What Is Metallic Epoxy Flooring?

Metallic epoxy flooring is a premium decorative coating that combines high-performance epoxy resin with metallic pigments to create stunning, three-dimensional floor designs. As the coating cures, the metallic particles naturally swirl and move, producing unique marbled patterns, liquid metal effects, and mesmerising depth that’s impossible to replicate.
Here’s what makes metallic epoxy floors different:
- Unique appearance: No two floors are ever identical—each is a one-of-a-kind work of art
- 3D visual effects: Creates depth, movement, and light reflection similar to water or polished stone
- Exceptional durability: Withstands heavy foot traffic, impacts, and daily wear
- Easy maintenance: Non-porous surface resists stains, chemicals, and moisture
- Versatile application: Works for residential homes, retail stores, restaurants, showrooms, and garages

Your Metallic Epoxy Flooring Questions Answered
How long does metallic epoxy flooring last?
With proper installation and maintenance, metallic epoxy flooring lasts 15-20 years or more. At ShireBond, we use commercial-grade epoxy systems and high-quality metallic pigments designed for longevity. The durability depends on surface preparation quality, traffic levels, and care. Residential floors in living areas typically outlast commercial installations due to lower foot traffic. Regular cleaning and avoiding harsh chemicals will maximise your floor’s lifespan. We provide detailed maintenance guidelines with every installation to ensure your investment stays beautiful for decades.
How much does metallic epoxy flooring cost in Sutherland?
Metallic epoxy flooring in Sutherland typically ranges from $150-$250+ per square meter, depending on design complexity, colour choices, surface condition, and project size. Custom designs with multiple colours or intricate patterns cost more than simpler effects. This investment includes professional surface preparation, premium materials, skilled artistic installation, and protective topcoats. While metallic epoxy costs more than standard epoxy ($80-$120/m²), it delivers a unique aesthetic appeal that increases property value. Contact ShireBond for a free, detailed quote tailored to your specific project and design vision.
Can metallic epoxy be applied over existing floors?
Yes! Metallic epoxy can be applied over existing concrete, and in some cases, over existing epoxy or tiles—provided the surface is properly prepared. We assess your current flooring during consultation to determine compatibility. Concrete must be clean, structurally sound, and free from sealers or contaminants. Damaged or deteriorating surfaces require repair first. For tiles, we may recommend removal or specialised bonding primers. ShireBond’s thorough preparation process ensures optimal adhesion and long-lasting results, regardless of your starting surface condition.
How do I maintain metallic epoxy floors?
Metallic epoxy floors are incredibly low-maintenance. Regular sweeping or dust mopping removes dirt and debris. For deeper cleaning, use a pH-neutral cleaner with a damp mop—avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive scrubbers, or acidic cleaners that can dull the finish. Place protective pads under furniture legs and use mats in high-traffic entryways. Reapply topcoat every 3-5 years in commercial spaces or high-traffic areas to maintain shine and protection. We provide comprehensive care instructions and recommended cleaning products with every installation. Most Sutherland homeowners find maintenance easier than tile or hardwood.
What's the difference between metallic epoxy and regular epoxy flooring?
While both use epoxy resin, metallic epoxy creates artistic, three-dimensional effects that regular epoxy cannot achieve. Standard epoxy provides a solid colour finish—durable and practical for garages and warehouses. Metallic epoxy incorporates special pigments that swirl, blend, and reflect light, creating unique marble-like patterns, ocean waves, or liquid metal appearances. It’s the difference between a functional floor and a designer floor. Metallic epoxy costs more ($150-$250/m² vs $80-$120/m²) but delivers an unmatched visual impact perfect for living spaces, retail stores, and showrooms. Both offer excellent durability—the choice depends on whether you prioritise aesthetics or budget.
