CMCT PE - Custom Made Concrete Tops

•CMCT - PE makes concrete products for kitchens, bathrooms, fireplace mantles, furniture, house signs and anywhere else custom concrete is required. Horizontal countertops must be at least ±39mm thick. CMCT - PE can make thicker countertops as well as fabricate front edge returns up to 100mm deep.

•Concrete countertops can be straight, curved, notched, multi-level, etc. Unlike granite, which would drastically increase in cost for curved shapes, creating curved concrete shapes simply involves some extra complexity and labor in forming.

•Concrete can also be used in vertical applications such as backsplashes, shower surrounds and fireplace surrounds. For vertical applications, concrete is generally ±39mm thick.

•Maximum slab length for standard depth countertops is usually 2.5m, but can be longer. Seams are located around sinks and cooktops, or wherever required for structural reasons. CMCT - PE will work with you to design seam placement that is both structurally sound and aesthetically pleasing. Seams are typically 2mm wide, similar to tile grout lines. However, it is important to realize that concrete countertops are hand-made and hand processed; they are not machine cut, so tolerances for seams are more generous than with granite. Seam appearance is minimized by using color-matched acrylic caulk.

•Integral and vessel sinks are possible. See the section on sinks for more information.

•Concrete countertops can be used both indoors and outdoors.
