Why overlay

Why choose a concrete overlay?

Concrete overlays deliver the style and strength of a new polished concrete floor without removing your existing surface. A fraction of the cost of full concrete replacement, and far quicker to install.

01

Cost-effective

A fraction of the cost of full concrete replacement. Skip the demolition + sub-base + reinforcement + 28-day cure. The overlay finish reads as a brand-new floor at lower material and labour cost.

02

Fast turnaround

Overlays can be applied and finished within days, minimising disruption to your home or business. There's no heavy demolition, waste, or dust — just a sleek new finish.

03

Endlessly customisable

Choose from a wide range of colours, finishes, and textures to match your interior or exterior design. From natural concrete tones to decorative polished surfaces, the look is yours to spec.

04

Hard-wearing

Once cured, the overlay is polished and sealed to create a smooth, elegant, and durable finish that looks identical to a full-depth concrete slab.

Why CoastCrete

What is a concrete overlay?

A concrete overlay (sometimes called a polished concrete overlay or micro-topping) is a thin, high-strength cement-based coating applied over an existing surface. Once cured, it's polished and sealed to create a smooth, elegant, and hard-wearing finish that looks identical to a full-depth concrete slab. These overlays are typically just 3–10mm thick, making them the perfect option when height or budget constraints make new slabs impractical.

Where to use polished concrete overlays

Our concrete overlays in Perth are ideal for both residential and commercial applications. Living rooms and kitchens — create a sleek, modern look. Bathrooms and laundries — smooth and moisture-resistant. Retail and hospitality venues — durable, professional finish. Outdoor areas and patios — slip-resistant surface options. Offices and showrooms — premium polished presentation.

Our overlay installation process

Surface Preparation — we inspect, clean, and repair your existing surface to ensure strong adhesion. Overlay Application — a high-strength, polymer-modified cement mix is applied evenly across the floor. Polishing and Sealing — once cured, the surface is ground, polished, and sealed to your desired gloss level. Final Detailing — we apply a protective coating for long-term durability and stain resistance.

FAQs

Common questions

Can you overlay over tile?

Sometimes — if the tile is solidly bonded and level. We inspect first. If the tile is loose or hollow-sounding it has to come up.

How thick is the overlay?

Typically 3-10mm depending on the finish. Polished overlays can be thinner; stamped overlays need a bit more depth for the pattern impression.

Will it crack like the old floor?

We address the underlying cause first. If the old slab is moving, an overlay alone won't fix it — we'll explain what other work is needed.

How long until I can walk on it?

Light foot traffic 24-48 hours after pour. Full cure for furniture and heavy use, 7 days. We'll give you exact timing for your specific job.

Do you guarantee overlays?

Yes — written workmanship guarantee on every CoastCrete install.
