Concrete countertops are a warm natural looking material that
corresponds with the popularity of more natural materials like wood, stone, and
brick.
Chemical stains, coloring pigments, various aggregates, and epoxy coatings can
give concrete the look, texture, and feel of quarried stone such as marble,
granite, and limestone.
Each concrete countertop contractor will have their specialty. It is important
to review samples so you know what you are getting.
Most concrete countertops are cast in a shop where lines and edges can be formed
precisely and the countertop can be cast, cured, and sealed under controlled
conditions.
Concrete countertops will exhibit subtle variations in color and texture, which
most people feel contributes to its beauty. Each slab is hand cast so none will
be exactly identical.
