Microcement is one of the most modern, versatile and stylish finishes available today. Applied by hand, it creates a seamless, stone-like surface with incredible durability — perfect for clients wanting a sleek, contemporary look without the maintenance of traditional materials.
Made from a blend of high-performance cement, polymers and fine aggregates, microcement can be applied over most existing surfaces, allowing beautiful transformations without the mess or cost of full demolition.
Where Microcement Can Be Applied
Microcement is extremely adaptable, making it ideal for almost any area of the home:
Interior Walls & Feature Walls
Create a smooth, continuous finish that elevates living rooms, entryways, bedrooms and bespoke media walls.
Fireplace Surrounds
Heat-resistant and crack-resistant, microcement is perfect for modern fireplace designs and stepped-out feature fire walls.
Bathrooms & Wet Areas
Waterproof when sealed correctly — ideal for shower walls, vanities, niches and full bathroom renovations.
Floors
A beautiful alternative to polished concrete. Comfortable underfoot, durable and suited to high-traffic areas.
Kitchens
Use it for splashbacks, benchtops, island fronts or complete kitchen makeovers.
Furniture & Custom Pieces
Cabinetry, shelving, niches, built-in seating, and decorative elements can all be wrapped in microcement for a luxury finish.
Types of Microcement Finishes

Custom Pigments
Microcement can be colour-matched, giving you total control over the final tone — from warm neutrals to bold dark shades.
Why Choose Microcement?
What is microcement?
Microcement is a high-performance decorative coating made from cement, polymers and fine aggregates. It’s applied by hand to create a seamless, stone-like surface that can be used on walls, floors, bathrooms, furniture and more.
Is microcement waterproof?
Microcement becomes fully waterproof when sealed correctly. This makes it suitable for bathrooms, powder rooms, splashbacks, vanities and other moisture-prone areas.
Can microcement be used inside a shower?
Yes — when installed with the correct base system and sealers, microcement is ideal for shower walls and wet areas. It provides a smooth, grout-free alternative to tiles.
Does microcement crack?
When applied over a stable, well-prepared substrate, microcement is highly flexible and resistant to cracking. Structural movement or poorly prepared surfaces are the usual cause of any issues, which is why professional installation is crucial.
How long does microcement last?
With proper care and sealing, microcement can last 10–20 years or more. It’s a durable, high-performance finish designed to withstand daily use.
Where can microcement be applied?
Almost anywhere:
Is microcement slippery?
Microcement can be finished in different textures. Smooth finishes are suitable for most interior walls and decorative areas, while slightly textured finishes provide slip resistance for floors or wet areas.
How do you clean and maintain microcement?
Microcement is very low-maintenance. Clean it with mild products and avoid harsh chemicals. Resealing every few years in high-wear areas can help maintain its appearance and performance.
Can microcement be repaired if damaged?
Yes. Small marks or wear spots can often be repaired without redoing the entire surface. Larger repairs may require blending or recoating — something we can match seamlessly.
Is microcement heat-resistant?
Yes. Microcement performs exceptionally well around fireplaces and feature fire walls, making it a popular choice for modern architectural designs.
Can I choose the colour and finish?
Absolutely. Microcement is available in a wide range of colours and can be finished in smooth, textured, matte, satin or polished effects depending on the style you want.
How long does microcement installation take?
A typical microcement project takes 2–5 days, depending on the size of the area and the number of layers required. Floors and wet areas may take slightly longer.
Is microcement expensive?
Microcement sits in the premium range due to the skill and labour involved in applying multiple layers by hand. Clients choose it for its durability, seamless finish and modern, architectural look.
