Cost: wall microcement
Request covering and removal as alternatives if unsure about retaining the existing finish. Compare totals including preparation and junctions. No local average, automatic premium over béton ciré or fixed saving per square metre is established here.
Editorial update on 19 September 2026
Covering versus removal
For each option identify base assessment, possible removal, waste, levelling and application. Define circumstances that would rule out covering. Saved removal may be offset by preparation or adaptations; compare quoted totals.
Count interfaces
List returns, corners, niches, boundaries and equipment requiring removal and refitting. Specify measured area and separately priced details. Identical unit rates do not establish identical operations.
Check system and schedule
Itemise references, work, sample, access, protection, cleaning and taxes. Separate working time from waiting before use. Do not apply the same assumed drying period to every layer or product.
