How do we finish in one day when others take 10 days?*
Our difference from other systems that are available on the market begins with the products we recommend.
We are the Sunshine Coast’s exclusive authorised installer of SDI Resin Systems products that are 100% Australian made.
SDI Resin Systems cure by Thermal Reaction and traditional systems cure by thermal reaction and evaporation.
This means Same Day Systems are not reliant on the weather, and rain or humidity don’t slow down their curing speed.
Also the SDI Resin Systems 100% solids epoxy has a rapid cure agent in it which speeds up its curing time.
This allows us to complete the installation in one day as opposed to waiting for evaporation to cure each layer which takes several days.
Also since SDI Resin Systems products first started in the industrial sector they’re formulated to be strong enough to drive on the next day.
All our epoxy floor installations use SDI Resin Systems 100% Solids Epoxy. This means that no gases are released into your home or business once it’s applied and this is important for people that are prone to allergies.
The nasty smells from multi day epoxy systems are caused by off-gassing from the products evaporating during the curing process.
Our Same Day Epoxy Floors eliminate this discomfort for homeowners thanks to the Thermal Reaction curing process.
Also the products are free of Volatile Organic Compounds.

Epoxy Flake Flooring FAQ
-
The average floor will last for years & the best products have a Lifetime Warranty.
-
Not under normal conditions and use. It’s extremely hard wearing and will easily handle sedans, 4WD’s, SUV’s etc being driven on it.
Industrial Grade epoxies are capable of forklifts, pallet jacks and even planes being moved on it. We did a short video to show the results of a test we did with our work truck to see just how much we could attempt to crack or chip & damage an epoxy coating in 12 months.
This video answers the question “Will an epoxy floor crack or chip?”. Check out the incredible results here...

Not if applied correctly. However the best way to ensure that the coating doesn’t peel is to confirm that the installer will be grinding the floor before applying the epoxy. Acid washing (also called acid etching) is a method that does get promoted and it can work but it’s risky due to Acid Residue, seen in Image A.
Acid residue gets left behind after acid etching and can be difficult to remove. This is because once the floor is wet from you scrubbing and hosing the residue is difficult to see and remains that way even when dry. The consequences of not removing it though are disastrous. Image B shows a floor we were called to repair which started to peel just days after the owner installed it. The cause of the peeling was acid residue.
Personally when I just did my own garage recently I ran a grinder over it first. We did a small sample on a garage to show the difference between grinding and acid washing which you can see below. You can be the judge which you think is the best way to prepare your floor.

NO provided that the flooring is not exposed to UV light. But if a plain epoxy floor is exposed to sunlight it will yellow or amber like in Image A (below). Image B shows what the floor looked like when it was first applied. This is the section of the floor that did not get sunlight on it.
There are a number of solutions to prevent your epoxy from turning yellow.
Firstly, don’t expose it to sunlight. This is good in theory but in a garage, for example, a lot of the time when you open the door sunlight will creep in. So that leads to the second solution and that is to cover the epoxy with vinyl flakes because they will not turn yellow. This is called a full flake seamless epoxy floor (shown below).
These flakes are then covered with a 100% UV stable top coat. Polyaspartic, Polyurethane and Polyurea clear top coats are excellent options for UV stability. Polyaspartic coats are fast drying, have no harmful VOC’s and are extremely hard wearing and flexible so they are suitable for very tough conditions. Some polyaspartic top coats have Rapid Cure properties which means they can have traffic on them 4 hours after being applied.

If you use a 100% solids epoxy this is virtually odourless.
If you use a solvent-based epoxy it will smell until it is fully cured and this can be around 10-14 days.
100% solids means that evaporation doesn’t occur in order for the epoxy to cure. Think of honey. It is a 100% solid product IE it is just all 100% honey and if you spill it none of it will evaporate. It will just sit as a sticky mess for ages, or until your dog comes and licks it up. So it releases no gases from evaporation and therefore you don’t smell these gases being released.
100% solids epoxy are like honey and don’t evaporate and release smelly or harmful gases to get hard. The epoxy that is made from the chemicals being blended together are just like all different types of honey they all blend together in the bucket and react with each other to create a reaction that makes them all form one hard substance.
Smelly and potentially harmful types of epoxies are made with solvent bases. Think of ACETONE or nail polish remover. This is a solvent and these solvents evaporating from the epoxy are what you smell until they are fully cured. So if you don’t think it’s a good idea to sniff solvents, like sniffing nail polish remover for example, you need to check that the product you want to install isn’t solvent based.

Not normally and under ordinary day to day use it is basically bullet-proof. But if you try hard enough you can probably scratch it.
One of the commercial bakery jobs we did gave their floor a rigorous test. About 8 hours after we finished the bakers returned to work and dragged a 200kg machine across the floor.
Here’s a pic below of me trying to push the machine myself and I couldn’t shift it at all.
The next image shows the floor close up after they dragged the machine back into place.
You can barely see where they had scratched it and the owners were delighted with the floor’s strength.

No... but only if it has had a a form of Slip Resistance coating seeded into the top coat.
Common types of slip resistance grits are Aluminium Oxide and Silica and they look and feel like grains of sand.
These grains are pressed into the top coat and once the coat has cured the grains are a permanent part of the floor.
There are different sizes of grains so the slip resistance can be increased or decreased as required.

Thankyou to the team at Epoxy Flooring. I appreciate the way you acted honourably by acknowledging your responsibility to redo my garage floor. The finished job looks great I won’t hesitate to recommend you to others in the future. Dan and Terese were a pleasure to have working at my home. Dianne
Axl absolutely LOVES the new garage/laundry flooring from Epoxy Flooring Co!! Looks absolutely amazing ❤️ Hard wearing, easy to keep clean and makes the space look so much bigger than before. Can’t thank the team enough, particularly Alex who came out to do the install for us. He was early (which in Queensland can be rare 😂), communicated everything so effectively, was polite, courteous and did such a professional job. Has totally transformed what was a run down looking space, and so cost effective too.
My husband and I are so pleased with the amazing difference that Alex has created on our patio. The floor had caused me no end of embarrassment when we entertained on the patio because of the dreadful condition of the floor. But Alex has worked a miracle because the patio has become brighter and brilliant from the lovely epoxy treatment. The visitors to our place over the weekend were very impressed with the quality of workmanship. Thank you Alex for upgrading a really shabby looking entertainment area. Alex was so respectful and polite and worked so hard to ensure a smooth surface. We are so very pleased to have chosen Epoxy FlooringCo and Alex is a part of your team. Cheryl and Peter Souvlis.
If I could rate this business higher than 5 start I would. From the booking process and communications to the execution of the job, it was a flawless experience. Alex was a delight to deal with and our space looks incredible. Should have done this sooner. We used the colour Laguna Waters and it was a nice light grey/white finish.
Flawless service across the entire process from quote through to install and answering our post install queries. The installer was on time, professional and efficient.
Alex was fantastic. Explained the process and took pride in his work. Efficient, clean and professional
Wonderful company to deal with from start to finish. Thrilled with the product and service. Tom installed for us. Lovely man. He was particularly fastidious. A perfectionist! Highly recommend.
Franny & Matteo from Epoxy Flooring Co did a fantastic job transforming our double garage concrete floor with the SDI Nexus full flake composite epoxy flooring system. Very professional and extremely satisfied with the epoxy coating.
Australian made, 20 years warranty and 5 star reviews. From start to finish impressed by professional service from Tim, professional job carried out by Dave to a high standard. Job booked, punctual, tidy and delivered as promised. We would highly recommended these guys from Coolum for a job well done.

Dave did an amazing job in our garage, and we’re thrilled with the result. The service was fantastic, and the staff were incredibly friendly. The photos speak for themselves!
We have recently had our garage floor transformed with epoxy flake flooring, Coolum Sands. We are delighted with the result and Franny and Matteo did a great job.
We got our shed floor done earlier this week and are really pleased with the final result. The process was easy from initial contact to the install. 5/5 highly recommend
Franny was excellent from start to finish turning the garage from a dirty floor with hundreds of marks to pristine. Thankyou.
Great job. I was kept updated on the progress and pleased with the end result.
We are so happy with the result of the flooring in our garage and it’s simply spectacular! Big shout out for Alex and Cesca for their professionalism and friendliness throughout the process. Their works are beyond perfection! I highly recommend Epoxy if anyone needs flooring works. 😎
Tom and Matteo did fantastic job! Tom was professional, great communication, attention to detail and the final finish looks amazing. Great quality and excellent service — highly recommend, before and after attached images.
Thank you to the Epoxy Flooring Team for stress free experience from start to finish. Tom you did an amazing job very impressed with your work.
Had an exceptional experience with Epoxy Flooring Co. Tim was my main contact and he was awesome to deal with the whole way through, easy to chat to, super helpful, and knew exactly what he was doing. He walked me through the options and made the whole process really straight forward. No stress, no mucking around. The finished garage floor came up unreal. You can tell they actually care about doing a proper job and not just rushing it. Would definitely recommend them if you’re thinking about getting epoxy done.
This was a top quality experience. The quote was easy and fast to obtain and Sean was great to deal with. He didn't pressure me at all and let me feel comfortable about asking any questions to make sure I was happy with my decision. Maggie did all my admin over the weekend so my job could go ahead quickly, which I needed. Tom did the actual installation and went to a lot of effort to make sure the damaged garage floor was repaired and even fixed some holes that weren't his responsibility. The end result is stunning. It's made such a difference to my garage, it looks too good to drive on! I'd highly recommend these guys.
We have recently build a new home and wanted a durable floor surface coating for our garage. Opted for epoxy flaked based systems given its known durability, but they are not all created the same nor backed by long warranties. We looked at many options but finally settled on the EFC Industrial Grade Nexus System. Cost slightly more but you get what you pay for. Tim and Tom has been great from the initial enquiry through to installation. Tom was very meticulous in the installation and turned out great. Done in a day given its chemical reaction based curing, not weather dependent. Thanks guys, looks great and highly recommend. Colour chosen was Hastings.
Dan and his offsider did a fantastic job!! They managed to fit around very difficult weather and the finished product is excellent
Fantastic service... Tim, Tom and the guys do a fantastic job. It's very rare to find a company that pays so much attention to detail and customer service. These guys go above and beyond. Satisfied customer here...
Really happy with the epoxy flooring! It looks great, was done smoothly, and completely upgraded the space. Would definitely recommend.
We would just like to thank Tom for a fantastic job on the epoxy he applied to our front verandah area. His workmanship is impeccable & professionalism & communication outstanding. We would highly recommend Epoxy Flooring Co.
Tom and his team were fantastic! He was great to work with from start to finish — super professional, friendly, and communicative. They were quick and efficient, and my garage turned out amazing. Highly recommended.
My experience started with a chat wirh Terri,who gave me a run down on all the different products, to Franny who installed the Epoxy Flake flooring, in the double garage and front patio, we are truly happy and extremely satisfied with the whole process. What a great team you all are. Thanks Franny for your happy smiley face for the days. The pricing was great as well. Judy ans Peter Keenan
Thanks to EFC for completing our garage floor straight after moving into our new home! Floor looks amazing , great service , communication and professionalism from start to finish 🙏🏼
Tom and Matteo from Epoxy Flooring Company turned up at 7am as specified to start work coating my floor with epoxy flakes. Mine was an under house garage in an older home and the concrete quality was not great. Tom explained everything about what he was going to do and ending up spending an extra couple of hours blending in some cracks so they wouldn’t appear in the final finish. The final result was exceptional and we are so pleased with the outcome. I would highly recommend the team to everyone.
What an amazing job !! Very professional can’t wait for the pool area to be done next .
Amazed at the quality if the workmanship on display. Totally professional, perfect job!!
Franny did a great job on our shed floor. Should have done it years ago!
I am so pleased with the work that these guys have done today putting down the epoxy in our factory in Sth Tweed heads . They arrived exactly on time , smartly dressed and in 2 company late model vans and started working immediately in a well organized team with new well maintained floor grinders and appropriately dressed safety gear, so well mannered, it was a pleasure to meet them. The team behind organised everything to a tee , I cannot praise Terry enough whom you feel comfortable communicating with during the whole process 10/10 the whole team well done and thank you
Excellent communication and really polite tradesmen. The team worked efficiently and got the job done without any hassle. I’m very happy with the final result and would gladly recommend this company
I’m very happy with the results. It looks amazing and the finish is fantastic. Thank you ☺️ Before and after photos.
The Epoxy Flooring crew that came and did our garage epoxy were excellent. They communicated an arrival time, they were dressed neat and their van was super clean and tidy. They were organised, answered our questions and just got on with the job. And what a job they did. It looks fantastic. They let me know when they were done, explained why they left the garage door open and when we could walk and use the space again. I will definitely use them again and cannot recommend them highly enough.

Alex, Matt and Fran did an amazing job with epoxying our garage floor! I couldn't be happier! They were on time, professional and did a stellar job! Highly recommend them!
Excellent job completed as per quote. Actual measurements were less than I calculated by a large amount and they only charged for work done rather than stick to quote. Definitely recommend.
Rang Sean requesting a quote and he was very helpful explaining the product. Franny called for an onsite visit to finalise the quote. Installation was completed in a day and they did a great job - looks fantastic - well done guys - would highly recommend
These guys are the real deal! We had the floors done in our new shed / teenage retreat and I thought they’d look good but am genuinely blown away by how great they look, comfortable under foot and easy to clean. Tim and team were brilliant to deal with, very easy to communicate with and with Christmas leave pending managed to be flexible with us to get it done! Couldn’t recommend them more!
We couldn’t be happier with our epoxy floor. From the initial quote through to the final result, the whole process was professional, efficient and well organised. They took great care in preparing the surface properly which really shows in the finished product. The epoxy finish looks fantastic and has completely transformed our garage. The workmanship is top-quality, and the attention to detail was impressive. The area was left clean and tidy, and the job was completed within the promised timeframe. If you’re looking for a reliable, skilled epoxy flooring installer who delivers excellent results, I would highly recommend Epoxy Flooring Co.
Love the new garage floor. Very professional throughout and very happy with the end product.
Communication was very good , final product was fantastic. Thrilled with the colour, and James and Peng were thorough, and made sure everything was perfect.
