What is Microcement?
Microcement is a seamless surface finish, which offers a unique alternative to tiles. It is applied continuously by hand-trowel, eliminating the need for joins or grout lines.
The cement-based finish is incredibly strong, durable and waterproof. It can be applied to a wide range of substrates creating seamless floors, walls, bathrooms, wet rooms and worktops.
Is it Easy to Apply?
We have introduced 1000’s of DIYers and Trades People to microcement, who have gone on to complete successful installs, thanks to the help of our free online training. As long as you follow the steps, without rushing the drying times or going on too thick, we’re confident you’ll get a good finish. If you have a large area to microcement you might prefer in-person training or to recruit an experienced professional, both of which we can provide. Get in touch for more information.

What's Special About Our Microcement?
Cemher understand that each job comes with it’s own specific requirements, so have developed a wide range of products to meet the specific demands of each one. The main objective for a feature wall might be to create a stunning aesthetic at a low cost vs. a worktop, where stain resistance and impact resistance are paramount. And because it’s essential that bathrooms and wet rooms are watertight, the microcement in our bathroom kits is 100% waterproof, even before sealers are applied. For high traffic areas, we recommend the resin formulated, incredibly hard, 100% waterproof, MicroDur Plus. Relentless Microcement is the exclusive retailer of Cemher Microcement in the UK.

Good video - I am being told Microcement is susceptible to cracks, especially over Electric UFH is this true? If so, what can be done to prevent this?

Thanks very much! You need to run the UFH before applying microcement, if this produces any cracks in the self leveller/screed, then repair them before applying microcement, we have covered this in another video: ruclips.net/video/266N0z2YoUo/видео.html
