Microcement for new builds in Flevoland
Flevoland is the youngest province in the Netherlands, literally built on new land. Almere and Lelystad are cities growing at a rapid pace, with lots of new construction and modern architecture. The neighbourhoods Almere Poort, Almere Duin and Nobelhorst attract young families and professionals who want a sleek, contemporary home. That makes Flevoland ideal for microcement.
In new-build homes the concrete screed is a perfect substrate for microcement. No old tiles to remove, no irregularities from years of use. Just a clean, flat base for a seamless end result. The screed needs to be cured for at least 28 days before microcement can be applied, something we coordinate with the contractor during the build process.
Many new-build buyers in Flevoland want a premium finish right away. The standard home has a concrete-look screed or laminate, but microcement takes it to another level. It is a unique, handmade surface that no other home on the street has. In an environment where homes often look architecturally similar, the floor makes the difference.
Flevoland's polder soil is young and can settle slightly. The flexible Forcrete system absorbs these minimal movements without cracking. The build-up of just 3 millimetres adds barely any weight to the construction, which is an advantage in new builds with lightweight floor structures.
From our base in South Holland we reach Flevoland quickly. Almere is one of the cities where we work regularly and where we know the local building practices well.
Discipline As Foundation
Coated Surfaces grew out of a world where precision isn't negotiable. Founder Pom spent years as a professional dancer at Cirque du Soleil. Every night the same movement, down to the millimetre. That might sound far from floors and walls, but it's the opposite.
Microcement demands exactly that same control. Timing, feel, precision. The difference between a good floor and an exceptional one comes down to millimetres. We take the time it needs. No rushing, no half measures. Just lasting surfaces that bring calm to a space.

New builds and microcement in Flevoland
In new-build estates of Almere and Lelystad, microcement is a popular upgrade. The standard screed is transformed into a unique design surface. With underfloor heating, which is standard in most new builds, microcement performs optimally. The thin material conducts heat more efficiently than thick tiles, meaning the underfloor heating responds faster and is more energy-efficient.
For bathrooms in new construction, the Forcrete system is ideal. Instead of tiles you get a seamless, waterproof surface that looks sleek and luxurious. No grout to keep clean, no chance of mould. Step-free walk-in showers are a popular choice in Flevoland new builds, and microcement makes that seamlessly possible.
Kitchens also benefit. A microcement countertop and backsplash create a continuous design element that suits Flevoland's modern architecture. Open kitchens that flow into the living room are visually connected by the same microcement floor in both spaces.
For home offices, which have become a fixture in many Flevoland family homes, microcement offers a professional look without the coldness of an office. It is sound-dampening and comfortable underfoot.

Why Coated Surfaces in Flevoland
We know Almere well. It is one of our regular work areas and we understand the specific challenges of new construction in Flevoland. As a certified Forcrete installer we offer a quality level that matches the ambition of new-build buyers who want something special.
Pom and his team apply every layer with care. The same craftspeople on every project, from start to finish. That personal approach makes the difference. Pom's background as a professional dancer with Cirque du Soleil taught him that every detail counts, a philosophy that translates into perfectly finished surfaces.
We exclusively use the complete Forcrete system: primer, base layers, finishing layers and sealer. Each product is developed to work together. That provides a guaranteed result that loose products can never offer. For new builds we coordinate the application timing with the contractor, ensuring microcement is applied at the optimal moment in the construction process.
