Your tile is fine.
That is the problem.
Microcement applied over the tile that came with the house. One continuous surface with no grout lines anywhere in it, no demolition, and nothing torn out of a home you still have to live in.
A finish, not a renovation.
Microcement is a multi-layer system applied by hand, a few millimeters thick, bonded directly to what is already there. Tile, concrete, drywall. It cures into one continuous waterproof surface with no grout lines anywhere in it.
Parkland is newer than almost anywhere else we work, and that changes the conversation. Nothing here is failing. The tile is flat, bonded and perfectly sound, and it is also the same tile as the four houses either side of you. Ripping out a floor that has nothing wrong with it is hard to justify. Going over it is not.
The finish goes on floors, shower walls, curbless pans, feature walls, stairs, ceilings and countertops. Same system, same sealer, same hand.
Nothing is broken. It just looks like everyone else's.
Sound builder tile is the best substrate there is.
Flat, bonded, not hollow. That is exactly what this material wants underneath it, and it is why a nine-year-old house quotes better than a fifty-year-old one.
There are no grout lines. Anywhere.
Which matters more in a house with children in it than it does anywhere else. There is no joint for anything to sit in, and the floor cleans in one pass.
It goes where tile will not follow.
Feature walls, stair risers, ceilings, curved niches, a powder room done floor to ceiling in one tone. Tile needs a joint every twelve inches. This needs none.
The house stays livable.
No demolition phase means no week of noise and dust with the family still in the house. Your written estimate carries the actual day count for your scope.
Most Parkland jobs start as one room and turn into three, because the finish in the first room makes the tile in the next one look like a decision somebody else made.
Drag to watch the tile disappear.
No demolition, no new plumbing, no tile torn out. Microcement applied directly over the existing surface.
Drag the handle, or use the left and right arrow keys.
Want the number for your room?
The calculator asks for square footage and which surfaces you are doing, then emails you a real range in about a minute. You get it in writing without talking to anyone first.

Parkland, and everything around it.
Michael is based in Deerfield Beach and runs every project personally. Parkland is a straight run west, and we are in these communities regularly.
Not on the list? Ask. If it is between Miami and Palm Beach the answer is almost always yes.
We also work in Coral Springs, Boca Raton, Weston, Pompano Beach and Delray Beach.
The man who teaches this system
leads your project.
Monarch was founded by Michael Daniels, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran and one of the first certified ForCrete installers in the country. He trains new applicators for ForCrete Americas, and he leads every Monarch project personally alongside a crew he trained himself.
He lives in Deerfield Beach and works from Miami up through Palm Beach. When you call about your Parkland project, you talk to him.
Book a free consultationWhat it costs.
Pricing runs on square footage and on which system the surface needs, and the surface decides that, not us. A shower that gets wet every day is a different build from a feature wall.
There is a calculator on the home page that gives you a real range in about a minute, and it emails you the breakdown so you have it in writing. It is a range, honestly labeled as one. The firm number comes after somebody stands in the room.
Preparation, primer, mesh, base coats, color coats, sealer and labor are all in the figure.
The deposit reserves your dates. The balance is due once the finish coats are complete, before the final sealer goes on.

What does microcement cost?
Every project is custom, so pricing depends on surface area, existing conditions and the finish you select. Bathroom projects begin around $6,000, and most full bathrooms land between $6,000 and $18,000 depending on total surface area. Larger floor, wall and ceiling installations typically run $18 to $24 per square foot of total surface area. You get exact numbers after a short consultation.
Can it go over my existing tile?
In most cases, yes. Microcement is applied over existing surfaces like tile, concrete and drywall, which usually means no demolition and no mess. The surface does need to be sound and stable, so we confirm the condition at the site visit before anything is scheduled.
Is it really waterproof?
Yes. The system we install is fully waterproof once the primer and layers are in place, which is what makes it suitable for showers, bathrooms and other wet areas. Bathrooms are one of our most common projects.
Will it crack?
The system we install is an epoxy-based microcement, so unlike air-cured products there is no shrinkage as it cures, and it has very high tensile and compression strength. It will not fix a substrate that is unstable or damp underneath, which is exactly what gets checked before a number is written down.
How many days will you be in my house?
A single bathroom is typically 6 to 8 days on site. A multi-room project, or all the floors in a home, usually runs 8 to 12 days. A whole home is 2 to 4 weeks. Because the finish goes over the existing surface there is no demolition phase, so the schedule is short and predictable.
Do you actually work in Parkland?
Yes. Michael is based in Deerfield Beach and runs every project personally from Miami up through Palm Beach, Parkland included. If your street is not on the list above, ask. The answer is almost always yes.
Still deciding?
Answer a few questions about your room, then pick a time. Thirty minutes on the phone with Michael, who gives you real numbers rather than a guess. If it looks like a fit, he comes out and measures in person before anything is booked.
Salt air, humidity, and a slab that moves.
South Florida is unkind to finishes. Humidity changes how material cures, coastal buildings carry salt in the air, and what is under your tile is not always what the plans said it was.
The system we install is epoxy-based, so it does not shrink as it cures. Air-cured microcements do, and that is where hairline cracking usually comes from. It will not fix a substrate that is unstable, cracked or damp underneath, which is exactly what gets checked before a number is written down rather than discovered halfway through.
Michael is a certified ForCrete installer, one of the first in the United States, and trains new applicators for ForCrete Americas. The material is not sold to anyone without that certification. On your job he is the one holding the trowel.
