Microcement flooring in Canada
Microcement flooring, without the grout lines.
SEMCO X-Bond creates hand-trowelled, seamless floors for Canadian homes, retail, hospitality, workplaces, and select exterior spaces.
A floor that lets the space breathe
One continuous surface. Made by hand.
X-Bond Microcement gives a room a calm, architectural foundation. Its hand-trowelled movement replaces repeated tile patterns and grout joints, so the whole space feels considered.
Renovating? Suitable existing tile and concrete can often be prepared and covered instead of removed. At about 1/8 inch thick, the system transforms the floor without unnecessary demolition.
Why designers choose it
Thin build. Natural movement. A floor shaped by hand.
Microcement floor projects
Residential floors, retail spaces, pool decks, and more.
Every X-Bond floor is mixed and trowelled by hand. Colour, movement, and sheen are developed around the light, scale, and daily life of the space.
Where X-Bond flooring belongs
Built for everyday rooms and demanding spaces.
The system is selected around the surface underneath, the traffic above it, and the conditions the finished floor needs to handle.
Homes and open plans
Bring kitchens, living areas, hallways, bedrooms, and stairs together with one calm, continuous floor.
Retail and hospitality
Create a distinctive hand-finished surface for shops, restaurants, hotels, studios, and workplaces.
Thoughtful renovations
Transform suitable existing tile or concrete after assessment, often without the mess and delay of full removal.
Wet and exterior areas
Build bathrooms, pool surrounds, and selected exterior floors with the specified SEMCO waterproofing and sealer system.
The complete flooring system
We match every layer to the floor.
Before work starts, the installer checks the existing surface, moisture, traffic, water exposure, and every transition. Preparation, waterproofing where required, X-Bond, and the final sealer are then specified as one complete system.

Common questions
Microcement flooring questions, answered.
What is microcement flooring?
Microcement is a thin, hand-applied surface that creates the look and movement of mineral concrete without the thickness of a traditional concrete slab. X-Bond is SEMCO's original microcement system, developed for seamless floors, walls, wet rooms, and architectural details.
Can X-Bond go over existing tile or concrete floors?
Yes, in many renovations. If the tile or concrete is sound, stable, dry, and suitable for preparation, X-Bond can often be installed over it instead of removing it. The installer confirms the condition of the floor before specifying the system.
Is microcement flooring suitable for kitchens and commercial spaces?
Yes. The SEMCO system is matched to the expected traffic and daily use, then protected with the appropriate sealer. X-Bond is used in homes, shops, restaurants, hospitality spaces, and workplaces.
Can microcement be used in bathrooms, around pools, or outdoors?
Yes. Wet and exterior areas are built as a complete, project-specific system with the required preparation, SEMCO Liquid Membrane, detailing, and sealer. We review the conditions before recommending the right build.
How do I care for an X-Bond floor?
Routine care is straightforward: remove grit, clean with a suitable pH-neutral cleaner, and avoid harsh abrasives. Sealer maintenance is based on traffic and wear, helping the floor keep its protection and appearance over time.
