Microcement, applied by hand

Microcement (sometimes written micro cement or micro-cement) is a thin, high-strength cement-based coating, applied by hand in layers of around 2 to 3 millimetres. It bonds to most sound surfaces, so walls, floors, showers, worktops and stairs can all share one continuous finish with no tiles and no grout lines.

SABI STUDIO installs microcement for homes, designers, architects and contractors from our studio in West Sussex, working across London, Sussex, Surrey, Hampshire, Kent, Dorset, Berkshire, Oxfordshire, Suffolk and the Midlands up to Birmingham.

Questions

Microcement FAQs

What is microcement?

A thin cement-based coating, applied by hand in several layers and sealed. It creates a seamless, stone-like surface on walls, floors, showers, worktops, stairs and furniture, without tiles or grout lines.

Can microcement be used in showers and wet rooms?

Yes. With the correct waterproofing and sealer, microcement is suitable for walk-in showers, wet rooms and bathroom floors. We specify the full system for wet areas on every project.

Can microcement go over existing tiles?

Often, yes. Sound, well-bonded tiles can be prepared and coated, which avoids stripping out the room. We confirm this on survey, as the substrate decides the right build-up.

Does microcement work with underfloor heating?

Yes. Microcement is thin and works well over underfloor heating once the screed or substrate has been properly cured and prepared.

How long does a microcement installation take?

A typical bathroom takes around a week, allowing for preparation, several coats, drying time between coats and sealing. We give you a clear programme before work starts.

How do I look after microcement?

Clean with warm water and a pH-neutral cleaner, and avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive pads. The sealer can be refreshed over time to keep the surface protected.

Which areas do you cover?

Our studio is in West Sussex and we work nationwide, most often across London, Sussex, Surrey, Hampshire, Kent, Dorset, Berkshire, Oxfordshire, Suffolk and the Midlands up to Birmingham.
