Microcement Bathroom Over Tile in West Hollywood, Los Angeles
This Rising Glen project focused on updating existing bathrooms without the disruption of demolition, using a seamless microcement system applied directly over porcelain tile.
The goal was to modernize the space while keeping the project efficient in both time and cost.
Design Approach
The client wanted a clean, modern bathroom without the complexity of removing existing tile and rebuilding the space.
We proposed a seamless system that would unify all surfaces while maintaining a controlled construction process.
The focus was on simplicity, continuity, and durability.
Application & Process
Working over tile requires proper preparation to ensure long-term performance.
Our system included:
Mesh reinforcement over existing tile
Quartz-based primer on drywall surfaces
2.5 coats of Concretta for a smooth, continuous finish
3–4 coats of sealer for waterproofing and protection
Each step was critical in creating a stable surface that could handle moisture and daily use.
What We’ve Seen on This Project
Not all tile surfaces are suitable for overlay systems. Proper evaluation is necessary before moving forward.
When conditions are right, this approach significantly reduces construction time and avoids the complications that come with demolition and debris removal.
Result
The bathrooms were transformed into seamless, modern spaces without visible joints or transitions.
The finish feels integrated rather than applied, giving the space a more architectural quality while keeping the process efficient.
