Priced the way Epoxy Flooring work is billed
A garage floor epoxy and a concrete grind & prep don't get quoted the same way, so why would every trade? SideWRK prices Epoxy Flooring the way the work is really billed: per square foot — about $6 a square foot. Tap the work, put in the numbers, and the line prices itself — no napkin math, no undercharging a job because you rushed the quote.
What Epoxy Flooring jobs actually run
These are the starting numbers SideWRK loads for common Epoxy Flooring work — researched to be realistic, so you can send an estimate that isn't a guess. Adjust any of them to your market in a tap.
Typical starting prices in the app — your area, your materials, and your reputation move them. You set your own; these just keep you from undercharging on the first quote.
Basement / shop floor coating, priced out
Numbers only mean something on a real job, so here's how SideWRK builds the ticket on a common one:
SideWRK puts the parts on at what you actually paid — so the $1,800 of labor is what you clear, not a marked-up parts total dressed up as profit.
What moves a Epoxy Flooring price
Two Epoxy Flooring jobs that look the same on paper can be a hundred dollars apart once you're on site. Here's what actually changes the number — the things to size up before you quote:
- Slab condition — grinding and patching a cracked, oil-stained garage is most of the job before a drop of coating goes down.
- System — a one-day flake floor and a full polyaspartic build are different products at different prices.
- Moisture — a slab that tests wet needs a vapor barrier or the coating peels, and that's a real added step.
What a Epoxy Flooring job puts on the record
Every trade documents something different, and Epoxy Flooring is no exception. SideWRK captures the floor area — 1, 2, or 3-car and the rest of what your work needs on the record — the details that protect you and make the invoice stand up:
- the floor area — 1, 2, or 3-car
- the concrete condition — oil-stained, needs grinding
- the coating type — epoxy, polyaspartic, polyurea, flake
- the cure and keep-off window plus a moisture/adhesion note
Example note on a job: "Diamond-ground and patched pits before the coat; flake broadcast to full refusal — advised 24 hr before foot traffic, 72 hr before vehicles."

Epoxy Flooring pricing — common questions

You bill per square foot — about $6 a square foot. Add the work — Garage floor epoxy, Polyaspartic 1-day coating, Flake / chip system — enter the numbers, and each line prices itself. Parts go on at your cost, so you see real profit and not just the total.
What does a typical Epoxy Flooring job cost?

Common Epoxy Flooring work ranges from about $320 to $3,000. Those are defaults you can change — you always set your own prices.
What does SideWRK document on a Epoxy Flooring job?
The records Epoxy Flooring work actually needs: the floor area — 1, 2, or 3-car; the concrete condition — oil-stained, needs grinding; the coating type — epoxy, polyaspartic, polyurea, flake. They stay on the job as you work, so the paper trail is built instead of reconstructed later, and the disclosures this trade needs print on the estimate and invoice themselves.

That depends on your state and the job, but here's the shape of it: manufacturer SDS handling and local disposal — keep product out of drains; a contractor license is optional in most states.
