Hey Megan, Look into GFRC concrete countertops. You can do things with them that regular precast counters can't touch. Gore Design in Tempe Arizona is one of the industry leaders. Check out their stuff it's impressive. BTW I'm not affiliated with Gore in any way. :)

myndenway - the advantage of concrete is you can mold it into any shape - you cannot do the same with granite. Watch some of the form building vids and you can see pretty much skys the limit. also decorative edges, and decorative stone etc look up Cheng's work

You forgot to talk about the most important aspect of it, the cost. Not a thing was mention about it.

Seriously, Meghan; You are about the most adorable girl on YouTube. I admire you as much as your videos.

Thank you. I'm extremely flattered and probably bright red right now.

Nicely done video!

[hammerofharpel]

Last question. What's the cost...on average from low to high considering that it's custom made? Thanks...

[askthedecorator]

It completely depends on who you go to. Each company will have a different price per square foot. Typically, concrete countertops will be a bit pricey, but not much more than granite. Some granite countertops can cost more than concrete. My best advice would be to shop around your area.

[myndenway]

I see no advantage to concrete over granite. If it is about the same price as granite, why not get granite? Concrete's appeal is that it is strong and affordable way to construct structure. But in the case of countertops, it is neither stronger nor cheaper than granite.

[wsdavies]

The advantage is in customizability. You can make concrete any color or thickness with virtually any flat inlays that you want. Plus you can form them to fit your space perfectly. Granite can do none of this. Go to your local granite shop and ask them for a red counter 3 inches think with an integral drainboard and inlaid tiles on the edge and see what they say. Both concrete and granite have their place, but if you want something that fits your design then concrete is your best option.

Meghan, How heavy is this stuff? I mean are we talking heavy or HEAVY?

[askthedecorator]

Concrete is heavy, but not so heavy it will crush your countertops. But honestly, it depends on who you go to. I would ask each concrete installer how they install the concrete countertops and deal with concrete's weight.
