What Is Microcement?
Also known as micro-concrete or micro-topping, microcement is a versatile and innovative building material used as an interior and exterior surface overlay for floors, walls, furniture and beyond. The blend of fine-grain cement, polymers, aggregates, and other additives creates a thin, durable, and decorative coating that resembles concrete — but with greater possibilities. Microcement is renowned for its ability to transform various surfaces into seamless and visually appealing elements, without the need for demolition. Looking a durable, textured render for your Adelaide project? Microcement is perfect.
Key characteristics of microcement include:
-
Microcement is applied in thin layers, typically ranging from 1 to 3mm. This allows it to be installed over existing surfaces without significantly altering the overall dimensions of the space.
-
One of the standout features of microcement is its ability to create a seamless finish. It creates a uniform surface without visible joints, seams, or grout lines.
-
Microcement comes in a variety of colours, allowing for customisation to suit different design styles and preferences. It can also be manipulated to achieve different textures, from smooth and polished to slightly textured.
-
Despite its thin nature, microcement is remarkably durable and resistant to wear and tear. It can withstand foot traffic (some even withstand vehicle traffic), making it suitable for both residential and commercial spaces. When prepared and installed correctly is less prone to cracking compared to traditional cement-based materials.
-
Microcement can adhere to a range of surfaces, including concrete, wood, tiles, sheeting and even some plastics. This adaptability makes it a versatile option for renovation projects allowing you to remodel without removal.
-
With the addition of appropriate membranes, sealers and coatings, microcement can be made water-resistant, making it suitable for use in wet areas like bathrooms and kitchens.
-
Ease of Maintenance: The seamless surface of microcement is relatively easy to clean and maintain. Regular cleaning and occasional resealing can help keep its appearance intact over time.

Why use Microcement in your project? High-traffic flooring, seamless bathrooms and more durable yet decorative applications.
There are many reasons why microcement has become a popular alternative to traditional flooring and wall finishes like timer, tiles, and concrete. It achieves the perfect balance of aesthetics and functionality, favoured by local architects, interior designers, and homeowners. The versatility and durability of microcement makes it a popular choice for both residential and commercial projects, as it can be creatively integrated into various Australian design styles.
Some reasons why you would choose microcement in your project:
You’re renovating a space and you are looking for a product that can be applied directly on-top of your existing surface, eliminating the need for removal and costs involved with demolition.
You would like to achieve a concrete-looking finish, but on light-weight construction.
You don’t like the colour or finish of your concrete slab that has just been poured, and would like to install a concrete overlay to achieve your desired finish.
You don’t want to clean grout lines in your bathroom!
You’re looking for a seamless, modern surface that can flow from internal to external, and from walls to floors.
You’re looking for an alternative to traditional flooring (such as tiles and floorboards)
