If you’re considering a polyurea coating for your concrete floors, one of the first questions you probably have is: how much does it cost?
We answer that question below, but before we get into the numbers, let’s quickly define what a polyurea coating is.
What Is A Polyurea Floor Coating?
A polyurea floor coating is a protective layer applied to concrete floors. It’s made from a two-part chemical reaction between an isocyanate (Part A) and a resin blend (Part B). When combined, these components create a fast-curing, flexible material that forms a solid, durable surface.
Polyurea is technically a technology, not a single product, which means different formulations are used for different applications.
How Much Does A Polyurea Coating Cost in 2025?
It depends on where you’re located, but in Northern Indiana, Chicagoland, and Southwest Michigan, you can expect to pay between $7 – $13 per square foot.
So, for example, a 500 square foot floor would cost between $3,500 and $6,500. That said, for a project of this size, Level 10 Coatings generally wouldn’t charge above $5,000.
Pricing varies per region in the United States, so you might see lower quotes in other places. However, $7 to $13 is usually what you’ll find where we serve due to the amount of repair concrete needs from cracks and salting pitting.
Watch out for super-low quotes. You definitely want to go with someone who knows what they’re doing and has experience.
What Factors Impact The Cost of A Polyurea Coating?
Square footage: The bigger your project, the more it’ll cost. However, the less per square foot it will be.
Condition of existing concrete: If your current concrete has damage, is oil stained, is too soft, too moist, or has damage, is cracked, has salt pitting or is brand new will determine how much repair needs to be done which is a variable of cost.
Customizations and upgrades: Not all polyurea coatings are the same. You can choose a more basic coat or opt for an upgraded coat with custom features, e.g., slip-resistance. The quality of your polyaspartic, customizations of flake colors, are all variables that determine cost
The type of polyurea: Beyond customizations and upgrades, you also have to account for the polyurea itself. Not all polyurea on the market is of equal quality or price. For example, some products are diluted or blended with fillers, which can reduce their overall performance. In some cases, a product labeled as polyurea may only contain about 50% actual polyurea.
Labor: Labor pricing varies by region, with southern regions in the USA tending to be lower in price than Northern Indiana, Chicagoland, and Southwest Michigan. Moreover, within a given region, you have a variety of skill levels. A more experienced installer with a better track record will command a higher price.
Is A Polyurea Coating Worth The Money?
Yes, it’s definitely worth the investment. The power of polyurea is that you can do things once and do them right. It offers long term value because it does not crack easily and is much more flexible than epoxy.
The benefits of polyurea include:
- Durable and long-lasting
- Resistant to UV
- Impact-resistant
- Flexible and bends with your slab
- Resistant to stains
Epoxy, which is more rigid, is more likely to wear out, requiring you to repair it and ultimately costing you more money in the long run.

We hope you found this guide helpful as you explore polyurea coating options for your concrete floors.
To recap, in 2025, professional polyurea coatings typically range from $7 – $13 per square foot in Northern Indiana, Chicagoland, and Southwest Michigan.
