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.

Epoxy vs Polyurethane Floor Coatings — Which Should You Choose?

Epoxy is the body, polyurethane is the armour. Here's how the two systems differ and why most good floors use both.

How they differ

Epoxy is a rigid, high-build resin that bonds hard to concrete and gives you thickness, impact resistance and a seamless surface. Polyurethane is more flexible, far more UV stable and more resistant to abrasion and scuffing, but it is applied thin and needs something underneath it.

Where each wins

Choose by exposure, not by brand.

Internal garage or workshop: epoxy build coat, polyurethane topcoat
Sun-exposed patio, carport or pool surround: polyurethane or polyaspartic topcoat is essential
Commercial kitchen or wash-down area: chemical-resistant epoxy with a coved edge
Warehouse traffic lanes: high-build epoxy for impact, PU for scuff resistance

Why straight epoxy yellows outdoors

Standard epoxy chalks and ambers under Gold Coast UV. On any slab that sees direct sun we specify a UV-stable polyurethane or polyaspartic finish coat — it keeps the colour true and the flake pattern crisp for years longer.

The system we specify most

Diamond grind, epoxy primer, epoxy build coat (with flake or quartz if requested), then a two-pack polyurethane topcoat with anti-slip additive tuned to the space. It costs marginally more than an epoxy-only floor and lasts far longer.
