Microcement is one of the most versatile and visually stunning finishes available for residential and commercial spaces. This ultra-thin cement overlay can transform virtually any surface into a seamless, modern masterpiece.
What Is Microcement?
Microcement (also called microconcrete or microtopping) is a polymer-modified cement coating applied in thin layers — typically just 2–3mm thick. Unlike traditional concrete, it doesn't require structural support and can be applied directly over existing surfaces including tile, wood, drywall, and concrete.
Where Can You Use It?
The beauty of microcement is its versatility. Common applications include:
- Floors — seamless, grout-free flooring for any room
- Countertops — a modern alternative to granite or quartz
- Showers and bathrooms — waterproof and easy to clean
- Walls and accent features — create dramatic focal points
- Fireplaces — transform dated brick or stone surrounds
- Furniture — custom tables, shelving, and built-ins
Durability and Maintenance
When properly sealed, microcement is waterproof, stain-resistant, and incredibly durable. It stands up well to daily wear and can last 20+ years with minimal maintenance. Regular cleaning with pH-neutral products is all that's needed.
Color and Texture Options
Microcement is available in a wide range of colors — from warm earth tones to cool grays and bold custom colors. Textures range from smooth and polished to natural and organic. We can even create multi-tone effects with gold or metallic veining.
Cost Considerations
Microcement flooring typically ranges from $16–$25 per square foot installed, making it competitive with premium tile or hardwood. For countertops, expect around $62 per square foot. Compared to natural stone, you often save 40–60%.
Why Montana Homeowners Love It
Microcement pairs perfectly with Montana's aesthetic — it complements both rustic mountain homes and modern urban spaces in Helena, Bozeman, Missoula, and beyond. Its seamless, grout-free finish is especially practical for our climate, as there are no grout lines to trap moisture or collect dirt.
