Many people have never heard of concrete overlays for countertops and have questions about how their new countertops will be constructed. This is a step by step explanation about how your new countertops will be created and how in just a few days a professional can transform your kitchen from out of date and ugly laminate countertops, to beautiful new custom made natural stone look countertops!

Stage 1- Start Photographs- Here are your before photo's of the kitchen. Nothing really wrong with it, but the countertops were old - scratched - and added no life to the room.

Stage 2 - 1st Brush Coat Photographs - The flooring and cabinets are completely masked off. The first of two Brush coats are applied to the countertops. These coats bond to your countertop and provide a profile for the trowel coats.

Stage 3 - 4th coat photo's - All of the edging is now complete and the top coats are troweled on and pulled tight. Once this dries we are ready for color!

Stage 4 - Color photo's - This is when your countertops are colored to your choice. Dark or light, brown, blue, Green, Black... you pick! the coloring is done with different types of stains and colorants.

Final Stage - Finish photo's  - Once the colors dry, a special epoxy base sealer is applied. The countertops dry and start the cure process overnight. The following day all the masking, clean up starts and set up of site organized for the curing process to commence. Once sufficient time has been allowed for the cure process, you may proceed to have your sink installed.
