Microcement Cost in Ireland: The Direct Answer

60 – 150 euros per m2

Supply and installation. The range depends on surface type, project complexity, substrate condition and finish specification.

Microcement pricing in Ireland covers a meaningful range because it is a versatile material used in a wide variety of applications — from a small bathroom floor to a full hotel lobby. This guide breaks down costs by surface type, project size and supply arrangement to help you budget accurately.

For supply-only pricing (trade), costs start from approximately 35 euros per m2 for the full system including primer, microcement product and sealant. For full installation including a certified Cementec applicator, costs start from 60 euros per m2 for straightforward wall or floor applications and can reach 150 euros per m2 for complex bathroom or wet room installations with multiple surfaces.

What Affects the Price?

Surface Preparation Required

Poor substrates — cracked concrete, poorly fixed tiles, uneven surfaces — require additional preparation work before microcement can be applied. This adds cost but is essential for a long-lasting result.

Total Project Area

Larger projects cost less per m2. A 50 m2 floor will have a lower per-m2 cost than a 10 m2 one because the fixed costs of mobilisation, equipment and travel are spread over more area.

Number of Surfaces

Bathrooms covering both floors and walls are more complex than a single surface application, and priced accordingly. Multi-surface projects offer design benefits but require more material and labour.

Sealant Specification

Standard polyurethane sealant is included in most quotes. Specialist sealants for wet rooms, commercial high-traffic use or exterior applications add to the material cost.

Colour and Finish

Standard colours from the 22-colour range are included in base pricing. Custom colours for orders of 200 m2 or more are available at a premium. Finish level (matte, satin, gloss) does not typically affect price significantly.

Location in Ireland

Projects in Dublin may attract slightly higher installation costs due to contractor rates. Projects outside the main cities may have a travel supplement. Supply-only pricing is consistent nationwide.
