The choice of a worktop is crucial to the overall impression your kitchen makes: second only to the cabinets, the worktop design has the potential to define the whole space. In the recent years, the choice of worktop materials has expanded significantly and a huge selection is now available for all budgets. A polished concrete worktop can become a striking feature in your kitchen.
Concrete is one of the most versatile worktop materials, combining the characteristics of natural stone with the ability to be moulded into a shape of your choice and is thus sometimes referred to as “liquid stone”. Kitchen worktops made of concrete tend to have an industrial look and naturally fit within contemporary décor schemes, but in addition to the most popular range of natural white, pale grey and dark grey stone worktop finishes, we can use a huge range of pigments to make our concrete kitchen worktops in any colour of your choice: the options to co-ordinate your concrete worktop with other furniture and fittings are limitless.
One of the biggest advantages of concrete is its durability, and once sealed it becomes largely water and stain resistant. Similarly to most natural stone surfaces, with basic care (e.g. prompt mopping of spillages) you can maintain the look for many years. With age, concrete acquires a certain patina, just as many other natural materials do.
Handmade and hand-finished, concrete can be shaped, moulded and trimmed to perfectly fit the space you have and any additional requirements, for example a kitchen design that includes an integral sink or a space for one being fitted, draining board and any designs for taps. To complement our polished concrete kitchen worktops, we also make splashbacks, sinks, custom-designed furniture and furniture elements (eg tabletops or bartops) as well as flooring and wall tiles and panels.
We offer our polished concrete worktops in a range of finishes from matte/lightly polished to highly polished gloss. Unlike composite stone worktops or natural stone worktops, concrete kitchen worktops can be personalised by being inlaid with elements of your choice – from pebbles and small stones to shells, tiles, pieces of glass and even personal heirlooms. This adds character and interest and can make for a totally unique surface.
As with any custom-made product, the price depends on your requirements. To get an estimate for our polished concrete worktops cost, or to ask any questions, get in touch with Stonemade using our contact form.
