Microcement Flooring Cost in Melbourne: What Affects Price (and What to Expect)

Microcement flooring cost in Melbourne isn’t a simple “product price per m²”. The final number is driven by preparation, the condition of what you’re coating, complexity, and the sealing system.

Why microcement flooring pricing varies so much

Two homes can have the same floor size and totally different pricing. The reason is simple: the substrate and the prep scope usually decide the job.

1) Substrate condition (the biggest variable)

• Cracks, movement, hollow areas, or drummy tiles change the prep approach
• Uneven slabs or weak screeds may require levelling or repairs
• Old coatings, glue, or contaminants can require grinding/remediation

2) Going over tiles vs stripping back

Microcement can often be installed over existing tiles when they’re stable and properly prepared. If tiles are moving, hollow, or compromised, the prep increases and sometimes the best option is to rectify the base first.

For the complete suitability breakdown, read the pillar guide: Microcement Flooring vs Tiles (Melbourne Guide).

3) Area complexity

• Multiple rooms, tight access, stairs, and hallways add labour
• Thresholds, level changes, and clean transitions matter
• Occupied homes often require extra protection and staging

4) Sealer system and performance requirements

Microcement is a system, not just a finish coat. Sealer selection affects stain resistance, maintenance, and how the floor handles day-to-day life. Kitchens, entries, and high-traffic zones usually need a stronger approach than a low-traffic room.

A fast way to get a realistic range

If you want a useful estimate without wasting time, send:

• Your suburb
• 2–4 photos of the existing floor
• Approx. size (m² or room list)
• Whether it’s over tiles, concrete slab, or screed
