Microcemento, a Statement of Seamless Sophistication

Screenshot 2025-05-07 at 9.22.21 AM

In contemporary design, where materials must meet the demands of both function and form, Urban Concrete Floors’ Microcemento finish stands as a masterstroke in seamless surface innovation.

As one of the fastest-growing finishes in modern architecture and interior design, Microcement has become a preferred choice among designers and builders worldwide for its versatility, elegance, and durability.

At Urban Concrete Floors, we specialise in delivering architectural finishes that are both technically advanced and visually compelling, and our Microcemento flooring solution exemplifies this philosophy.

Developed for discerning architects, interior designers, and design-conscious property owners, Microcemento is a high-performance decorative overlay designed to elevate any environment. From modern residential interiors to high-traffic commercial spaces, this system brings the enduring beauty of natural stone into a controlled, refined finish.

Understanding Microcemento

Microcemento is an artisanal, hand-trowelled overlay system that offers the look and feel of honed stone with the precision of modern technology. Applied over existing substrates, including tiles, timber, screed, or concrete, it creates a continuous, grout-free surface with gentle undulations and rich tonal depth.

Where many microcement products on the market fall short in technical flexibility, Urban Concrete Floors’ Microcemento allows for installation depths ranging from 4mm to 10mm. This accommodates both aesthetic preferences and practical renovation needs, particularly when clients are replacing existing flooring and require additional build-up to match adjacent surfaces.

The Advantages of Microcemento Over Conventional Concrete Finishes

While polished concrete and grind-and-seal solutions have long been staples in modern design, they offer a very different aesthetic compared to decorative overlays like Microcemento. Polished concrete can certainly work well in residential spaces, providing a sleek, high-gloss finish, but it often exposes aggregate and requires ongoing maintenance to maintain its polished look. Similarly, grind-and-seal methods, commonly used in larger commercial or industrial settings offer a durable, matte surface. However, they lack the seamless continuity and design flexibility of Microcemento, and the presence of pore holes often leads to dirty, hard-to-maintain corridors.

Urban Concrete Floors’ Microcemento directly addresses these limitations. Unlike traditional methods, which can result in patchy tones, surface inconsistencies, or exposed aggregate, Microcemento provides a smooth, continuous surface that’s not only visually stunning but also highly durable and maintenance-friendly, making it the ideal choice for those seeking a refined, sophisticated finish.

Key Advantages:

  • Design Continuity
    Microcemento provides a seamless visual field, free of joints or grout lines,  ideal for creating fluid transitions between interior and exterior zones.
  • Technical Superiority
    With a compressive strength of 30MPa and a penetrating sealer system, Microcemento is engineered for longevity and resistance to wear, even in high-demand environments.
  • Architectural Depth
    Unlike our alternative decorative overlay finishes, which typically cap at 2–3mm, Microcemento offers robust thickness, which can be applied up to 10mm.
  • Efficient Turnaround
    Most projects are completed within 5 to 8 days, minimising downtime without sacrificing the hand-finished quality Urban Concrete is known for.

A Handcrafted Approach to Architectural Flooring

Microcemento surfaces are hand-trowelled by our specialist team using a meticulous blend of tinted epoxies, polymers, and cementitious materials. The result is a finish that is as textural and dynamic as it is robust, a deliberate departure from the cold, clinical flatness of machine-finished concrete. Microcemento provides a much more visually rich and textural surface.

Each surface is crafted on-site, shaped by our artisans for balance, texture, and tone. The subtle movement within the finish reflects the depth and skill of its application.

The Expertise Behind Urban Concrete Floors

In a crowded market, the difference lies in execution. At Urban Concrete Floors, we don’t just install surfaces, we deliver architectural outcomes. Our team brings years of experience in decorative overlays, with an unwavering commitment to precision, client communication, and finish excellence.
