Microcement in Tilburg
Tilburg has reinvented itself. The textile factories have become cultural hubs, the Spoorzone is transforming into a creative city district, and the LocHal shows that industrial heritage and modern design strengthen each other. That combination of raw and refined is exactly what microcement is made for.
In the renovated factory homes and lofts of the Spoorzone, microcement works particularly well. The material adds an industrial concrete look without the coldness of actual concrete. It feels warm underfoot, especially combined with underfloor heating. And it flows seamlessly from room to room, keeping an open loft truly open.
But microcement is not just for rugged lofts. In the 1930s neighbourhoods around the Wilhelminapark and the family homes in Reeshof, it brings exactly the same calm. A seamless floor without grout makes any room feel larger and cleaner.
We work for private clients and businesses alike. From bathrooms and kitchens to retail floors and hospitality venues. In Tilburg and the surrounding area.
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.

Microcement applications in Tilburg
Tilburg has embraced its textile past. In the Spoorzone, factories are being converted into lofts, studios and hospitality venues. Microcement fits that context like no other material: it has the honest, industrial look but feels warm and refined. We see it often in open-plan living spaces where floor, kitchen counter and bathroom run in the same tone - that is what gives these lofts their identity.
Waterproof finishing is what we get asked about most in Tilburg. Bathrooms, walk-in showers, splashbacks behind the kitchen counter. Forcrete microcement is fully waterproof when applied correctly, and that is exactly why craftsmanship matters so much. We build up every layer by hand, from primer to topcoat.
In the 1930s neighbourhoods around Wilhelminapark, the story is different: families wanting to modernise their bathroom without ripping everything out. Microcement goes directly over existing tiles. And in Reeshof, where young families live, a seamless floor is simply practical - no grout lines collecting dirt, easy to keep clean with children running around the house.

Why microcement in Tilburg?
Tilburg combines down-to-earth pragmatism with boldness. Our approach fits that perfectly. No exaggerated promises, just a watertight result. Forcrete microcement is 100% waterproof, scratch-resistant, and built for intensive use - at home and in your commercial space. We are one of the few certified Forcrete installers in the Netherlands. That means a finish you will enjoy for years, without compromise.
In the Spoorzone you can see how industrial heritage gets a new life. That mix of raw and refined is exactly what microcement does. For homes in the Wilhelminapark area I work with warm, subtle tones that match the character of the neighbourhood. In Reeshof it is more often about sleek, modern finishes in newer homes. Every project is different and that is precisely why I love this craft. I apply every layer myself, without subcontractors. That is not a marketing line, it is how I work. One craftsman, one responsibility, one result you are proud of.
How does a microcement project work in Tilburg?
I always start with a visit to your home or business premises. In Tilburg I encounter diverse situations: old textile factories converted into apartments, 1930s homes with original tile floors, or modern terraced houses in Reeshof. The substrate determines the preparation, and I never skip that step. After the consultation you receive a quotation with a clear price and schedule. On the working days I prepare the floor or walls, apply a bonding primer, and build up the microcement in multiple layers. All by hand, with a Japanese trowel. For commercial spaces in the Spoorzone or hospitality venues around the Heuvel, I take opening hours and logistics into account. I work with focus and neatness, and clean up everything when I am done. The final step is the sealer that protects the surface. After that you can simply use the space. Solid, waterproof, done.
