The Beauty and Durability of Microcement Waterproof Plaster Showers
At California Wall Design, we're redefining modern shower finishes with our expertly applied microcement waterproof plaster systems. These seamless, elegant surfaces are not only stunning but also built to last. Perfect for bathrooms, showers, and wet areas, microcement offers a sleek, organic aesthetic with zero grout lines.
Microcement is a cement-based coating applied by hand in thin layers over a prepared substrate. Once sealed, it becomes completely waterproof, mold-resistant, and easy to maintain. With proper application, it can last for decades while maintaining a refined, contemporary appearance.
We follow a meticulous multi-layer process that includes:
Scratch coat and brown coat substrate prep
Reinforced fiberglass mesh embedded in a leveling coat
Two coats of microcement applied by hand with a trowel
2-Part Polyurethane Sealer – This is the key to waterproofing.
The sealer we use is a professional-grade, two-component polyurethane system that:
Forms a durable, hydrophobic membrane
Protects the surface from daily moisture exposure and chemical cleaners
Leaves a natural matte or satin finish, depending on your desired look
We proudly use products from some of the best names in the plaster and microcement industry:
Vasari Plaster – Renowned for its natural lime-based finishes
Earthus Plasters – High-performance, earthy coatings with a soulful aesthetic
Texston – An industry leader in decorative plasters and microcement systems
Meoded Paint & Plaster – A favorite for their premium lime and acrylic plasters
We also work with select products like:
Conretta – A smooth cementitious surface system perfect for refined finishes
Golmex – A durable concrete-look plaster used in modern design applications
Each brand brings something special to the table, and we select the right system based on the specific needs of the project.
Our microcement showers come in a wide range of tones and textures—from smooth minimalist greys to warm, earthy taupes. No two projects are ever the same. Whether you're designing a modern spa-like retreat or a rustic Mediterranean bath, we can customize the finish to suit your style.
