Epoxy flake flooring in Burpengary & Moreton Bay

Epoxy flake flooring turns bare concrete into a seamless, speckled floor that hides dust and marks and sweeps or hoses out easily. We lay it in garages, sheds, carports and undercover patios. Based in Burpengary, working across Moreton Bay and into north Brisbane.

What's involved

Ground, coated, flaked

A flake floor is a built-up system, not a coat of paint, and most of how well it holds up comes down to the preparation underneath. Here's how a typical floor goes.

  1. Step 1: Look and quote

    We look at the slab first: how big it is, what's on it now (paint, sealer, oil), whether there are cracks, and how the space gets used. That decides the preparation, and the price.

  2. Step 2: Grind the concrete

    The floor is ground back to clean, sound concrete so the coating has something to grip. Old paint, sealer and surface contamination come off with it. The before-and-after on this page was caught halfway through this stage.

  3. Step 3: Fill and repair

    Cracks, chips and holes are filled so they don't telegraph through the finished floor.

  4. Step 4: Base coat and flake

    A coloured base coat goes down and the flake is broadcast into it while it's wet, covering the floor wall to wall. The flake blend is your choice, from greys to browns and golds.

  5. Step 5: Clear topcoat

    Once the base has cured, loose flake is scraped back and a clear topcoat seals it all in. That's the layer you sweep, mop and hose.

What it suits

Where a flake floor works

Home garages
Sheds & workshops
Carports
Undercover patios

Flake floors suit a concrete slab that gets dusty, stained or just looks unfinished: the double garage, the new steel shed, the carport the car sits in, the undercover patio out the back. The speckled finish hides dust, tyre marks and the odd drip far better than bare concrete or a plain painted floor.

They're easy to live with. A broom or a hose does most of the cleaning, and spills sit on top instead of soaking in. In a shed or workshop that's the difference between a floor you sweep and a floor you put up with.

Flake isn't meant for every surface. It's built for covered concrete, so exposed driveways and paths in full sun are usually better off sealed or re-coloured instead. If you're not sure which suits your job, ask.

Common questions

Epoxy flake flooring, straight answers

Anything not covered here, call 0438 708 830 and ask.

Is epoxy flake flooring slippery when it's wet?

It can be slipperier than bare concrete when wet, like most smooth, sealed floors. The flake gives a bit of texture, and an anti-slip additive in the topcoat is a common option for floors that get wet, so it's worth raising when we look at the job.

Can you put epoxy flake over an old garage floor with oil stains?

Usually, yes, but the preparation decides it. Oil and old coatings stop a new coating from bonding, so the floor is ground back to sound concrete first. Heavily oil-soaked patches can need extra work, and we'll check that when we look at it.

What's the difference between epoxy flake and painting the garage floor?

A flake floor is a thicker, built-up system, where garage floor paint is a single thin coat. The concrete is ground, a base coat goes down, flake is broadcast into it and a clear topcoat seals it in. Thin paints are known for lifting under hot tyres, and the flake hides dust and marks much better.

Can I choose the flake colour for my garage floor?

Yes. Flake comes in a range of blends, and the photos on this page show a grey blend and a cream, brown and gold one. Lighter blends brighten a dark garage; mid greys hide dust and tyre marks best. We can talk through blends when we quote.
