Microcement Bathrooms — Seamless Walls, Floors & Showers
A microcement bathroom is a wet room without the grid of grout lines. We tank the shower zone, apply a mesh-reinforced microcement build across floor, walls and up into the shower, and seal it into a continuous waterproof surface.
Where this works
- Full wet rooms & walk-in showers
- Family bathrooms
- En-suites & cloakrooms
- Bath surrounds & vanity backs
- Feature shower niches
How we install it
- 1Tanking first
Shower floor, walls to 1800 mm and around any bath edge are tanked with a flexible cementitious membrane. This is the waterproofing — the microcement finishes it, it isn't the waterproofing itself.
- 2Mesh-reinforced base coat
A base coat is skimmed with a glass-fibre mesh embedded into it. This is what stops hairline cracking as the substrate moves seasonally.
- 3Colour coats
Two fine-trowel colour coats give the finished tone and hand-trowelled variation. Colour is mixed to sample; darker tones are stunning but show every trowel move — we mock up before committing.
- 4Seal to R10+
Two coats of 2K PU sealer. Shower floors get an R11 aggregate broadcast between coats.
Common pitfalls we prevent
Frequently asked
Is microcement genuinely waterproof for a shower?+
The system is, when installed correctly. The tanking membrane behind is the waterproofing layer; the microcement + PU sealer above is a continuous, water-tolerant finish. Both are required.
Can microcement go over existing tiles?+
Yes — as long as the tiles are sound, we lightly abrade, prime and skim over them. It's often the fastest way to modernise a bathroom without ripping out.
How do you clean a microcement bathroom?+
pH-neutral cleaner and a soft cloth. No harsh limescale removers on the sealed surface — they attack the PU. A soft towel-dry after showers keeps it perfect.
