Applications

Where it
can live

Every application needs project-specific assessment of substrate and exposure. Microcement is not inherently waterproof and does not replace compliant waterproofing, falls, drainage, movement detailing or skilled application.

P-01 Applications

Caution: protection depends on exposure

Decor Finish without a slip-resistance additive is only for walls and dry interior floors. Additive ratings and use are UNCONFIRMED. Bathrooms, showers and exteriors are not automatically approved.

Floors, design inspiration
01

Floors

Continuous floors across rooms on correctly prepared substrates. Movement, cracks in the slab and traffic loads decide what is possible.

What we assess

  • Slab condition, moisture and existing cracks
  • Control and expansion joints that must be honoured
  • Traffic, grit and protective finish

02

Bathrooms and wet areas

Seamless shower and wet-area surrounds. Microcement is not inherently waterproof by itself, so the waterproofing system beneath it is the first decision.

What we assess

  • Compliant waterproofing under the finish
  • Falls and drainage resolved before application
  • Movement joints at changes of plane

03

Benchtops and joinery

Seamless benchtops and joinery faces, sealed for daily use with a protective finish matched to the exposure.

What we assess

  • Stability and flatness of the substrate
  • Heat, water and chemical exposure
  • Edge and junction detailing

04

Feature walls

Hand-worked depth for walls and ceilings: Cemento 3D, MicroCem with Etna or Terra additives, ArchiMetal, lime finishes and Marblex Mirror.

What we assess

  • Wall flatness and surface preparation
  • Raking light and the texture you want
  • Physical sample on site before committing

05

Pools

Pool surfaces demand structural, waterproofing and water-chemistry assessment. Talk to us at design stage, not after construction.

What we assess

  • Pool shell and structural movement
  • Waterproofing and water-chemistry exposure
  • Skilled application by an experienced applicator

06

Commercial and hospitality

Retail, restaurant and hotel interiors where finish performance, programme and detailing matter as much as the look.

What we assess

  • Wear, cleaning regime and exposure
  • Programme and staging
  • Specification support for the design team
