What microcement actually is
Microcement is a cement-based coating applied by hand at only a few millimetres thick. Because it bonds to what is already there, concrete, screed, tile backer board, sound existing tiles; it can transform a room without the mess of digging a floor out. The result has no grout lines and no joints, which is why a modest kitchen or bathroom in a Leeds or Bradford terrace can suddenly feel considerably larger: the eye reads one continuous plane instead of a grid.
It also has no interest in staying flat and grey. Depending on the system, tone and sealer, microcement can look like polished stone, soft raw concrete, warm clay or brushed metal. That flexibility is why it appears as often on fireplaces, media walls, staircases and kitchen islands as it does on floors.
02
Microcement in wet rooms and bathrooms
A microcement wet room is one of the most requested projects we take on, and for good reason: a single seamless surface running from the floor up the walls removes the grout lines that discolour, and gives a shower a spa-like calm that tiling rarely matches. The important detail is sequence. Waterproofing and tanking are not part of our service, they are completed beforehand by others, and we then apply and seal the finish over that prepared, watertight build-up.
03
Resin flooring for harder-working spaces
Where a space needs to take real punishment, garages, utility rooms, workshops, commercial units and retail floors, poured resin is often the better answer. It cures to a tough, seamless, easy-to-clean surface with no joints for dirt to gather in. We install resin flooring using OX RESIN systems, and resin covers floors only, unlike microcement.

Homes and commercial projects across the North
Our work splits between high-end residential interiors, kitchen extensions, en-suites, hallways, staircases and feature walls, and commercial fit-outs where the client wants a considered, contemporary surface that will still look right in five years. Whether the project sits in Leeds, Harrogate, York, Sheffield, Manchester or as far as Windermere and Kendal, the process is the same: an honest appraisal of the substrate, a fixed price, a certified system and a sealed finish you can look after easily.
If you are weighing up microcement against tile, polished concrete or resin, the fastest way forward is a conversation about the room itself. Quotes are free and there is no obligation attached to one.
