Commercial & Industrial Epoxy Flooring Melbourne
Hard-wearing floors for Melbourne warehouses, factories and workshops. We look at the slab, recommend the right system and put the scope and price in writing before anything starts. Greater Melbourne and surrounding Victorian areas, 15+ years on the tools, APC Advantage Platinum Member.
Enquiring is simple. Start with your suburb, roughly how many square metres the floor is, a few photos and what the building is used for. You do not need to choose a coating before you enquire - the site assessment decides the specification and the final price. Manufacturer warranty of up to 5 years applies to the applicable systems, as set out in your written quote and terms.
Featured project: 400m² Port Melbourne warehouse
A 400m² commercial warehouse in Port Melbourne, formerly an old workshop. The existing floor was badly worn and damaged. We carried out agreed crack and surface repairs and patching, fully ground the slab, then finished it as a Grind & Seal with two coats of sealer designed for high traffic. This one is a Grind & Seal floor, not an epoxy coating — it is the natural concrete finish option. Read the Port Melbourne case study.

Plain epoxy, Epoxy Flake or Grind & Seal?
There is no single right answer, and suitability depends on the slab, the traffic it carries and what lands on it. Epoxy Flooring as a plain coat gives a solid-colour finish, seamless across the floor. Cleaning needs depend on the specified texture, and a plain colour may show dust, tyre marks and scuffs more readily. Epoxy Flake broadcasts decorative flake into the coating before clear coating, so marks and minor concrete imperfections are far less obvious, with some texture that takes a scrub in heavily soiled areas. Grind & Seal grinds the existing slab back and seals it, keeping real concrete on show; the sealer sits on top of the slab, so it wears where traffic concentrates and is recoated as part of normal upkeep.
What changes the price of a commercial floor
We do not publish a square-metre rate for commercial work, because two floors of the same size can be very different jobs. The price moves with the floor area, how much grinding the slab needs to get back to sound concrete, removal of old coatings, glue, paint or carpet residue, agreed static crack and surface repairs, holes and patches with existing joints assessed, the system specified for the area and the number of coats it is built from, access including loading dock or stair access, power, height and racking, and phasing — whether the floor is done in one hit or staged in sections around your operation.
From assessment to handover
We walk the floor and check the slab, traffic, exposure, access and power. You then get the recommended system, the scope of preparation and the price in writing before anything is booked. We agree the sequence and the working window, including staged areas, nights or a weekend where that is part of the agreed scope. Then grinding, coating removal, agreed static crack and surface repairs and clean-down, with existing expansion joints assessed and left open rather than coated over, the agreed system built in coats area by area, and a handover walk-through explaining how to clean and look after the floor.
Installation time and return to traffic are two different things. Days on site depend on the area, the preparation and the system; when the floor can take foot traffic and vehicles again depends on the products used and the site conditions, so the return-to-service times for your floor are confirmed by the installer for your actual job rather than assumed from a residential garage. Staged, night and weekend work is arranged around the agreed scope and schedule; it is planned to keep disruption down, not a promise of uninterrupted operation.
More of our commercial work
Our own jobs, not catalogue shots: Eye Candy Melbourne in South Yarra, a commercial beauty salon finished with a seamless cream epoxy plain coat, and a factory floor finished with a full Epoxy Flake system in Carbon Black with a 10% Mint flake blend. More completed floors are on our project case studies page.
Extra detail, if you have it
None of this is required to enquire; it just helps us come prepared to the site assessment. The traffic on the floor — forklifts, pallet jacks, trolleys, vehicles, foot traffic; oils, chemicals, wash-down or hot water in the area; access such as roller doors, stairs, height, racking and power on site; a preferred shutdown window or the hours the area is free; and whether there is an existing coating that is lifting or peeling.
Where we coat
Warehouses with racking runs, pick aisles and loading zones; factory production floors and plant rooms coated in stages around your shifts; mechanical and fabrication workshops where oil, tools and point loads land; and commercial kitchens needing seamless, easy-clean floors for food prep and wash areas.
We also quote industrial epoxy flooring in West Melbourne, decorative epoxy flake flooring Melbourne, commercial kitchen epoxy flooring, and anti-slip epoxy flooring Melbourne for wet and high-traffic zones.

Why is there no package price for commercial floors?
Slab condition, floor area, preparation, the system specified and how the work has to be staged all change the job, so commercial and industrial floors are quoted after a site assessment.
Do I need to know which coating I want before enquiring?
No. Send your suburb, the approximate floor area, a few photos and what the building is used for. The specification is worked out at the site assessment.
Can you work around our operating hours?
In many cases yes. Work can be staged in zones, or run at night or over a weekend, where that is part of the agreed scope and schedule.
What sites do you coat?
Warehouses, factories, workshops, commercial kitchens, showrooms and other Melbourne and Victorian commercial slabs.
How long before we can use the floor again?
Installation time and return to traffic are separate. Both depend on the area, the system used and site conditions, so the installer confirms the times for your floor.
