Microcement Bathroom in Kensington
W8 · SW7 · A315 Kensington High Street · 12 minutes from Marble Arch via the A4
A microcement bathroom is a fully tanked wet-room in disguise — cementitious waterproofing membrane beneath, mineral microcement above, hospitality-grade sealer on top. No grout, no silicone, one continuous surface. Across the W8, SW7 postcode districts, Kensington projects centre on generous period townhouses in the conservation area. Architect-led specification predominates — the finish schedule is agreed at design stage, not by the homeowner. Kensington sits on the A315 Kensington High Street, 12 minutes from marble arch via the a4. From here we cover Notting Hill (0.7 mi) and Holland Park (0.5 mi) and out to South Kensington (0.6 mi) inside our standard service radius. The commercial fabric around the Kensington High Street and Museum Quarter shapes a share of the local brief. Microcement wet-rooms and bathrooms come through regularly.

Is the wet-room really waterproof?+
Yes — beneath the microcement finish sits a cementitious tanking layer with reinforcement tape at every corner and junction. This has been the EU-standard wet-room spec for 25+ years. Our Kensington wet-room installations carry a 10-year materials and workmanship warranty.
Can you re-do a small en-suite in Kensington without a full strip-out?+
Sometimes — if the existing tiles are sound and flat we can overlay a bonded backer and take the microcement over that. Where tiles are moving or cracked we recommend a full strip and re-tank. We tell you honestly at the survey.
How is grouting handled — is there any?+
None — that's the whole point of a microcement wet-room. No grout lines, no silicone joints, one continuous surface across floor and walls with a hospitality-grade sealer finish.
