The service
Modern kitchen surfaces without the upheaval
Microcement is a thin, hand-applied cement-based coating that is built up in layers and sealed. In a kitchen, it can run across the floor, up the walls, along the splashback and over worktops and islands, creating the clean, joint-free look you see in architectural homes.
Because Allan's microcement can be applied over almost any sound existing surface, including existing tiles, you can often refresh a kitchen without tearing out every surface first. That means less dust in the heart of your home and less time eating takeaways while the work is done.
Allan Anderson owns the business and carries out every installation himself. If your kitchen project also needs units moved, worktops removed or plumbing changed, he ties in with trusted joiners and plumbers so everything happens in the right order.
Who it's for
Homeowners refreshing or renovating a kitchen, open-plan extensions, and cafés or restaurants needing durable, wipe-clean surfaces.
When it's needed
When splashback tiles are dated, worktops look tired, a new extension needs a continuous floor, or you want a modern look without a full rebuild.
Why use a specialist
Kitchens see heat, spills and heavy use. Correct preparation, layering and sealing by an approved applicator is what keeps the surface performing.
What it costs to wait
Dated kitchens cost you every day
The kitchen is the most-used room in most homes. Grubby grout, chipped tiles and worn worktops make it harder to keep clean and make the whole home feel older than it is.
Grout that never looks clean
Splashback and floor grout absorb grease and food stains. Once discoloured, it rarely comes back no matter how much you scrub.
Expensive full refits
Leaving a tired kitchen too long often pushes people into a full replacement, when a surface refresh could have transformed it.
Broken flow in open-plan spaces
Mismatched floors between kitchen and living areas make an extension feel disjointed instead of one generous space.
Common mistakes to avoid
- × Ripping out sound tiles when they could have been used as a base.
- × Choosing a finish without seeing a sample next to your cabinet doors and worktop.
- × Not discussing how heat, spills and cleaning products will be handled day to day.
- × Booking joinery, plumbing and finishing separately with no one managing the order.
- × Assuming microcement can only be used on floors.

In detail
Microcement kitchens in detail
From splashbacks to open-plan floors, here's how microcement is used in kitchens across Glasgow and West and Central Scotland.
Floors that flow
A microcement floor runs without joints from kitchen to dining and living areas, which makes open-plan rooms and extensions feel larger. Because the coating is thin, it can help avoid awkward level changes between rooms. See our microcement floors page for more detail.
Splashbacks and walls
Splashbacks are where microcement often makes the biggest difference. It can go over existing sound tiles, removing grout lines in the area that gets the most splashes. The result is a clean surface that's simple to wipe down.
Walls can be finished in the same colour as the floor for a minimal look, or in a contrasting tone to frame the units.
Worktops and islands
Microcement worktops and island cladding give a solid, sculptural look. Worktops need extra attention to sealing because of food, heat and cleaning. Allan explains care and use at the consultation. Our worktops and splashbacks page covers this in more depth.
The Cimentart system
As a fully approved Cimentart applicator, Allan uses the manufacturer's full system: preparation, primer, base layers, finishing layers and sealer. Each part plays a role in how the finish bonds, wears and resists everyday kitchen use.
Residential and commercial kitchens
In homes, microcement suits everything from compact Glasgow flats to large extensions in Newton Mearns, Bearsden and Stirling. In cafés, bars and restaurants, joint-free surfaces help with cleaning routines and give front-of-house areas a premium finish.
Commercial use is discussed at the site visit so the finish suits the traffic and cleaning regime of the space.

Working with Glasgow Microcement
What to expectfrom first call to handover
Glasgow Microcement LTD is owned and run by Allan Anderson, a specialist applicator of decorative finishes. There is no sales team and no subcontracting of the finish itself: the person who visits your property, measures up and talks through samples is the same person who applies your microcement kitchens finish.
Allan is a fully approved Cimentart microcement applicator and a fully approved Infinity Effects spray granite applicator. Approval means the materials are applied the way the manufacturer intends: preparation, layering and protection all follow the system rather than shortcuts.
When a project needs more than a finish, such as a new shower, a moved sink, trimmed doors or boxed-in pipework, Allan ties in directly with trusted plumbers and joiners. You get one point of contact who plans the order of work, so trades are not left waiting on each other and nothing falls between the gaps.
Free, no-obligation site visit
Allan comes to your home or premises, checks the existing surfaces and explains honestly what is and is not suitable before any quote is agreed.
Physical sample boards
Colours and textures look different under Scottish daylight and your own lighting. Samples let you see and touch the finish where it will actually live.
A clear written quote
Every project is priced individually after the visit, so you know exactly what is included before you commit. No guide prices are given without seeing the job.
£3 million public liability insurance
Work is carried out with £3M public liability cover in place, for homes and commercial properties alike.
Planned working hours
Monday to Friday 7:30am–5pm and Saturday 8am–12pm. This is planned, booked work rather than an emergency call-out service.
West and Central Scotland
Based in Glasgow and covering Lanarkshire, Renfrewshire, East Kilbride, Ayrshire, Paisley, Stirling and the towns in between.
