Metallic Epoxy Showroom Case Study in Chatswood
A commercial showroom in Chatswood had extensive adhesive residue from a previous fit-out at multiple levels. The client required a premium metallic epoxy floor to complement a high-end retail refurbishment. We removed the fit-out residue, created the correct profile, installed a custom metallic epoxy blend, and protected the surface with a UV-stable polyurethane topcoat after hours.

This 120–180 sqm metallic epoxy showroom flooring project shows how preparation, repairs, selected finish, access, and handover timing shape a written scope. Metallic epoxy magnifies substrate defects, so adhesive removal and profile control were essential for a reflective showroom finish.
FAQs
How much does metallic epoxy flooring cost in Sydney?
Metallic epoxy flooring in Sydney costs $100 to $160 per square metre installed. The premium pricing reflects the metallic pigment cost, the multi-layer build, the artistic application technique, and the UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat required to protect the metallic effect from yellowing.
Is metallic epoxy worth the extra cost compared to flake or solid colour?
Metallic epoxy is worth the extra cost when the floor is part of the customer experience — showrooms, dealerships, hospitality, premium residential garages, and reception areas. For utility spaces (workshops, warehouses, back-of-house) flake or solid colour epoxy delivers the same durability at a lower price point.
How is metallic epoxy different from regular epoxy?
Metallic epoxy uses metallic pigment particles in a transparent epoxy carrier that create a three-dimensional swirled, rippled effect when applied. Unlike solid colour epoxy which gives uniform coverage, each metallic floor is unique — the pigments move during application creating a one-of-a-kind pattern.
