Microbase — the foundation
every microcement floor is built on.
Microbase is the structural undercoat of KCBerry's six-system range — a primer and fibre-reinforced microcement undercoat designed to bond directly to tile, plaster, concrete, screed, plywood and MDF. Two thin coats with an embedded fibreglass mesh form a flat, crack-resistant 1–2 mm base for every KCBerry finish: Microtraffic, Micronoslip, Poolcement, Microfinishing and Pure Lime. It's what allows a microcement renovation to happen without demolition — and the finish to stay flawless for decades. Delivered UK-wide.
Bonds to
almost any surface.
Microbase is the first layer of every KCBerry project. It levels tile, ceramic, mosaic, natural stone, cement screed, concrete slabs, plaster, plasterboard, plywood and MDF — indoors and outdoors — and forms the mesh-reinforced undercoat onto which a Microtraffic floor, a Micronoslip shower, a Poolcement pool lining or a Microfinishing wall is then applied. This is why a bathroom or kitchen can be renovated in microcement without demolition, and why the finish stays crack-free despite seasonal movement in the substrate beneath it.
The base beneath
all five finishes.
One base, five finishes. The same fibre-reinforced Microbase sits beneath Microtraffic for kitchen and living-room floors, beneath Micronoslip for showers, pool surrounds and terraces, beneath Poolcement for fully submerged pools and spas, beneath Microfinishing for walls, ceilings and low-traffic floors, and beneath Pure Lime for breathable, mineral lime interiors. Because the undercoat is identical across every system, a project can move from a kitchen floor to a shower tray to an accent wall in one continuous mineral surface, matched in colour and level.
Two thin trowelled coats with an embedded fibreglass mesh, 6 to 12 h recoat time, roughly 1.2 kg/m² per coat — a 20 kg bag covers roughly 8 to 10 m² of finished substrate, ready for the finish the next working day.
Honest, detailed
pricing.
Microbase is priced by the bag and by m² of coverage. In materials alone, the undercoat (bag, primer, mesh) is in the order of £18 to £28 per m² — materials only, excluding installation. We supply materials only: our quotes never include installation. That is commissioned and invoiced directly by the installer of your choice, whose rates we don't control. That said, a materials quote almost always pairs Microbase with your chosen finish — Microtraffic, Micronoslip, Poolcement, Microfinishing or Pure Lime.
Every project is priced individually after a short remote conversation about the installation, so the figure you're quoted is the figure you pay. See the full pricing page for a breakdown of tiers, or request a free quote below.
