Cleaning

– Flooring removal and preparation works generate dust. Microcement Services NSW uses dust extraction equipment wherever reasonably possible and will sweep and vacuum the immediate work area upon completion.

– Cleaning of areas outside the work zone, including bathrooms, ceilings, lights, windows, walls, furniture, mirrors, and other surfaces, is the customer’s responsibility. Microcement Services NSW is a removal service, not a professional cleaning service, and customers are strongly encouraged to isolate areas not being worked on.

– Waste will be removed and disposed of unless a skip bin is required. Post-work cleaning is limited to basic sweeping and vacuuming of the worked areas only.

– Any additional or specialised cleaning required is the responsibility of the customer. It is recommended that a professional cleaner be engaged following major renovation or demolition works, at the owner’s expense.

This includes, but is not limited to, additional furniture, stairs, wardrobes, additional flooring systems, coatings, subfloor preparation or additional services requested or required on-site.

– If the client fails to provide agreed site requirements (including electricity, skip bins, generators, or equipment transport) and this causes delays, additional fees will apply.

– Once a quote is finalised and accepted, the price cannot be reduced. Incorrect measurements, partial removal by the client, or faster-than-expected completion do not entitle the client to a price reduction or discount.

Payment Plans

– Microcement Services NSW may offer payment plans in cases of unforeseen financial hardship, subject to approval. Where approved, payment plans generally consist of one (1) initial down payment followed by four (4) repayments over 28 days.

In the event of a missed payment, late payment fees will be waived, and the account may be immediately escalated to a debt collection agency.

Detailed Work

– If you have things such as office furniture that is built over a flooring system, such as but not limited to carpet.

(Potential extra charges may apply)

Defects

– The customer must inspect the services upon completion and notify Microcement Services NSW in writing of any alleged defect, shortage, damage, or failure to comply with the quotation or description within two (2) days of completion. The customer must allow Microcement Services NSW a reasonable opportunity to inspect the services where a defect is alleged.

– Where Microcement Services NSW agrees in writing that the customer is entitled to rectification, liability is limited to rectifying the defective services.

Fire Alarms

– Flooring removal and concrete works generate dust that may activate fire alarms. Where alarms are triggered due to the customer’s failure to isolate them, the customer is responsible for any fines, call-out fees, or charges imposed by emergency responders. The customer is also responsible for ensuring that relevant occupants or residents within the building are informed that fire alarms have been isolated.

Job Completion

– Upon completion of the works, the customer (or a nominated representative) should be on site to participate in the Job Completion Walkthrough with our on-site supervisor to inspect the work before the team leaves for the day.

If the customer is not present at completion, the works will be deemed completed to a satisfactory standard and approved for invoicing.

– The customer is responsible for covering, protecting, and isolating all areas, surfaces, and items that may be affected by dust or debris prior to our team’s arrival. Microcement Services NSW is not liable for cleaning costs or damage resulting from the customer’s failure to adequately protect these areas.

Customer Complaints

(a) rising damp or slab moisture;
(b) hydrostatic pressure;
(c) plumbing leaks or flooding;
(d) waterproofing defects;
(e) poor drainage or ventilation;
(f) humidity changes before or after application.

Moisture Testing (If Performed) – Point-in-Time Only
– Any moisture testing performed is indicative only at the time and location tested.
– It does not guarantee future moisture behaviour and does not certify suitability for all microcement systems or environments.

Not a Waterproofing System Unless Expressly Quoted
– Microcement is not a waterproofing membrane unless a specific waterproofing system is expressly quoted, applied, and documented as part of the scope.
– Wet areas require compliant waterproofing beneath microcement unless otherwise stated in writing.

Environmental Conditions Affect Results
– Temperature, humidity, airflow, ventilation, and sunlight affect curing, colour development, sealing performance, and final appearance.
– Variations caused by environmental conditions are not defects.

Slip Resistance & Safety Disclaimer
– Slip resistance of microcement surfaces varies depending on texture, sealer selection, contaminants (water, oils, soaps), footwear, and maintenance.
– Microcement Services NSW does not warrant that any surface is slip-proof or suitable for specific safety ratings unless expressly agreed in writing.
– The Client acknowledges responsibility for assessing suitability for their intended use.

Chemical Resistance & Staining Limitations
– Sealers provide resistance to staining and chemicals but do not render microcement immune to damage.
– Acids, solvents, oils, dyes, harsh cleaners, and prolonged exposure to liquids may cause staining, etching, or discolouration and are not defects.

Point Loads, Impact & Indentation
– Microcement is a thin applied coating system and is not designed to withstand excessive point loads or impact.
– Damage caused by furniture legs, appliances, heels, ladders, scaffolding, or dropped objects is not covered under warranty.

Curing, Sealing & Protection Requirements (Strict)
– The Client must comply with all curing, sealing, protection, and access restrictions advised by Microcement Services NSW.
– Premature foot traffic, cleaning, washing, exposure to water, trades access, or furniture placement may permanently damage the finish and void warranty.

Early Use / Accelerated Timelines Void Responsibility
– If the Client requests early use, accelerated curing, or reduced protection periods, Microcement Services NSW is not responsible for resulting defects, and warranty is void to the extent permitted by law.

Contamination & Damage After Completion
– Microcement Services NSW is not responsible for damage caused by:
(a) other trades;
(b) cleaners or chemicals;
(c) abrasive traffic;
(d) furniture dragging;
(e) impact damage;
(f) incorrect maintenance or cleaning products.

Cleaning Products & Third-Party Cleaning
– The Client is responsible for ensuring only approved cleaning products and methods are used.
– Damage caused by cleaners, contractors, or maintenance providers engaged by the Client is not covered under warranty.

Maintenance Obligations (Ongoing)
– Microcement requires ongoing maintenance appropriate to the sealing system used.
– Failure to follow maintenance guidelines may result in staining, wear, or deterioration and is not covered under warranty.

Repairs, Patching & Visual Matching
– Any future repairs, patching, or modifications may remain visible.
– Perfect colour or texture matching of repairs is not guaranteed and is not a defect.

External, Wet Area & High-Exposure Use
– Microcement used in wet areas or external environments is subject to increased wear and environmental stress.
– Reduced lifespan, increased maintenance, and aesthetic change are expected characteristics and are not defects.

Workmanship Warranty – Scope & Limits
– Any workmanship warranty applies only to the application of the microcement system.
– Warranty does not cover:
(a) substrate movement or cracking;
(b) moisture-related issues;
(c) normal wear and tear;
(d) colour or texture variation;
(e) damage by others;
(f) misuse, neglect, or improper maintenance.

Warranty Claim Procedure (Strict)
– Any suspected issue must be reported in writing immediately upon discovery and before any repairs, resealing, grinding, cleaning, or modifications occur.
– Microcement Services NSW must be given reasonable access to inspect.
– Works carried out by others before inspection may void the claim.

Deemed Acceptance Upon Use (Very Strong)
– Use of the surface, reopening to foot traffic, exposure to water, or occupation of the area constitutes acceptance of the finish.
– No claims relating to appearance, texture, colour, or finish will be accepted after the surface has been put into use.

Not Engineering or Waterproofing Advice
– Microcement Services NSW does not provide structural engineering, building certification, or waterproofing design advice unless expressly agreed in writing.

Australian Consumer Law
– Nothing in these Microcement-specific terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any consumer guarantees or rights that cannot legally be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law.
– Where liability can be lawfully limited, it is limited to the extent permitted by law.
