Coverage Calculator
Tell us your project size and system. We convert the area, name the system that fits, and our team returns a verified material schedule built for your substrate and build-up.
Exact coverage depends on substrate profile, applied thickness and system build-up — confirmed Per TDS for your project. Planning the application day as well? The dew point calculator tells you whether site conditions allow coating today.
Choose your build-up to see the layer-by-layer material schedule.
What Decides How Much Material You Need?
Floor coating coverage is never a single fixed number. Four project realities decide the true material quantity — which is why POLYZEN builds a verified schedule for every site instead of a generic estimate.
01. Substrate Profile
A mechanically prepared, ground or shot-blasted concrete surface absorbs and consumes material differently from a smooth slab. Surface porosity directly changes consumption.
02. System Thickness
A thin high-build coating and a multi-millimetre self-leveling or screed system carry very different material loads per square metre across the same floor area.
03. System Build-Up
Primer, body coat, broadcast aggregate and seal coat each add to the schedule. The full layer stack — not one product — defines total quantity.
04. Wastage & Detailing
Coving, edges, joints, ramps and site wastage are factored into a real material schedule so the floor is never under-ordered mid-application.
You know how much material the floor needs. Four more questions and you will know what the finished job costs, GST included.

It converts your project area and the system build into the material quantity the floor will need, so you can sanity-check a quantity before you commit to it.
It is a planning figure, not a purchase order. Real consumption changes with substrate porosity, surface profile after preparation, application method and wastage on site, and the governing figures for any system are per the product TDS.
Almost always the substrate. A porous, freshly ground or repaired slab drinks more primer and more of the first coat than a dense one, and profile depth after shot-blasting changes the number again.
No. For an indicative budget figure, CostMyFloor asks four questions and works it out from current material rates.
No. Use it to plan and to question a quantity that looks wrong. What is actually ordered for a project comes from the survey and the specification.
