Solid Colour Epoxy Flooring in Vancouver: What It Is and What It Costs

Solid colour epoxy flooring (sometimes called solid color epoxy or single-colour epoxy) is a joint-free floor coating applied in a single pigmented layer over a diamond-ground concrete slab. It costs $5 to $10 per square foot for a complete installation: primer, pigmented epoxy base coat, and a clear polyaspartic topcoat. A standard two-car Vancouver garage (400 to 500 sq ft) typically runs $2,000 to $4,000 installed.

Solid colour is the cleanest, most minimal epoxy finish available. There are no chips, no flakes, no texture variation, just a continuous, glossy or satin surface in the selected colour. Light and mid-tone greys are the most popular choices in Vancouver residential and commercial settings, followed by charcoal, white, and blues for commercial spaces. The finish reads as high-end and intentional rather than decorative.

The tradeoff is visibility. Solid colour shows dust, debris, and scuff marks more readily than flake or metallic systems, so it is better suited to spaces that are regularly swept or professionally maintained. It excels in showrooms, auto dealerships, medical and dental offices, retail floors, and residential spaces where a polished, photo-ready appearance is the priority. All Vancouver installations include ASTM moisture testing and comply with WorkSafeBC standards.

Floors under roughly 350 sq ft are quoted as a flat project price rather than by the square foot, since setup, mobilization and prep equipment don't scale down with the job. Final cost depends on the condition and prep of your slab; GST (5%) additional. See our full 2026 cost guide for all systems.

How We Install Solid Colour Epoxy Flooring in Vancouver

Every installation follows this sequence. Surface preparation and moisture testing are never skipped regardless of system type.

01
Site Assessment
On-site visit to evaluate the slab, check for prior coatings, map cracks and drainage grade.
02
ASTM Moisture Testing
F1869 calcium chloride or F2170 RH probe test on every slab. Non-negotiable before any coating.
03
Diamond Grinding
Planetary grinder opens the concrete surface to CSP 2 to 3, the profile required for mechanical adhesion.
04
Crack & Joint Repair
Polyurea crack fill and joint treatment on all visible cracks, spalls, and control joints.
05
Primer Coat
Low-viscosity epoxy primer saturated into the prepared concrete. Moisture-mitigating primer applied where MVER is high.
06
Base Coat
Primary epoxy or polyaspartic layer applied at specified mil thickness. Flake or colour chip broadcast where selected.
07
Topcoat Seal
Aliphatic polyaspartic or urethane topcoat for UV stability, abrasion resistance, and the specified finish level.
08
Walkthrough and Warranty
We walk the finished floor with you and hand over the written warranty. Return-to-service timing for your system is confirmed in your quote.

Self-Levelling Epoxy Floor Coatings

A self-levelling epoxy floor is a solid colour epoxy poured thicker than a rolled coat, so it flows out under its own weight into a smooth, flat, high-gloss surface.

A standard solid colour floor is rolled on in thin coats that follow the texture of the concrete underneath. A self-levelling epoxy is poured at a much heavier build, typically several times the thickness of a rolled coat, then spread with a gauge rake and back-rolled with a spiked roller to release trapped air. As it cures it settles into one continuous surface that hides the fine texture and small hollows of the slab. It is the finish people picture when they think of a glossy showroom or a clean-room floor, and it is the base that metallic floors are built on.

Self-levelling epoxy is a finish, not a floor leveller. It smooths out the surface of a sound slab, but it will not correct a slab that slopes or bring a low corner up to level, and a thick pour over a sloped floor simply runs downhill. Minor hollows are filled as part of the coating build. A slab with real dips needs levelling before it is coated, and cementitious floor levelling is not a service we offer.

Self-levelling systems suit kitchens, showrooms, offices, basements finished as living space and clean workshops where a smooth, easy-to-mop surface matters more than texture. In a garage that sees wet tires, a textured flake floor is usually the safer choice, because a thick gloss surface is slippery when wet unless an anti-slip additive goes into the topcoat. Self-levelling solid colour falls within the $5 to $10 per square foot solid colour range, toward the upper end because of the extra material. See residential epoxy flooring for rooms inside the home and concrete grinding for how the slab is prepared.

Solid Colour Epoxy Warranty

Every floor we install is backed by a full written warranty, provided with your quote, covering adhesion failure, delamination, peeling, yellowing or ambering, and hot-tire pickup. We install professional-grade, low-VOC systems from top North American manufacturers.

Warranty length depends on the system installed; our tiered flake systems, for example, carry 5 to 20 years of coverage. We confirm the terms for your floor in the written quote. See how the 1-Day and 2-Day systems compare.

Solid Colour Epoxy Flooring FAQ

Answers to the questions we hear on every solid colour epoxy flooring quote call in Vancouver.

Solid colour epoxy is a joint-free, single-colour epoxy system with no decorative chips or flakes. It consists of a pigmented epoxy base coat applied over a diamond-ground slab and sealed with a clear polyaspartic topcoat. The result is a uniform, glossy or satin surface in the selected colour, and the cleanest and most minimal epoxy finish available.
Solid colour epoxy in Vancouver costs $5 to $10 per sq ft installed. It is typically the lowest-cost professional epoxy system, since there is no decorative flake broadcast. A two-car garage (400 to 500 sq ft) typically runs $2,000 to $4,000 complete. Commercial spaces are quoted on-site. Pricing includes diamond grinding, moisture testing, primer, base coat, and polyaspartic topcoat.
Depends on priorities. Solid colour gives a cleaner, more premium-looking finish, ideal if aesthetics and a polished look are the priority. Flake epoxy hides dust, debris, and scuffs better and provides more slip resistance. For a working garage with daily vehicle use, flake is generally the more practical choice. For a showroom garage or display space, solid colour is the better fit.
We offer a standard colour range covering greys, whites, blues, greens, earth tones, and safety colours; see the samples on this page. Light grey, medium grey, and charcoal are the most popular residential choices in Vancouver. Ask about specific colours on your free on-site assessment.
More than flake or metallic, yes. A smooth solid surface reveals dust, footprints, and light scuffs more readily. In spaces that are swept daily or professionally maintained (commercial offices, showrooms, medical facilities) this is manageable. In a busy residential garage that accumulates grit and wet tire tracks, flake is more forgiving between cleanings.
Every floor is backed by a full written warranty provided with your quote, covering adhesion failure, delamination, peeling, yellowing or ambering, and hot-tire pickup. Warranty length depends on the system installed (our tiered flake systems, for example, carry 5 to 20 years of coverage), and the terms for your floor are confirmed in the written quote.
Solid colour epoxy comes in a standard range of greys, neutrals, blues and safety colours, shown in the colour chart on this page. Greys are the most popular for Vancouver garages because they hide tire marks and dust. We work from the standard range rather than custom colour matching, which keeps the system consistent and inside the warranty.
A self-levelling epoxy floor is solid colour epoxy poured at a heavy build so it flows out under its own weight into a smooth, flat, high-gloss surface. It hides fine texture and small hollows in the slab. It is a finish rather than a leveller: it will not correct a slab that slopes.
Only small imperfections. It smooths the surface of a sound slab, but it cannot bring a sloped floor back to level, and a thick pour on a slope runs downhill. High spots are ground down and minor hollows filled in the coating build; a slab with real dips needs levelling first, which is not a service we offer.
