How Much Area Does a Microcement Kit Cover? (Updated 2025)
If you’re planning a new concrete-look surface, the big question is: how far will a kit go? Because walls, floors, worktops and tiled areas use slightly different systems and coat counts, coverage varies a little between them.
At Concrete Lab, all Microcement Kits come in 5 m² and 10 m² sizes and include everything you need for the system: powder & resin, mesh (where required), mesh tape, and sealer.
Understanding Coverage
| Kit Type | System | Coats | Typical Total Thickness | Coverage per Kit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wall Kit | 2-coat | Base + Finish | ~1–1.2 mm | 5 m² / 10 m² |
| Floor Kit | 2-coat* | Base + Finish | ~1–1.2 mm | 5 m² / 10 m² |
| Worktop Kit (Indoor) | 2-coat | Base + Finish | ~1–1.2 mm | 5 m² / 10 m² |
| Wall Tile Kit | 3-coat | Mesh coat + two finish coats | ~1.5–2 mm | 5 m² / 10 m² |
| Outdoor Worktop Kit | 3-coat | Mesh coat + two finish coats | ~1.5–2 mm | 5 m² / 10 m² |
*Floor systems use a fibreglass mesh embedded in a self-levelling compound (purchased separately) before applying the two microcement coats.
Add a Sensible Buffer
Real-world coverage depends on substrate, texture and technique. To avoid running short, measure your area and add a 10–15 % buffer for edges, cut-ins and normal wastage.
Standard surfaces: area × 1.10 Tiled/irregular/edge-heavy: area × 1.15

Tips for Achieving Stated Coverage
- Prep properly: fill joints, level and prime to reduce absorption and drag.
- Consistent mixing: follow the specified resin-to-powder ratio.
- Thin, even coats: heavy application reduces coverage and can cause drying issues.
- Edges & details: allow extra for corners, reveals, sockets and cut-outs.
- Work within the window: observe temperature/humidity guidance for best results.
