What Should a Melbourne Epoxy Flooring Project Scope Include?
If you’re looking for epoxy flooring in Melbourne, FL, you probably want two things: a floor that looks great and a crew that actually shows up and finishes. At DJ Epoxy Solutions, both come from the same person. Javier Arnaez, the owner, brings more than 30 years of construction experience to every job, and he’s on site supervising the work himself. No subcontractors, no rotating crews, no sales rep in between.
For installation options by space and finish, explore our epoxy flooring services. Use this Melbourne guide for local planning context.
We’re a family-run business led by Javier Arnaez, based at 2475 Palm Bay Rd NE Ste 115-5 in Palm Bay, a short run up US-1 or I-95 from Melbourne. That means when you call about a garage in 32935 or a lanai out near Suntree, you’re talking to a neighbor, not a call center.
How Much Does Epoxy Flooring Cost in Melbourne, FL?
Every floor is priced after we see it, because concrete condition changes the work involved. That said, we don’t believe in hiding numbers until the last minute. Here’s where our systems start:
| System | Application | Size | Starting price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Flake | 1-car garage | 250–300 sq ft | from $1,800 |
| Flake | 2-car garage | 400–500 sq ft | from $2,500 |
| Flake | 3-car garage | 580–750 sq ft | from $3,300 |
| Flake | Patio or lanai | 200–400 sq ft | from $2,000 |
| Metallic (interior only) | Any interior space | Priced per sq ft | from $9 / sq ft |
| Quartz | Any space | Priced per sq ft | from $15 / sq ft |
Flake is the system behind most of the floors we install, and it’s what those garage and patio prices refer to. If you want to see how the flake and quartz systems compare across Brevard County, we break both down in detail.
Across all systems, epoxy flooring in Melbourne generally lands between $6 and $15 per square foot. Where your project falls depends on the size of the area, how much grinding and crack repair the slab needs, and the finish you pick. The on-site estimate is free, and the number Javier gives you is the number you pay — no add-ons discovered halfway through.
How Long Does the Installation Take?
For a garage epoxy floor in Brevard County, installation time depends on the concrete condition, preparation required, selected coating system, project size and site conditions. Confirm the installation schedule for the actual floor with Javier before planning access or moving belongings.
Curing is separate from installation, and this part we never rush:
- Step 1 — Preparation: diamond grinding of the slab, crack and pit repair, and a full cleanup so the coating bonds to sound concrete instead of dust.
- Step 2 — Base coat and flake: the epoxy base goes down and the flake is broadcast into it, then scraped and vacuumed once it sets.
- Step 3 — Polyaspartic topcoat: the clear top layer that carries the abrasion, UV and chemical resistance.
After the topcoat, allow about 8 hours for foot traffic and about 72 hours before parking vehicles on it. These are general return-to-use guidelines, not a promise of full cure.
DJ Epoxy Solutions generally recommends about 8 hours before walking and about 72 hours before vehicles or heavy use after the completed installation. These are return-to-use guidelines, not a promise of full cure. The selected system, site conditions and Javier’s project-specific instructions determine the actual timing.
How Long Will an Epoxy Floor Last in Florida’s Climate?
Melbourne’s humidity, heat and salt air are hard on ordinary flooring. A properly prepared epoxy and polyaspartic system seals the concrete into one continuous surface with no grout lines or seams for moisture to work into. It resists oil, brake fluid, pool chemicals and the usual garage spills — most cleanups are a mop and warm water.
We back that with a lifetime warranty on interior installations.

Which Melbourne Neighborhoods and Nearby Areas Do We Cover?
We work throughout Melbourne — downtown near New Haven Avenue, the Eau Gallie area, the Wickham Road corridor, Suntree and Viera — covering ZIP codes 32901, 32904, 32934, 32935 and 32940. From our Palm Bay location it’s a short drive to any of them.
Beyond Melbourne proper, we serve West Melbourne, Melbourne Beach (32951), Indialantic (32903), Satellite Beach (32937), Indian Harbour Beach, Palm Bay, Malabar, Grant-Valkaria, Rockledge, Cocoa, Cocoa Beach and Merritt Island across Brevard County, plus Micco, Sebastian and Vero Beach in Indian River County. If you’re beachside and worried about the salt air, that’s exactly the environment these systems are built for.
Why Melbourne Homeowners and Businesses Choose Us
There are plenty of good options for flooring in Brevard County. What our clients tell us they value most is simple: the owner does the work and answers the phone. Javier is a builder, not a salesperson, and that shows up in the preparation — the part nobody sees and the part that decides whether a floor lasts.
We hold a 5.0 Google rating from real local clients, use only industrial-grade materials, and never hand your project to a subcontractor. We’re also members of the Greater Palm Bay Chamber of Commerce. A well-finished floor adds real property value and turns a garage, workshop or living space into somewhere you actually want to spend time.
What “Industrial-Grade” Actually Means Here
Industrial-grade isn’t a marketing word for us — it’s a purchasing decision we make on every job. The resins, pigments and sealers we install are the class of product specified for commercial and industrial floors, not the thinner retail kits sold for weekend projects. But the material is only half of it. A coating is never stronger than its bond to the slab, and that bond is decided during preparation: diamond grinding down to sound concrete, repairing cracks and pits, and removing every trace of dust before a single drop of epoxy goes down.
That’s the part nobody sees, and it’s the part that separates a floor still looking good in year five from one lifting at the edges by the second summer. Preparation should follow the needs of the assessed concrete and selected system rather than a fixed installation deadline.
Thirty Years of Construction Behind Every Quote
Javier’s background is construction, not coatings sales, and that changes the conversation before the job even starts. Where does water sit on this slab after a storm? Has it been sealed before? Is there moisture coming up near the door? A flooring-only crew often skips those questions. A builder asks them, because he’s seen what happens when they go unasked.
It also means he’ll tell you when a surface isn’t a good candidate, or when a different system suits your space better than the one you called about. We’d rather give you an honest answer at the estimate than a problem to manage later — that’s how a family business in Brevard County stays in business for the long run.
Whether it’s a residential epoxy floor for your home, a lanai or patio coating, or a commercial floor built for daily traffic, the process and the standard are the same.
