The Bald Builders Take on Microcement in Newcastle: A Memorable Learning Experience

Last year, The Bald Builders embarked on an exciting new adventure by teaming up with Lee, the business owner of Ardour, for a hands-on microcement course in Newcastle. It was a two-day learning experience packed with knowledge, skill-building, and a bit of fun. What started as a professional development opportunity quickly turned into an unforgettable trip with lots of laughs, teamwork, and valuable lessons.

A Fresh Skill to Add to the Toolbelt

The Bald Builders have always been about pushing boundaries, and this course was no exception. Microcement—also known by other names like micro screed, micro render, micro concrete, or micro topping—is a thin, versatile cement-based coating that can be applied to a wide range of surfaces. It’s gaining popularity in the world of design and construction because of its sleek, seamless finish and adaptability.

Over two days, the team immersed themselves in the techniques behind applying microcement, from preparation to application. With Lee’s guidance, they learned how to handle the materials, master the technique, and work with precision. It was a perfect opportunity for The Bald Builders to add a new skill to their already impressive repertoire.

A Big Thank You to Lee and Ardour Surface design

The Bald Builders would like to take a moment to express their gratitude to Lee from Ardour. Not only did Lee provide expert instruction throughout the course, but he also opened the door to a whole new world of possibilities with microcement. Thanks to his expertise and patience, the team walked away with a new skill set and a deeper appreciation for the potential of this innovative material.

Learning something new is always exciting, but it’s even better when you have a supportive mentor and a group of like-minded individuals to share the experience with. Lee’s enthusiasm and passion for his craft made the entire course a memorable one.
