Epoxy Garage Floors
in Knox
Across Knox and the Dandenong Ranges foothills, Metal and Flake installs epoxy garage floors built to last. Tough enough for daily use, clean enough to impress, guaranteed for 7 years.
Serving Knox and Surrounds
Knox covers Boronia, Ferntree Gully, Wantirna, Rowville and the surrounding streets, sitting in the foothills of the Dandenongs. Housing is predominantly 1970s through 1990s brick veneer on blocks that frequently slope, with single and double garages either integrated under the house or standing detached at the end of a driveway that climbs or falls away from the street.
The foothills location brings more moisture than the flat suburbs further west. Higher rainfall, more tree cover, more shade and slower drying mean garage slabs here stay damp longer after rain, and undercroft garages cut into a slope carry soil moisture against a wall as well. Add fifty years of leaf litter and organic staining and you get slabs that need more preparation than their age alone suggests.
What that means for your Knox garage floor
Damp is the thing to get right in Knox. We moisture test rather than assume, particularly on undercroft and shaded garages, and we match the system to the reading we get. Organic staining and embedded leaf tannin grind out cleanly enough, but they need to be taken back properly rather than sealed under a base coat where they will keep showing through.
- Undercroft and shaded garages moisture tested independently
- Organic and tannin staining ground out, not sealed under
- Sloping driveway and threshold detailing handled properly
- Systems matched to the higher ambient moisture in the foothills
My Knox garage always feels damp. Can it still be coated?
Very likely, but the system has to be chosen for it rather than in spite of it. The foothills get more rain, more shade and slower drying than the flat suburbs, and undercroft garages have soil sitting against a wall as well as underneath. All of that raises the moisture the slab carries. We test before quoting, and if the reading is high there are systems that tolerate it. What does not work is applying a standard system and hoping.
We also regularly install across Boronia, Ferntree Gully, Wantirna, and Rowville.
Two Finishes. One Standard.
Every Metal and Flake installation uses the same preparation process and the same 7-year guarantee. The difference is in the finish you choose.

From bare concrete to finished floor in 4 steps.
We measure your floor, assess the concrete, and give you a fixed written quote with no hidden costs.
Diamond grinding opens the concrete surface for maximum adhesion. Cracks and spalling are repaired before any coating is applied.
Primer, base coat, your chosen finish, and a polyaspartic topcoat are applied in the correct sequence and allowed to cure fully.
We walk you through the finished floor, hand over your written 7-year guarantee, and leave the site clean.
Results that speak for themselves.
The floor looks incredible. They prepped it properly, the finish is perfect, and it was done in a day and a half. Could not be happier.
I had three quotes and Metal and Flake were the only ones who talked about surface prep in detail. That made the decision easy. The result is exceptional.
