The difference

The only microcement installer in the North West
backed by a 15-year written warranty.

Most microcement installers write two years. We put fifteen in writing, on paper, at handover — because the Cementec system we use and the way we build it underneath earns it.

What it is

Two millimetres thick. Nothing left to grout.

Microcement is a polymer-modified mineral coating trowelled by hand in five to seven layers over your existing floors, walls, baths and worktops — then sealed three times.

No rip-out, no skips

It bonds straight onto tile, screed, concrete, plywood and plasterboard. Your floor levels and door heights stay exactly where they are.

Genuinely seamless

One continuous surface from the shower tray up the walls and out across the landing. Nothing to grout, nothing to go black in the corners.

Warm and quiet underfoot

At 2–3 mm it is the ideal covering for underfloor heating — faster to warm through than 12 mm porcelain, and softer to stand on.

Fully waterproof, not just water-resistant

Sealed with Cementec Finish Forte Plus, a 100% waterproof polyurethane. No separate membrane, no hidden layer to fail — the finished surface is the waterproofing.

Finishes

Twenty-one Cementec colours. Any RAL to order.

Each one is trowelled by hand, so no two square metres are identical — that cloud and movement is the point of the material.

Tap a swatch to see the trowel pattern. Send us a few photos of the room and we’ll tell you which of these actually work in the light you have.

Process

Six stages. Five to seven layers. One week.

Microcement is almost entirely labour. Here is exactly what happens in your house, and when.

  1. Day 0

    Free survey — at your place or from your phone

    Most people never need us to visit twice. Send photos and a slow video walk-through of the room on WhatsApp and we can price the job from that, usually the same day. Prefer us there in person? Forty-five minutes at your property: we check the substrate with a moisture meter, measure up properly and talk colour in your own light. Both are free, and neither commits you to anything.

  2. Day 1

    Protect, prep & repair

    Everything sheeted and taped. Loose tiles re-bedded, cracks resin-filled, levels corrected. Falls checked and adjusted in shower zones so water goes where it should.

  3. Day 1–2

    Primer & fibreglass mesh

    A substrate-specific primer, then a fibreglass mesh bedded into the first base coat across every joint and change of plane. This is what stops hairline cracking later.

  4. Day 2–3

    Two base coats

    Built up and sanded flat between coats to create a true, dead-level surface for the finish to sit on.

  5. Day 4–5

    Two finish coats, trowelled by hand

    The layers you actually see. Applied wet-on-wet in one continuous pass per area so the cloud pattern runs unbroken from wall to floor.

  6. Day 5–6

    Three seal coats & handover

    Two coats of primer-sealer, one of two-part polyurethane. We hand over an aftercare kit, the exact pH-neutral cleaner to use, and your written 15-year warranty. Every product that goes into your floor is listed in the materials guide.

Price guide

What microcement actually costs in Lancashire.

Most installers hide this. These are our 2026 supply-and-fit rates, using Cementec systems throughout. Labour is roughly two thirds of the figure — five to seven hand-applied layers over four to seven days.

Supply & fit · excluding VAT · Preston & Lancashire, 2026
SurfaceWhat it coversPer m²
Microcement floorsPrep, primer, mesh, base + finish coats, 3× seal£130–£170 / m²
Walls & feature surfacesFeature walls, hallways, stair returns, reveals£170–£210 / m²
Small bathroomEn-suite, cloakroom or shower room — walls, floor, waterproof sealfrom £3,500
Medium bathroomStandard family bathroom — walls, floor, bath surround, sealfrom £3,500
Large bathroom or wet roomLarge room or full wet room — walk-in shower detailing throughoutfrom £5,500
Kitchen worktops & splashbacksEdges, upstands, cut-outs, food-safe seal£250–£320 / m²
Commercial & exteriorSlip-rated systems, out-of-hours working, UV seal£160–£200 / m²

Minimum project value £3,500 +VAT. Small rooms cost more per m² than large ones — the same six days of labour, the same mobilisation, spread over fewer metres. A 4 m² cloakroom and a 10 m² bathroom are closer in price than you would expect, which is why bathrooms are priced as a room rather than by the metre.

Every quote is fixed in writing after the survey. No day rates, no “extras discovered on site”.

“Highly impressed with the microcement work done in my kitchen and bathroom. The team was professional, punctual, and very tidy throughout the process. The finish is durable, easy to clean, and feels great underfoot. It's a game-changer for anyone wanting to avoid the hassle of tiles. Five stars for both the material and the execution!”

“Didn't expect to love this bathroom this much, honestly. The microcement just gives it that clean, continuous look without trying too hard. No busy details, no distractions — just a really calm, well-put-together space. It somehow feels modern and cozy at the same time, which isn't easy to pull off. It's one of those places where you walk in and instantly feel more relaxed. Simple, but done right.”

Questions

The things people ask before they book.

Something not covered? Call 07526 150 535.

Does microcement crack?
Properly installed, no. Cracking comes from movement in the substrate below, which is why we bed a fibreglass mesh into the base coats across every joint, corner and change of plane, and why we resin-fill existing cracks first. Skipping the mesh is the single most common reason cheap microcement fails.
Do you have to visit before you can quote?
No. Send us photos of the room and a slow video walk-through on WhatsApp — corners, the shower zone, anywhere the floor changes level — and we can price the job from that, usually the same day. It is how most of our quotes start now. If we need to see something in person before committing to a fixed price, we will say so and come out free of charge.
Can it go over my existing tiles?
Yes — that is one of the main reasons people choose it. As long as the tiles are firmly bonded, we key and prime them and work straight over the top. We only lift tiles when they are drummy or the levels are badly out.
Is it fully waterproof in a shower?
Yes — fully waterproof, not merely water-resistant. Showers and wet rooms are sealed with Cementec Finish Forte Plus, a two-part polyurethane the manufacturer rates as 100% waterproof and chemical resistant. There is no separate membrane buried underneath that can fail out of sight: the surface you can see and clean is the surface doing the waterproofing, and that is what the 15-year warranty is written against.
How long will my house be out of action?
Four to seven days on site for a typical bathroom or open-plan floor. You can walk on it lightly 24 hours after the final seal, put furniture back after 72 hours, and it reaches full chemical cure at around seven days.
How much does it cost?
Floors run £130–£170 per m² +VAT. Bathrooms and wet rooms are priced as a room rather than by the metre, from £3,500 for a compact or medium bathroom and from £5,500 for a large wet room. Worktops are £250–£320 per m². Minimum project value is £3,500 +VAT. The calculator above gives you a real range in thirty seconds.
Does it work with underfloor heating?
Very well. At 2–3 mm it has far less thermal mass than tile or stone, so the floor warms up faster and costs less to run. We add a decoupling layer and commission the heating with a slow ramp-up schedule before coating.
How do I clean and maintain it?
A pH-neutral cleaner and a damp mop. No bleach, no acids, no steam mops. We hand over a starter kit at completion. On floors we recommend a fresh top seal every five to seven years — a one-day job, no disruption.
What does the 15-year warranty cover?
Delamination, cracking that originates in our build-up, and failure of the seal under normal domestic use — the things that are ours to get right. It is written, signed and handed over on completion. Fifteen years is longer than anyone else in the North West offers; we can do it because of how the substrate is prepared and meshed before a drop of microcement goes down. Accidental damage, abrasive cleaners and building movement outside the finished surface are excluded, and the exclusions are on the same sheet — nothing buried in small print.
Do you cover my area?
We are based in Preston and survey free of charge across the PR, FY, BB, LA, L and WN postcodes — Chorley, Leyland, Lytham, Blackpool, Garstang, Lancaster, the Ribble Valley, Blackburn, Ormskirk and Wigan included.
