Microcement in Nijmegen

Bring old and new together. Keep the construction honest.

About Microcement

A new surface over a considered base

For a microcement renovation in Nijmegen, the useful starting point is a plan of what stays and what changes. Are you opening rooms, adding an extension or renewing a bathroom? Coated works from Schiedam and discusses projects throughout the Netherlands. We can review your brief in English before agreeing the inspection and scope.

A mineral finish can bring visual continuity to a changed layout. It cannot establish that two different floors beneath it behave as one. Mark the changes in construction, previous repairs and any movement you have noticed. Those facts matter more to the proposed build-up than a building's postcode or an attractive reference image.

About Coated Surfaces

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.

Official certified Forcrete installer. Trained to expertly apply 100% waterproof microcement systems. Seamless finishes for bathrooms, floors and walls.

Pay attention where constructions meet

An existing house and a later extension can have different floor constructions. The junction needs assessment before a continuous finish is proposed. Required movement joints must be respected; microcement should not be presented as a way to make structural movement disappear.

Where timber floors or boarded surfaces are involved, their suitability needs a specific review. Adding a finish is not a substitute for a stable supporting construction. If structural questions arise, resolve them with the appropriate building professional before treating them as a surface-preparation item.

In a bathroom, show the shower fall, drain position and changes to plumbing. The preparation and connection details need to suit water exposure. For an existing tiled room, do not assume everything can remain: loose tiles, uneven areas and moisture require attention before the decorative layers.

Check levels at stairs, doors and adjoining finishes as part of the same review. The coating itself is only part of the complete floor height. That is especially important when original details are being kept while other parts of the room are renewed.

We had our bathroom, measuring approximately 3 by 3 metres, completely renovated with microcement by Pom of Coated Surfaces, including a wall enclosing the shower. [...] In short: a craftsman and a pleasure to have in your home.

It had been a wish for years. Pom made that wish come true. In a short conversation we shared our wishes and Pom thought along with us. The work was done very neatly, precisely and as agreed. His aftercare is also very good. We are very happy with the end result. Thank you, Pom.

Top company, they think along with you and simply keep the agreements they make! As it should be. Pom delivered a piece of true craftsmanship in our bathroom.

Why Coated Surfaces

Use references to discuss details

The Harmelen home in our portfolio shows a finished residential interior; the Rotterdam bathroom shows work around sanitary details. These are completed references outside Nijmegen. They help you explain what you like without pretending that the same preparation is right for every home. The result should belong to your room, not simply copy a photograph.

Process

Agree who prepares each part

Send a marked floor plan, photographs and the scope of the builder's work. Note who is responsible for repairs, levelling, heating and plumbing. If a contractor is handing over the substrate, agree the handover requirements before either party books the next stage.

The proposal should separate the prepared base from the finish, identify the sample and set out the practical sequence. Dates for moving furniture, using the shower and cleaning are confirmed against the installed system. Keep the care instructions: the surface needs maintenance, and changes or damage should be discussed rather than hidden under an improvised repair.

What to include in your enquiry

  • Mark the junction between the original house and any extension.
  • Identify timber, screed, tiles and previous repairs where known.
  • Name the contractor responsible for each preparation task.

As a starting point, floors are from €140/m² and bathrooms and walls from €180/m², excluding VAT. Material and application are included; preparation is additional. The minimum project value is €3,000 excluding VAT. The cost guide explains the rates; your quotation defines the actual scope and price.

Frequently Asked

Good to know

Can microcement cross the join to an extension?

The junction must be assessed before a continuous finish is agreed. Different constructions may move differently, and necessary movement joints remain part of the design. The coating is not a structural bridge or a guarantee against cracking.

Is betonstuc the same specification as microcement?

A general finish name is not enough to compare proposals. Ask which manufacturer, products, preparation and protective finish are included. Coated works with Forcrete; the selected system must suit the substrate and use of the room.

Does this page also cover Nijmegen's surrounding region?

This page focuses on a project in Nijmegen. The Gelderland guide provides the regional starting point and links to the other location pages. In either case, send the actual address and project details rather than relying on a town name to describe the building.
