What Are Metallic Epoxy & Epoxy Flake Floors?
Metallic and flake flooring finishes are both decorative epoxy coating systems that achieve different results depending on the vision of the space. Metallic epoxy has a smooth and glossy surface that incorporates three-dimensional mixing techniques to create swirling marble like effects that looks different from every angle. Epoxy flake systems on the other hand, create more of a textured speckled appearance with vinyl chips. This finish helps improve surface grip underfoot and is a practical choice for garages, patios and commercial spaces. Our epoxy specialists will help you find the right solution for you space and will walk you through your options to ensure we can achieve the results you desire.
Why Decorative Epoxy Finishes Need an Experienced Installers
Achieving a well distributed and natural metallic epoxy finish can be hard to achieve and is one of the more skill-dependent products available. Metallic pigments need to be poured at the right time while the coating is still wet so that the pigments can be easily manipulated with use of specific tools and techniques to achieve the smooth three-dimensional effect. Untrained experience in this area can leave you with flat and uneven metallic distribution, and once a mistake is made, it can't be undone without starting over and stripping your floor to scratch. Our skilled epoxy flooring specialists are trained in this area and have hands-on experience with decretive finishes. We understand how these products behave and how to work around different drying conditions. That experience is what separates you from having polished results from disappointing finishes.
Colour and Design Options
Decorative epoxy is a fun way you're able to customise your space with an array of colour options to choose from. We carry a wide range of metallic pigments and flake blend assortments - so whether you're after something neutral or bold, we have the combination for it. For metallic colours, an assortment of pigments can be layered to create a unique shimmer effect. As for flake blends, we're able to mix a selection of colours to create a custom speckled blend to your liking. Unsure about what decorative finish suits your space? No problem, we can create a sample blend so that you can be sure about the colour and finish when we lay it.
What to Expect From the Process
Our team here at Ballina Epoxy Flooring handle each decorative flooring job with precision and care. We'll walk you through each step of our process, from your free site consultation, finishing options, samples and final design. On the day itself, once we've settled on a plan, we'll schedule a time that suits you to commence concrete preparation, repair and laying epoxy coating systems. Sufficient drying time between different coats is required, from the base coat, decorative layer, and clear top coat. Most jobs require 1-2 days to be completed with consideration of the size and scale of the floor space.
How Long Does a Decorative Epoxy Floor Last?
Metallic and flake epoxy systems can be sealed using either a durable polyurethane, or epoxy clear coat, to protect the top layer from wear and tear. In quiet residential settings, the decorative finishes can last about 15-20 years before any maintenance is required. In high-traffic areas, you can expect to resurface with a top coat every 5-10 years to keep your floors looking their best. Here at Ballina Epoxy Flooring, we make sure to use a UV-stable coat on all surfaces we coat so that it can last for years without yellowing or fading.

Spaces That Suit Decorative Epoxy Flooring
Home Living Areas & Studios
Indoor residential spaces are a great canvas for smooth, glossy metallic finishes. Home studios, entertainment spaces and open-plan living spaces work best as the metallic shine adds warmth and depth to a space with minimal ongoing maintenance.
Salons & Spas
Beauty salons and wellness spas utilise space atmosphere and aesthetics to create memorable experiences for their customers. Epoxy metallic finishes help elevate these spaces by giving a luxurious, polished appearance. The clean and smooth surface is easy to maintain and can withstand chemicals used in cleaning products.
Gyms & Fitness Studios
Gym floors require durable surfaces to handle heavy weights, machinery and foot traffic. Epoxy flake systems are an ideal choice for these spaces as they help provide slip resistant surfaces with additional grip. Our epoxy team are also happy to assist you with choosing the perfect epoxy flake mixture to give your gym that high-energy feel!
Showrooms & Retail Spaces
For open showroom and rental spaces, flooring plays a big part in the rooms overall presentation. Having a metallic or flake finish helps to support the rooms environment by tying the room together cohesively. Our epoxy business applies commercial grade decorative finishes that support business operations by optimising a rooms visual presentation while holding up against daily wear and tear.
Patios & Alfresco Areas
Concrete laid patios and alfresco extensions are a natural fit for having an epoxy flake flooring. During rainy days when floors can become slippery, the slightly textured surface from the flake finish helps to provide additional grip. Having a UV resistant top-coat also helps to slow down long-term discolouration and staining. Our epoxy systems are specifically suited for Ballina's coastal climates.
Garage Floors
flake finish is one of our popular epoxy services for garage floors. The surface texture adds additional tyre traction helping to reducing slips and skids. Dirt and tyre marks amongst the speckled floor are easily hidden between cleans, keeping your space looking polished even when there's minor marks. Epoxy flake systems are colour customisable to suited both residential and commercial garage environments.
