slip resistance. Flake systems are inherently slip-resistant due to the broadcast texture (typically P4). For solid colour or metallic garages, we add aluminium oxide or fine quartz anti-slip aggregate to the topcoat to achieve P4 or P5.

Question 8

What warranty do you offer on Sydney epoxy garage floors?

Accepted Answer

Surface Master Australia provides a written workmanship warranty on every Sydney garage epoxy installation. Warranty terms cover delamination and coating failure when used as specified, and are confirmed in writing in your quote before work starts.
