What Affects the Cost of Epoxy Flooring?
1. Type of Epoxy Used
Water-Based Epoxy: More affordable but less durable.
100% Solid Epoxy: Highly durable but more expensive
2. Surface Preparation
Concrete must be cleaned, repaired, and prepped before epoxy application.
Grinding and leveling increase costs but ensure a smooth, lasting finish.
3. Thickness of Application
Thin film coatings are cheaper but less durable.
- Thicker coatings (1-9mm) last longer but cost more.
4. Size of the Area
Larger projects benefit from bulk pricing and lower cost per square meter.

Anti-slip coatings, moisture barriers, & topcoats add to pricing.
