Why Microcement is the Best Alternative to Tiles for Your Home
Are you tired of grout lines, cracked tiles, and outdated designs? Whether you're renovating your kitchen, bathroom, or living space, microcement is the sleek, modern alternative to traditional tiles that offers a host of benefits. At Marbled Plastering, we specialise in delivering stunning microcement finishes that can transform any surface.
Here's why microcement should be your top choice over tiles:
1. Seamless and Stylish Look
One of the biggest advantages of microcement is its seamless finish. Unlike tiles, which require grout lines and can create a fragmented look, microcement creates a smooth, continuous surface that adds depth and sophistication to any space. Whether you choose a polished or matte finish, microcement offers a modern and stylish look that tiles simply can't match.
2. No Grout Lines, No Hassle
Grout can be a nightmare to clean and maintain. Over time, grout lines can collect dirt, mildew, and stains, which are difficult to remove. Microcement, on the other hand, eliminates grout lines entirely, offering an easy-to-clean surface that resists stains and dirt. With microcement, maintenance is a breeze.
3. Durability and Longevity
Microcement is highly durable and perfect for high-traffic areas. Unlike tiles, which can crack or chip over time, microcement is flexible, resistant to impact, and highly resistant to wear and tear. Whether used on floors, walls, or countertops, microcement offers a long-lasting solution that stands up to daily use.
4. Endless Design Possibilities
Tiles come in a variety of shapes, colours, and styles, but they still require grout lines to hold them in place, which can limit design possibilities. With microcement, the only limit is your imagination. Microcement can be applied to almost any surface, offering endless design possibilities in any colour or texture. Whether you want a sleek grey tone, a bold finish, or a natural stone effect, microcement is fully customisable.
5. Eco-Friendly Option
Many tiles are made from non-renewable resources and require a significant amount of energy to produce. Microcement is made with eco-friendly materials like cement and limestone, making it a more sustainable option for homeowners and businesses looking to reduce their environmental footprint. It's a smart choice for anyone interested in more environmentally responsible home improvements.
6. Faster Installation and Less Disruption
Traditional tiling can be a time-consuming and disruptive process, especially if you need to remove old tiles first. With microcement, the application is quick and clean. It's applied directly over existing surfaces, meaning you can avoid the hassle of removing tiles, grout, and other materials. This makes the installation process faster, saving both time and money.
7. Ideal for Small and Large Spaces
Whether you're working with a small bathroom or a large open-plan kitchen, microcement can be applied seamlessly to both small and large areas. Its versatility means it's perfect for floors, walls, countertops, and even furniture. The ability to create a cohesive design that flows from room to room makes microcement a fantastic choice for modern interior design.
8. Water-Resistant and Hygienic
Microcement is a water-resistant material, making it perfect for wet areas like bathrooms, kitchens, and even outdoor spaces. When properly sealed, microcement is not only resistant to water but also highly hygienic. It doesn't retain moisture like tiles can, reducing the risk of mould growth in damp areas.
