Lavasteen Seamless Floor
epoxy, waterproof, slip-resistant.

Lavasteen is by far the best material for wet floors (bathroom, shower, toilet). Also an excellent choice in kitchens and living rooms due to its thickness and durability — just slightly more robust than microcement.

Lavasteen is available in 20 standard colours with names that reference nature — Sea Shell, Hill Flower, Morning Dew, Hazel, Wool. For exact colour matching, NCS and RAL are available on request, with additional time for mixing and testing.

The granular structure of Lavasteen creates a subtle texture that takes on its own character in every lighting situation. Not a flat colour — something that breathes.

Lavasteen is available per bucket in all 20 standard colours. For self-application, also tool sets, primer, PU topcoat and individual components.

Both products deliver a seamless, mineral aesthetic. But they differ fundamentally in build-up and suitability. This overview helps you choose:

The practical rule: microcement for walls, Lavasteen Seamless Floor for floors — especially in bathrooms and showers. Both work perfectly alongside each other in the same space (same colour family) for a seamless result from floor to ceiling.

Bathroom floor

The core application. Epoxy is intrinsically waterproof — even if the PU topcoat is damaged by a dropped object (perfume bottle, hairdryer). A microcement floor would suffer consequential damage: moisture penetrates the mineral beneath. Not with Lavasteen. See also Lavasteen in the bathroom for the complete application page.

Walk-in shower and shower floor

The combination of waterproof + anti-slip makes Lavasteen ideal for shower floors. The natural granular structure (finely ground volcanic lava stone) keeps the surface safe when wet. No joints where limescale or mould can accumulate — one continuous finish, easy to clean with pH-neutral cleaner.

Toilet floor

In a cloakroom there is less water than in a bathroom, but splashes do occur around the WC. Lavasteen handles this effortlessly, especially in smaller spaces where use is intensive per m². The 1-2 mm thickness rarely requires adjustment to thresholds or door swing.

Living room and open-plan kitchens

Not just for wet rooms — Lavasteen works perfectly on large living room floors if you want an industrial, mineral aesthetic without joints. Combines beautifully with timber frames, natural stone elements or a fireplace. For living rooms we often use warmer tones such as Linnen, Mushroom or Sea Shell.

Commercial: showroom, office, retail

The combination of wear-resistant + waterproof + design appearance makes Lavasteen suitable for commercial spaces. Showrooms and shops choose it for the premium look. Restaurants or cafés for the hygiene (no joints = easy to clean).

Underfloor heating — perfect combination

Lavasteen Seamless Floor conducts heat well thanks to its relatively thin build-up (1-2 mm). In new-build with low-temperature underfloor heating it combines excellently — rapid warm-up, high efficiency. With existing concrete floors with underfloor heating, check moisture content (max 2%) before application.

Our showroom is located in The Hague-Ypenburg (Laan van 's-Gravenmade 42L). From here, installers work throughout the entire Randstad-South and wider region. Local advice pages per city:

The Hague · Delft · Rotterdam · Leiden · Westland · Rijswijk · Zoetermeer · Pijnacker-Nootdorp · Leidschendam-Voorburg · Wassenaar

For other locations, request a no-obligation consultation — we work throughout the Netherlands and Belgium on projects from approximately 15 m².

What does a Lavasteen Seamless Floor cost per m²?

For DIY kits we start at approximately €235 per 5 m² bucket (~€47 per m²). For professional installation by our contractors it typically ranges between €90 and €150 per m², depending on substrate, colour and surface area. A complete bathroom floor of 6 m² therefore costs between €540 (DIY material) and €900 (professionally installed).

How long does it take to install a Lavasteen Seamless Floor?

A typical bathroom floor (5–10 m²) is installed in 2 working days, including drying time between layers. After installation, a further 7 days of full curing for maximum durability — walking is possible after 24 hours, intensive use after one week.

Does Lavasteen work on an existing tiled floor?

Yes. Existing tiles do not need to be removed. We degrease them, fill the joints, level any unevenness and apply Lavasteen directly on top. No demolition = no noise, no skip, no weeks without a bathroom. Our 1–2 mm thickness rarely requires adjustment to thresholds or door swing — we assess this beforehand during the site survey.

Is a Lavasteen Seamless Floor suitable for allergy-prone families?

Yes — no joints where dust and house dust mites can accumulate. Easy to keep clean daily with a damp cloth or vacuum cleaner. No carpet off-gassing. For asthmatic or allergic families often a better choice than carpet or laminate-with-seams.

What if I get a scratch or damage?

Minor scratches on the PU topcoat: we touch those up by reapplying locally — virtually invisible thanks to the matte natural finish. Deeper damage into the Lavasteen layer: less straightforward but still repairable via local reapplication. The epoxy base is intrinsically waterproof, so one small scratch does not require immediate repair — no risk of consequential damage as with a microcement floor.

Can I request colour samples before I decide?

Yes. We send up to 3 physical colour samples so you can assess them in your own lighting conditions — Lavasteen colours look different in daylight than under LED spotlights, and only on-site will you truly see how it works out. Request colour samples.

Which Lavasteen colour is most popular?

At present customers most frequently ask for Linnen (warm soft-grey, suits any space), Sea Shell (light creamy-white shade) and Mushroom (warmer beige with grey tones). Popular for The Hague seaside neighbourhoods: Sea Shell and Sea Kale — reassuringly neutral tones. For more industrial style: Graphite, Shiitake or Reindeer Moss.
