Stone, Block & Brickwork
Yes, this is essentially the same as Masonry.

Concrete Counters & Hearths
As with Stone, Block & Brickwork, this category does fall under Masonry. However, we list it as an additional category, to ensure that homeowners are aware that we offer this service, as not all masons know how, or have the equipment to pour concrete counters & hearths. And don't be fooled into thinking that grey is the only color a concrete counter can come in, we have a wide variety of options, acid stains and additives available, to make your pieces unique. Not to mention the finishes, set ins and edgings we can incorporate into your pieces.
We typically cast all counters on-site. It is nearly indestructible and only falters when it comes in contact with butter or oil, on a regular basis, which is why we recommend setting in granite or marble slabs, for your pastry stations in the kitchen.
