What is microcement? Microcement is a high-performance decorative coating that blends cement, polymers, and fine aggregates. Applied by hand, it creates seamless finishes that resemble stone, making it ideal for walls, floors, bathrooms, furniture, and more. Is microcement waterproof? When sealed properly, microcement becomes fully waterproof, making it suitable for areas like bathrooms, powder rooms, splashbacks, and vanities, all of which are prone to moisture damage. Can microcement be used inside a shower? Yes — with the right base system and sealers, microcement is perfect for shower walls and wet areas, offering a smooth, grout-free alternative to traditional tiles. Does microcement crack? When applied to a stable, well-prepared substrate, microcement is highly flexible and resistant to cracking. Issues typically arise from structural movement or poorly prepared surfaces, highlighting the importance of professional installation. How long does microcement last? With appropriate care and sealing, microcement can endure 10–20 years or more. This durable, high-performance finish is designed to withstand everyday use. Where can microcement be applied? Almost anywhere: interior and exterior walls, floors, bathrooms and wet areas, fireplaces, kitchens and splashbacks, benchtops, islands and vanities, as well as furniture and custom-built features. Is microcement slippery? Microcement can be finished in various textures. Smooth finishes work well for most interior walls and decorative areas, while a slightly textured finish enhances 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 steer clear of harsh chemicals. Resealing every few years in high-wear areas helps maintain both its appearance and performance. Can microcement be repaired if damaged? Yes. Small marks or wear spots can often be repaired without the need to redo the entire surface.

Microcement comes in a wide variety of colors and can be finished in smooth, textured, matte, satin, or polished effects depending on your desired style. How long does microcement installation take? A typical microcement project requires 2–5 days, depending on the area size and the number of layers needed. Floors and wet areas may take a bit longer. Is microcement expensive? Microcement is positioned in the premium range due to the skill and labor involved in applying multiple layers by hand.
