What Is Microcement?
Microcement, also known as “Microcemento“, is a decorative, cement-based coating used to create seamless, modern surfaces in both residential and commercial spaces. It combines cement, water-based resins, mineral pigments, and additives to form a strong, flexible, and visually appealing finish. One of its main advantages is its ability to adhere to almost any surface, including tiles, plaster, concrete, wood, and even metal, making it an ideal choice for renovations without the need for demolition.
It is popular for its versatility. It can be applied to floors, walls, ceilings, staircases, and furniture, and is also suitable for wet areas like bathrooms and kitchens due to its water resistance when properly sealed.
The seamless nature eliminates grout lines, creating a continuous, clean look that enhances both small and large spaces. It’s available in a wide range of colours and finishes, including matte, satin, and gloss.
Durable, low-maintenance, and customizable, it is favoured in contemporary interior design for its minimalistic aesthetic and practical benefits. Whether used in homes, retail stores, or hospitality settings, it offers a stylish and functional alternative to traditional coverings like tiles or polished concrete.
So Why Should You Choose It?
It has become a top choice for architects, designers, and homeowners thanks to its unique blend of style, strength, and versatility. Here’s why it stands out:
Seamless Aesthetic:
It creates a continuous surface with no joints or grout lines, giving spaces a clean, modern, and luxurious feel. It’s perfect for minimalist or industrial designs.
Highly Versatile:
Apply it on almost any surface—floors, walls, furniture, stairs, even bathrooms and outdoor areas. Whether you’re renovating or starting from scratch, it adapts beautifully.
Applied Over Existing Surfaces:
Avoid the mess and cost of tearing out old materials. It can be applied directly over tiles, concrete, plaster, and more, making it ideal for quick and efficient renovations.
Durable & Long-Lasting:
Despite its slim profile (usually just 2–3 mm thick), it is resistant to wear, scratches, impacts, and chemicals. When sealed properly, it holds up well even in high-traffic areas.
Water & Heat Resistant:
It’s a great choice for bathrooms, kitchens, and fireplace surrounds. With the right sealer, it becomes water-repellent and can handle heat, making it functional as well as stylish.
Customizable Finishes:
Choose from a wide range of colours, textures, and finishes (matte, satin, or glossy) to suit your space and personal style.
Low Maintenance:
It is easy to clean with mild soap and water—no need for special cleaners. Its seamless nature also means fewer places for dirt or mould to accumulate.
Eco-Friendly Option:
Since it requires minimal material and reduces the need for demolition, it is considered a more sustainable alternative to traditional construction finishes.
Where Can Microcement Be Applied?
Microcement can be applied almost anywhere!
Floors:
Microcement can be applied to floors of various types, including concrete, tiles, wood, and MDF.
Walls:

As well as any room in a home, office, shop or other location (such as bedrooms, lounge rooms, etc).
How Thick Do We Apply It?
It is typically applied in a very thin layer, usually between 2 – 3 MM thick. This minimal thickness makes it a lightweight and versatile option for various surfaces, including floors, walls, and ceilings.
Can Underfloor Heating Systems Be Used?
Yes, underfloor heating systems can be used. Microcement’s high thermal conductivity and heat resistance make it a suitable flooring option for use with radiant heating systems. Proper installation and adherence to manufacturer guidelines are essential to ensure longevity and prevent issues like cracking.
What Colours Can Be Used?
The product is available in a large range of colours, from natural earthy tones to more bold, modern hues. While exact availability depends on the manufacturer, here are the most common categories of colours:
1. Neutral Tones – These give a minimalist, industrial, or contemporary look:
White, Off-white / Ivory, Light Grey, Medium Grey, Charcoal / Dark Grey, Black
2. Earthy and Warm Tones – For a softer or more rustic look:
Beige, Taupe, Terracotta, Sand, Stone, Clay, Ochre
3. Cool and Muted Colours – Often used in modern interiors:
Sage Green, Dusty Blue, Steel Blue, Muted Teal
4. Bold and Custom Colours – Some suppliers offer custom tinting for unique interiors:
Deep Green, Navy, Mustard, Burgundy, Copper, Rust
Colour variation is natural:
– Because it is hand-applied and pigmented manually, slight tonal variation is expected and often adds to the aesthetic.
Finish affects colour perception:
– Textured, Matte, Satin, or Gloss Sealers can significantly change how the final colour appears.
Where Can We Provide Our Services?
Here at Carpet Removal Sydney, we specialise in Installation in ANY location, such as:
– Residential Properties
– Commercial Properties
– Industrial Properties
– STRATA Properties
– Government Properties
– Retail Locations & Outlets
– Any Unit Block / High Rise / Apartment
– As well as any other location required!
Is It Dangerous To Install?
Yes, installing it can be dangerous.
Without the correct PPE and power tools/equipment will create a harmful silica dust environment. It’s also possible to be injured by tools as well as from the process.
– SERIOUS INJURIES: Sometimes, Tiny pieces of Concrete can go flying in the air during the Installation process. Pieces of concrete can accidentally hit your eye, causing serious damage, if not blindness. The tools required to perform this task are also dangerous to use for people who are not highly skilled in using these tools.
– ACCIDENTAL INJURIES: It’s easy to look up a guide on what tools to use, but injuries often occur from a lack of knowledge of how to use these tools safely.
– PERMANENT LUNG DAMAGE: Inhaling dangerous silica dust by not using the correct PPE and Dust Extractors can be deadly.
The longer silicosis goes without treatment, the more likely it is to develop a complication. Because the disease affects the immune system, silicosis patients are vulnerable to developing tuberculosis, lung cancer, COPD, and kidney disease.
-
- Lung Cancer.
- Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
- Kidney Disease.
- Autoimmune Disease.
Breathing in very small (“respirable”) crystalline silica particles causes multiple diseases, including silicosis, an incurable lung disease that leads to disability and death. Respirable crystalline silica also causes lung cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and kidney disease.
Why Do I Need A Professional For Installation?
– SPEED: Hiring a professional company to apply the coating is incredibly faster than attempting to do the project yourself.
– COST: Here at Carpet Removal Sydney, we have very reasonable prices and offer a Price Beat Guarantee. We can often complete your project for a fair price compared to the costs of attempting to level the floor yourself. When it comes to larger jobs, it will always be cheaper to leave it up to the professionals at Carpet Removal Sydney!
– READY: Rather than slowly completing your job on your hands and knees, we can complete your project within a short period of time to ensure that your home is ready for the next part of your renovation project.
How Does Installation Work?
Installation typically involves a multi-step process that begins with thorough surface preparation, followed by the application of a primer or adhesion promoter, and then multiple coats of microcement, often including a base coat, a decorative layer, and a sealant. The final step ensures a durable and aesthetically pleasing finish.
Is It Difficult To Install?
Yes, installing it can be a difficult and time-consuming project, and the challenges often remain hidden until the project is underway.
While not extremely difficult, applying it does require a certain level of skill and attention to detail to achieve a professional finish. It’s messy and takes time to master the technique, and while no special machinery is needed, you will require some tools and must adhere to the proper mix proportions and layer thicknesses.
Skill Required:
Application isn’t a DIY project for beginners, especially if you want a high-quality result. It requires practice and a knack for handling the tools like trowels, spatulas, and rollers
If you have a job that is over 10 square metres, it is considered a hard task, which will be expensive and frustrating to attempt to do yourself. It’s often cheaper to hire a contractor than to hire the tools, PPE, and other equipment required to attempt the project yourself.
There are several different installation methods. We only recommend attempting Installation yourself if the project is under 10 square metres and you have the appropriate tools, PPE, and dust extraction equipment.
For jobs over the size of 10 square metres, we ALWAYS recommend leaving it up to the professionals.

Is There Magnesite Flooring In Your Property?
If your home was built in the 1920s – 1980s, likely, your home (Especially unit blocks in NSW) could potentially have Magnesite Flooring. Magnesite is present below a flooring system such as carpet. Magnesite is a product used as a noise preventative and a Floor Levelling agent.
Magnesite Flooring absorbs moisture (particularly in areas prone to moisture such as external walls, doorways, around shower recesses, near windows, laundries, etc.) Unfortunately, once Magnesite Flooring absorbs moisture, it starts a chemical reaction that will cause Concrete Cancer over long periods of time.
Because your Magnesite Flooring was laid 40 – 100 years ago, it has likely absorbed moisture over the many decades that it has been trapped under your flooring system, and it has most likely started to break down and lose its strength, making it an unsuitable Floor Levelling product that it once was, as well as very hollow, which destroys its soundproofing.
The best thing you can do to prevent further damage to your property and the concrete slab is to remove it ASAP. Magnesite Flooring consists of Magnesium Oxychloride, which may contain ASBESTOS.
Since it is a health hazard and a major safety risk in NSW, if you remove your flooring system and find out there is Magnesite under it.
YOU MUST remove your Magnesite Flooring for the safety of you and everyone else in your unit block.
Strata may pay to remove your Magnesite Flooring as it is considered “Common property”. Magnesite Flooring can cause Concrete Cancer, which is a major risk to everyone’s safety as well as the successful reinstallation of your new flooring system.
NO company will give you any form of warranty or insurance on any flooring installation job on a magnesite floor, which is another reason why it should always be removed.

How Do I Work Out How Much My Job Will Cost?
How To Use A Square Metre Calculator – A square metre calculator is very simple to use. To calculate square meters, you need to know the length and width of each area (Floor plans or manual measuring can help with this). This is also referred to as the area of the shape; most commonly, it’s a simple square or rectangle, but for more advanced areas, it can be harder and different shapes.
Square metres are calculated by Length x Width
For example 1 x 1 = 1 square metre
For example 7 x 4 = 28 square metres
For example 14 x 1 = 14 Square Metres
Or you can simply email Carpet Removal Sydney your “Floor Plan” to make it easier for you. We will calculate the square metres for you, but sometimes a Floor Plan may be missing measurements (most commonly the hallways), so those may need to be manually measured, or we may need to “guess” the rough measurement of that area.
Here is an example of a floor plan sent to us with “Missing Measurements.”
How to Calculate Square Meters
You might find yourself needing the area of a room or other space in square meters for a flooring, renovation, or landscaping project. To obtain such a measurement, you can measure the area of the space in square meters in a few simple steps. Follow along to learn how to calculate it yourself, or simply use the calculator above.
Step One: Measure Length and Width
In order to calculate the area of a space, you must know its dimensions. For example, if the shape of the space is a square or rectangle, then start by measuring the length and width of the space in meters using a tape measure or other measuring tool.
If your measurements are in another unit of measure, centimetres, for example, then you can either convert them to meters first, or you can find the area in another unit and convert them to square meters. We have some simple area conversion utilities, or you can convert yourself. If your length measurements are in centimetres, then divide by 100 to get meters.
If your area measurement is in square centimetres, then divide by 10,000 to get square meters.
If your space is not a square or rectangle, you may need to use a formula to calculate the area of a different shape. Or continue reading to see how to measure the area of oddly shaped rooms.
Step Two: Multiply Measurements Together
Once you have your measurements in meters, you can use the appropriate formula to calculate the area of the space in square meters. Continuing the example above for the square or rectangular room, now that you have a length and width measurement, you can find the area in square meters by multiplying the length and width together.
square meters = length × width
Measuring Oddly Shaped Rooms
Often, you’ll need to measure a space that’s not a perfect rectangle. It might be easiest to try to split up oddly shaped areas into separate shapes and measure the square meters of each of them separately.
Once that is complete, add up the individually calculated areas to find the total area of the space. You’ll also find that the formula above works great for rectangular areas. For other shapes, try our area calculator.
For example, see the formula below to see how to add two individually calculated areas of a complex space together.
total square meters = area 1 + area 2
FAQ’s
Are Square Metres and Metres The Same Thing?
No, square meters are a two-dimensional unit of area, whereas meters are a one-dimensional unit of length.
What Does 1 Square Metre Look Like?
One square meter is equal to a square that is 1 meter in width by 1 meter in height. For visual reference, a guitar is about 1 meter in length, so 1 square meter is approximately the area inside of a square made with guitars for edges.
Are Square Metres and Metres The Same Thing?
You can use square meters anytime you wish to know the area of space. Square meters are typically used for flooring, landscaping, and agricultural purposes.
How Many Square Metres Is A 10 x 10 Room?
A 10 m x 10 m room has an area of exactly 100 square meters, as shown by:
10 m × 10 m = 100 sq m
How Many Square Metres Is A 9 x 3 Room?
A 9 m x 3 m room has an area of exactly 27 square meters, as shown by:
9 m × 3 m = 127 sq m
What Does “Per Square Metre” Mean?
“Per square meter” is used whenever you are dividing some quantity by a total area, measured in square meters, for instance, to find a unit price. For example, if you want to resurface a 60 square meter lounge room and the total cost is $3,000, then the price per square meter is $50, as shown by:
$3,000 / 60 Square Metres = $50 per square meter
$3,000 divided by 60 Square Metres = $50 / Per Square Metre
Do I Need To Hire A Skip Bin?
No, Other contractors and companies, regardless of job size, will make you hire a skip bin, which will cost a huge amount ($375 – $1,000+) and will have to sit in your front yard for days while you deal with the annoyance of organising it and the large cost of the whole process.
Here at Carpet Removal Sydney, we come in, apply our coating, and our team will sweep and vacuum your property to clean up any dust!
Then, once we are finished, we will also take all the waste to a local resource management centre for you (Recycling whenever possible), which will be far cheaper than you having to hire a skip bin and dealing with the frustration of that whole process! (On average, our clients save 60% on disposal of waste charges)
Do I Need To Turn Off My Air-con And Fire Alarms?
Yes, while we are renovating your property, we do try to keep the dust to an absolute minimum through various methods such as dust extraction units. (But Dust still may occur, so it is important that you turn off air conditioning units as well as isolate, switch off and cover your fire alarms as dust will set them off.)
What Equipment Does Our Team Use?
This is a small range of the equipment that we use on our projects.

TESTIMONIALS
“I was shocked when I had realised that my daughter had spilled my paint set all over my new carpet in my rental property, had no idea what to do, everything I tried failed, gave Carpet Removal Sydney a quick call and they gave me free advice over the phone, with no charge that actually worked! Thank you so much!”
“Can’t argue with cheapest prices, best customer services, and same day service! very impressed!”
“Was completely gobsmacked at the quotes that I got from 3 other company’s on the northern beaches and how outrageously high they were just to remove the carpet in a shop I had recently purchased. So it was such a relief when my friend recommended I try out Carpet Removal Sydney and I ended up saving over $3,000, Thanks again!”
“The boys at Carpet Removal Sydney went out of their way to help me so much as I wasn’t able to move a lot of the furniture myself as my back isn’t great. I also saved over $400 getting the carpet removed by these guys! Would recommend, thanks again!”
“Thanks again boys! really happy with how my shop looks now! i knew ripping out the carpet was the best option, definitely looks a lot better with a clean smooth slab so that i could install a nice hardwood floor”
“I always recommend Carpet Removal Sydney when a tenant moves out of one of our properties if the carpet needs to be replaced. They always do an amazing job, leave the property clean and save our clients hundreds and sometimes even thousands.”
“The boys at Carpet Removal Sydney also did an absolutely amazing job with the removal as well as the installation of my carpet as well after it was flooded by my dishwasher overnight. Called them up at 6 pm, they were also there the next day and completed the take up the same day! Really happy with the result.”
“I had absolutely no idea what to do when we had a pipe burst in our property, but thankfully Carpet Removal Sydney had a 24-hour emergency assistance team that did an absolutely amazing job with the removal of the carpet that had been completely soaked, called them up at 2 am on a Tuesday and they were here within 30minutes. Couldn’t be happier with their services!”
“Excellent service from the team at Carpet Removal Sydney. Will definitely use their services again, was absolutely amazed at how much money I saved going through Carpet Removal Sydney instead of going through Carpet Court.”
“Very impressed with your team members high quality work. You all arrived on time, you did an amazing job finish the removal process and installation process without damaging anything. (My last two experiences with carpet layers from carpet court they both damaged the skirting boards and a piece of furniture) So thanks for giving me faith again that a job can be completed without my property being damaged. And thanks to your team for helping me in such short notice due to my unit having flood damage! Really appreciate everything that you did for me!”
“He has great product knowledge and took the time to thoroughly explain the differences of each carpet in a simple way. He has a very personable manner and is very friendly and polite. He explained the process well provided a competitive quote. He was flexible with the install date (as I had some other trades finishing off work before the carpet could be installed) and worked with me to secure a date that suited both parties. I had an issue with the underlay requirements due to strata laws and Declan was very helpful in helping me source the correct underlay to meet strata requirements. I believe he went over and above his role to assist me. The floors are amazing! I’m extremely happy with the choice and the whole process. Thank you Declan. I hope Carpet Removal Sydney realise what an asset you are to their team. ”
“You were very professional, well dressed, well mannered and quick. I will recommend your services to our friends. Thanks again!”
“I attempted a carpet removal job my self in my new office only to realise the job was commercially glued down, needless to say as a I.T nerd i had absolutely no chance of removing it haha. I thought i would give a few companys a call to request a quote on how much the removal process would cost… and my god i was shocked at the overwhelming expense of how much commercial carpet removal costs… I was so relieved though when i stumbled across Carpet Removal Sydney (One of my co-workers recently had their team out to remove carpet in a new house they purchased) and was relieved when i finally found a company that was willing to do it for a fair price. I was a little concerned at the start due to their price being so much lower than all of their competitors, but my co-worker re assured me that they had an amazing team. I was quite relieved when the whole process was over and they had done such an amazing job for almost a third of their competitors prices. Thanks again lads! If you ever need a computer fixed hit me up! ”
“Thanks again for your help guys, I really appreciate you coming so far to do such a small job”
