    Concrete countertops are a custom product, designed by artisans.  Concrete is often compared to mainstream materials such as granite and marble.  Concrete is a craft product, hand-created, and unique to each customer. Concrete countertops are typically installed in high-end custom homes, restaurants, retail spaces and offices.


    Sustainability
    Concrete counter tops are a green product and will outlast the life of your home/space.


    Concrete Colors, Edges, Embeds and Inserts:
    One of concrete countertops most appealing attributes is that it can be custom-colored.  Countertops can be blended and modified to get a hue specific to your liking. This makes the color palette nearly limitless! Some of the most popular colors are warm browns, and clean grays. Some homeowners take this attribute to the next level and create very unique custom colors.  

    Adding an edge detail to your concrete countertop can be the difference between having a modern-looking countertop to having an old-world looking countertop. Edge details give a countertop a nice finished look and offer numerous design options.

    What is a countertop embed or inlay? An embed or inlay is an object that is cast into the surface of the counter top or furnishing.  Concrete counter tops can be modified and personalized with an inlay, an object such as a rock, piece of iron, sea shell, custom logo or other decorative item.  Other items that can be either inlay-ed or embedded are pieces of broken glass, tiles, metal, and family heirlooms. Adding objects opens the door to creativity and adds an extra touch of personalization.

    Inserts are small stones or other materials that are mixed throughout the concrete to add interest to a countertop. Often referred to as decorative aggregate, such as colored rock, various semi-precious stones, and glass that can be added to the concrete mix before casting a countertop. When the countertop is then polished, the aggregate is exposed.
