The cost of microcement flooring in the UK can vary between £70 and £150 per square metre, depending on the type of microcement floors you are looking into.
This price varies based on a range of factors, including:
In other words, the more complex the project is in Portobello and the more area it covers, the more it will cost. Factors like surface preparation time are also a consideration.
Microcement flooring can be applied in a wide variety of areas, including:
There can be many benefits to choosing a microcement floor over other options in Portobello, including a standard polished concrete surface. These include:
Microcement floors are a continuous floor, making it an ideal material for any floor where you want a final finish laid down quickly and in the same way every time. Polished concrete flooring requires expansion joints every few meters, which makes brand-new surfaces much harder to set up.
Aesthetically, polished concrete looks nice but is far more limited in colour, texture, or other elements. A microcement floor can be adapted into a suitable floor for any space and aesthetic, which can be especially important in commercial and domestic spaces.
Overall, microcement is smoother and often more durable while also being suitable for a wider variety of situations and styles. Both materials are good, but microcement simply works better as an overall flooring option in a lot of instances.
Microcement flooring is a cement-based coating and rendering that is trowelled on top of floors by hand, creating a surface finish that offers seamless coverage. This is an easy installation process in Portobello that creates a similar finish to polished concrete but uses a much more ideal material for many situations.
Microcement is a very thin coating of cement (hence the name micro-cement) combined with specialised aggregates and water-based or powdered polymers. This is applied in a few thin coats to leave a completely seamless floor behind.
While there are different types of microcement out there, most of them use fast-hardening cement, fine aggregates, fillers, and adhesive polymers to let the microcement stick to the surface beneath really well.
Microcement is applied to an existing floor using a trowel or sometimes a spray gun. This requires no expansion joints and only basic preparation, making it easy to apply the microcement floors on top of an existing floor.
This surface can use a variety of materials, from an existing concrete floor to a cement board or even wood. It can also be applied on vertical surfaces to create covered walls, stairs and ramps.
Microcement has a number of key features that make it a very desirable floor option:
Microcement is able to achieve a durable cover with very little effort, acting like a sealer to fill in gaps while also being a strong coating on its own.
Microcement can last for decades if treated right, something that can be achieved with proper maintenance. Mopping with a mild detergent and occasional sweeping is often all it takes to maintain the flooring.
Microcement may require plaster, depending on the material you are applying it to. If you are not sure – for example, you want to cover over existing tiles – then talk to experts like us to get advice on what would be needed.
Most microcement floors should be approximately 2-3mm thick, although this may vary in situations where the ground beneath is very uneven.
Microcement can work well with underfloor heating and even heats up faster than normal tiles in many cases.
We can provide a wide variety of flooring options in Portobello to suit client’s needs, whether they are looking for microcement as a flooring sealer or something to replace their entire existing floor. Our team is able to offer great flooring at a fair and carefully calculated cost.
