What Is Microcement?
Seamless, Waterproof Decorative Coating
At GreenCork Ltd, we install microcement as a decorative waterproof coating applied in thin layers of approximately 2 to 3 mm. It creates a seamless, joint-free surface that can be used across walls, floors and ceilings, both indoors and outdoors.
Unlike traditional tiling or screeding, microcement can usually be applied directly over existing surfaces including tiles, concrete, plaster, plasterboard, wood, MDF and painted finishes. This makes it a practical and low-disruption renovation solution for homes and commercial properties across Leeds, West Yorkshire and throughout the UK.
Its specialist formulation combines cements, selected minerals, acrylic resins and colouring agents to create a durable, flexible and waterproof surface when installed and sealed correctly. The finished appearance resembles polished concrete, with a clean contemporary finish and no grout lines or visible joints.

What surfaces can microcement be applied to?
Microcement can be applied over plasterboard, plaster, cement, concrete, tiles, porcelain, marble, granite, wood and painted surfaces when prepared correctly.
Can microcement be applied over existing tiles?
Yes, microcement can be applied over existing tiles without removing the original tiles first, provided the surface is stable, properly bonded, and correctly prepared. Learn when tiled walls are suitable for microcement, how the preparation process works, and which issues may require tile removal before installation begins
Does microcement crack?
Correctly installed microcement is designed to resist cracking. Most cracks occur due to movement or instability within the substrate beneath the coating.
Can microcement be used with underfloor heating?
Yes. Microcement works well with underfloor heating systems because of its thin application thickness, which allows efficient heat transfer across the surface.
How thick is microcement?
Most microcement systems are applied at a total thickness of approximately 2 to 3 mm, making them ideal for renovation projects where floor height is limited.
How do you clean and maintain microcement?
Microcement should be cleaned using neutral detergents and soft cleaning materials. Avoid abrasive products, strong chemicals and standing water where possible.
