How much does epoxy flooring cost in Tweed Heads?

Epoxy floors in Tweed Heads usually run $60–$120 per square metre installed, depending on the existing slab condition, grinding and moisture testing required, and whether you choose flake, metallic or a plain solid colour.

How long before I can drive on a new epoxy floor?

Foot traffic is generally fine after 24 hours and vehicle traffic after 5–7 days. Full chemical cure takes about a week in Tweed Heads's humidity, so we schedule the job around when you need the space back.

Does the concrete have to be ground first?

Yes — diamond grinding the slab is what gives epoxy something to key into. Roll-on kits applied over sealed or dusty concrete are the most common reason coatings peel.

Are you licensed and insured to work in Tweed Heads?

Yes. Munn & Co. Finishes holds an NSW painting licence and a QLD QBCC licence, and we carry full public liability insurance. Licence and insurance details are supplied in writing with every Tweed Heads quote.

Why Epoxy Floors Fail — Preparation and Diamond Grinding Explained

Peeling epoxy is almost never a resin problem. It's a prep problem — here's what proper surface preparation actually involves.

Mechanical profile beats chemistry

Epoxy bonds mechanically. The slab has to be opened up to a concrete surface profile (CSP 2–3) so resin can key into the pores. Diamond grinding achieves that consistently; acid etching does not, and it leaves salts behind that undermine adhesion.

The preparation sequence

Every floor we coat follows the same order.

Strip coatings, adhesives and sealers; degrease oil-contaminated areas
Diamond grind the full slab with dust-extracted planetary grinders
Repair cracks, spalls and joints with resin mortar
Moisture-test the slab (relative humidity or calcium chloride)
Vacuum, tack off, then prime while the profile is clean

Moisture is the silent killer

Slabs on ground without an effective vapour barrier push moisture upward. If vapour pressure exceeds the coating's tolerance, you get blisters and disbondment months later. A moisture-mitigating primer costs a fraction of recoating the whole floor.

Signs your floor was prepped badly

Coating lifting in sheets rather than tearing, a shiny slab under the failed patch, bubbles clustered near walls or door thresholds, and peeling that starts where tyres turn. All of those point back to profile, moisture or contamination.
