Surfaces

The same texture can run from the floor up the wall, into the shower and onto the stair treads. The interior then reads as one volume rather than a collection of materials.

  1. 01

    Microcement floors

    A seamless floor in the living room, kitchen and hall that makes a space look larger. The thin layer conducts heat well, so it suits underfloor heating.

    • Can go over old tiles if they are firmly bonded
    • Barely raises the floor level
    • Sealed with a lacquer for everyday use

    Microcement bathrooms

    A walk-in shower, walls and floor in one surface. We lay waterproofing underneath and a sealer on top that closes the structure.

    • No grout, so no stained or mouldy joints
    • Waterproofing in the wet area
    • Non-slip finish for the shower on request

    Microcement stairs

    Treads, risers and skirtings in one colour, on concrete stairs and, after proper preparation, on timber ones. The staircase becomes part of the design instead of an obstacle.

    • Reinforced step edges
    • Finish chosen for the level of traffic
    • A texture that matches the floor upstairs

    Microcement walls

    A continuous texture behind the TV, in the kitchen behind the worktop, in the bedroom or across the whole living room. The look of raw concrete without its weight and chill.

    • Textures from smooth to clearly clouded
    • Adds very little load to the structure
    • Easy to wipe and to refresh

What the system consists of

  1. 1

    Substrate preparation

    We clean, repair defects and apply a primer that ensures adhesion.

  2. 2

    First layer

    We apply the first layer of microcement and sand it once dry.

  3. 3

    Second layer

    The second layer sets the final texture and colour.

  4. 4

    Protection

    A polyurethane or epoxy lacquer closes the surface and determines water resistance.

Colours and textures

The palette runs from light whites and greys to graphites and warm beiges. Before doing the whole surface we show colour and texture on a sample, so there are no surprises.

Palette

Eight shades to start the conversation

Microcement is tinted through its mass, so colour is not paint on top but part of the material. We start from a few calm shades and tune them to the light, wood and stone in your interior.

  • ChalkMK 01
  • LinenMK 02
  • SandMK 03
  • ClayMK 04
  • AshMK 05
  • StoneMK 06
  • GraphiteMK 07
  • SlateMK 08

Colours on screen are approximate. The final shade and texture are agreed on a sample made in your interior.

Microcement questions

Does microcement crack?

Not on a properly prepared, stable substrate. Cracks in the substrate can show through the coating, which is why we inspect and repair it before we start.

Is microcement slippery?

We can choose a finish with more grip, for example for showers. Smooth finishes are kept for walls and dry areas.

How do I clean it?

With a soft mop and a mild, neutral cleaner. Avoid aggressive chemicals and hard brushes. You get care instructions at handover.

What warranty do you give?

Two years on workmanship, provided use and care follow the instructions.
