Microcement Vail / Aspen

Tadelakt and Microcement are both AMAZING plasters meant for wet use areas and can be continued elsewhere in dry areas to continue the stunning seamless look. Microcement can even be an awesome alternative to flooring anywhere including commercial businesses and residential homes.

​

It's not only a gorgeous finish but there's endless possibilities of colors and textures while achieving a seamless shower without all those annoying grout lines.

​

Not only is it aesthetically appealing but it's extremely durable, abrasion resistant, crack resistant, and super easy to maintain.​

​

Microcement is the most versatile with many sheen options ranging from Matte, Satin, or Gloss. It also has many more options for being able to achieve textures you wouldn't be able to achieve with Tadelakt. Also, much more suitable for floor applications. You can even go over tile with this option although not recommended. This is a 4 coat plaster with a 2 coat epoxy sealer. This is known as a forever finish as the plaster itself has an epoxy mixture in it and then it is sealed with an epoxy coating as well so other than keeping your shower clean, no annual maintenance.

​

Microcement can have a variety of textures including a smooth surface, a sandier grippy surface, or even heavy textures like a skip trowel. It also has the versatility to be able to be any color and can be as intricate as replicating stone veining as well.

​

Microcement is also an awesome alternative to a flooring choice. Microcement floors are extremely durable, no grout lines to clean up, and have a beautiful aesthetic.

​

Tadelakt is going to give you a similar aesthetic but with a polished gloss surface being really the only option for the finish. Tadelakt is 6 coats of plaster, an olive oil soap sealer, and a beeswax sealer as well. Almost like the eco-friendly sibling of microcement. This finish is recommended to be waxed annually for maintenance on the glossy sheen.

​

Both finishes can also be done in non-wet use areas without all the waterproofing to give you the option to cover all surfaces in the room without as costly of a process.
