About
Why we started Vantage Coatings
We saw too many epoxy floors fail. Not because the products are bad — but because the prep was rushed, the wrong system was used, or the installer was learning on someone else's slab. We started Vantage Coatings to do it the right way.
We're based in Calderwood and service the entire Illawarra and Southern Highlands. We use premium Australian-made systems from All Purpose Coatings — Australia's leading epoxy manufacturer — and we follow their installation specs to the letter. No shortcuts. No compromises.
When you choose Vantage, you get a floor built to last 15–25 years — not 2–5.
What We Do
APC-Certified Applicator
We're trained and certified directly by All Purpose Coatings — Australia's premier epoxy and polyaspartic manufacturer. That's not marketing. Here's the certificate.
What APC certification means
We've completed APC's official Epoxy Application Training Course — covering surface preparation, primer selection, broadcast technique, topcoat application, and troubleshooting.
It means we don't guess at product compatibility. We don't improvise installation specs. We follow the methodology proven over decades by the people who make the materials.
When something does go wrong — say, an unexpected moisture issue — we know how to diagnose and fix it because we've been trained for it.
Our Values
How we work
Five things you can expect from every Vantage Coatings job, every time.
No shortcuts on prep
If we can't prep your slab properly, we'll tell you. We don't coat over problems just to make a sale.
Detailed written quotes
You'll know exactly what you're paying for. Itemised systems, surface area, prep included, materials, labour, and timeline.
Premium materials only
100% solids APC epoxies and polyaspartics. No retail kits, no thinned products, no "good enough" substitutions.
Cleanup included
Your space comes back to you tidy. We dust-collect during grinding, vacuum thoroughly, and leave the site clean.
We answer the phone
Got a question after the install? Send us an email or call. We're not done when the floor's done — we stand behind our work.

Coating technology evolves. We stay current with APC training and new product systems so we can offer you the best.
