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.
Cost Breakdown by Surface Type
| Surface | Supply Only (per m2) | Supply + Install (per m2) | Typical Project Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bathroom (floor + walls) | 35 – 50 euros | 80 – 150 euros | 1,500 – 6,000 euros |
| Floor (residential) | 35 – 45 euros | 80 – 140 euros | 900 – 7,500 euros |
| Walls (residential) | 30 – 45 euros | 60 – 120 euros | 600 – 4,000 euros |
| Kitchen (floor + worktop) | 35 – 50 euros | 90 – 150 euros | 2,000 – 6,000 euros |
| Stairs | 35 – 50 euros | 100 – 160 euros | 1,500 – 4,000 euros |
| Exterior Terrace / Path | 40 – 55 euros | 90 – 150 euros | 1,500 – 8,000 euros |
Prices are indicative for 2026. Actual quotes will depend on site conditions, location and specification.
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.
Microcement vs Alternatives — Cost Comparison
| Material | Supply + Install per m2 | Key Consideration |
|---|---|---|
| Microcement | 80-150 euros | No tile removal needed, seamless, walls and floors |
| Ceramic / Porcelain Tiles | 50-120 euros | Plus tile removal cost (often 20-40 euros/m2) in renovations |
| Polished Concrete | 100-200 euros | New slab required — major structural work in renovations |
| Epoxy Resin Floor | 70-130 euros | Limited to floors, colour fade risk, industrial look |
| Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) | 40-80 euros | Not suitable for showers or wet rooms, not seamless |
