Top Advantages of Microcement Walls

1. Durability and longevity

We apply a strong cement-based system that forms a thin, yet enduring layer, robust enough for bustling London kitchens, bathrooms, corridors and attics.

2. Versatile Design Options

Select from sleek matte, subtle texture or stone-inspired finishes that complement any interior or exterior setting. Mix and match pigments to match your style without sacrificing coherence.

3. Impermeability and Water Resistance

Our microcement walls, once properly sealed, become a solid barrier against moisture. They are fitted to withstand steam, condensation, and general dampness, perfect for wet rooms or splash-back zones.

4. Cost-Effective Solution

Compared with materials like stone or high-end tiles, Eco Microcement provides competitive upfront cost and avoids knock-down labour. The result? Stunning results without breaking the project budget.

5. No Construction Required

Skip demolition. We apply microcement over existing tiles, plaster, or render, delivering a refreshed surface swiftly and cleanly, with minimal disturbance to your schedule.

6. Seamless and Smooth Finish

Enjoy continuous, grout-free walls that exude understated sophistication. This finish is easier to clean and maintains its pristine appearance without demanding effort.

7. Easy Maintenance

A soft cloth with a mild pH-neutral cleanser is enough to renew the look of your walls. No special treatments or scrubbing out grout, pure and simple upkeep.

8. Trendy Wall Covering

Microcement’s refined minimalism is widely embraced in modern London interiors, offering that urban yet timeless edge that complements both classic and contemporary décor.

Microcement Wall Finishes from Eco Microcement

  • Polished Finish: Offers a reflective, high-shade surface that brightens spaces and feels elegant under ambient lighting.

  • Textured Finish: Adds visual depth and tactility, being ideal for creating focal walls or introducing subtle movement into a minimal scheme.

  • Matte Finish: Gentle and understated, this is a soft, non-reflective surface perfect for calm bedrooms or offices.

  • Decorative Patterns: Custom patterning, from geometric motifs to organic swirls, tailor your wall into a piece of bespoke art.

Step by Step Application of Eco Microcement

  • Surface Preparation: We ensure the wall is clean, stable and dry, addressing cracks or uneven patches prior to coating.

  • Base Coat Application: The first microcement layer is smoothly trowelled to create a solid foundation.

  • Second Coat Application: Applied in opposite direction to enhance adhesion and uniformity, carefully controlled for texture and thickness.

  • Sanding: Once dry, the surface is gently sanded to remove imperfections and harmonise the finish.

  • Sealing: A high-quality sealer is applied to lock in moisture resistance and protect the microcement.

  • Finishing Varnish: We complete with a final varnish layer that brings out the finish, be it sheen or softness, and ensures longevity.
