What is microcement?
Microcement is a thin, polymer-modified cement coating. Applied by hand in layers that are usually only 2 to 3mm thick, it creates a surface that is much stronger than its thickness suggests.
Is micro cement expensive?
Microcement is a premium product. The cost reflects the intense labour and skill required for a hand-trowelled application. While the initial investment is higher than basic tiling, it often saves money on renovations because it can be applied over existing tiles.
Is microcement cheaper than tiles?
When you factor in the total project cost, microcement is highly competitive. Without the need for tile removal or re-waterproofing the entire substrate, it often becomes the more efficient choice for savvy builders.
Will microcement crack?
When applied by professional microcement installers such as Adora Designs, the risk is exceptionally low. Professional-grade materials are engineered with polymers that give them flexibility, allowing the surface to move slightly with your building’s natural settlement.
