DIY Concrete Countertops

We poured our own white concrete countertops and they turned out beautiful! I'm breaking down the project step by step for you in this video tutorial. Check out the blog post with tool and material links.

You make pouring concrete countertops easy, it looks really nice and clean, goes nicely with your cabinets. Thank you for sharing your talent for making things with us, you rock.

Those countertop forms are SO neat! Never knew that was a product!

woah ive seen alot of diy videos, but your one is PERFECTION!! straight to the point and very enjoyable to watch!

Beautiful! I’ve always thought about creating a concrete countertop, but have shied away from the complexity involved. The method you used looks very doable, though. It would be interesting to see a one year review of this project about how it has held up and how satisfied your are with the performance of your countertop.

Concrete countertops will always have a special place in my heart 🥹 These turned out great!

That’s a lot of work, now I understand why it so expensive (in Flipping houses TV shows).
I think the imperfections and the odd spots make it unique and stylish.
Great work.

Love how you do this with your dad. It ended up looking very good. We recently renovated our kitchen with a service and we were able to get pretty good results. Can’t wait to see new videos. ❤

Looks nice! Maybe you could make a follow up video on the counter top. I would be interested in seeing how it looks after a year. I mean are there any stains or cracks? How does the coating hold up against the typical kitchen stains (water, oil, red wine ^^ ) cheers, Michael

Looks gorgeous. Never believe it's a diy

I would have done a 1/4” to 1/2” plywood underlayment atop the cabinets and then attached the rockboard. This would ensure the sink weight, when it has water in it will be strong and it won’t deflect or stress the concrete top and possibly cause cracking/ spalling. If the cabinets are 33” tall then you need a full 3” top to get to 36” finished height.

Beautiful job, I love your white concrete countertops. Thx for your excellent tutorial. You've convinced me I can maybe do this! On a wing & a prayer.

Your videos have helped me grow as a person.

Amazing work, im sorry I have a concern though that with this system it seems people aren't pitting any reinforcement in the thinnest bit of concrete, a little piece of 10 m rebar, it comes in fiberglass now as well, across that bit in front of the sink or in other videos was a range top. That's a small brittle bit that needs something

Love this tutorial and the vacation rental came out brilliant!

great job, I've found that vibration is a key to a great concrete countertop, you can carefully use a reciprocating saw without a blade as makeshift concrete vibrator. Also to have a finish without any voids even super small one, concrete topping can be used after the first pass of sanding/polishing with 60/80 grid.

Your countertops came out beautifully!

This is exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks for posting. I'm so fortunate to have your video popping up on my feed when I just started thinking of making something like this.

omg. This is so nice. The imperfections are the ones that make it beautiful

THANK YOU. The kinda step by step I live for. Appreciate you for sharing!! I make neon signs and didn't realize the process of redoing a counter top could be something i could build like i do my signs. Star dust sprinkle of celebration happening in my brain. :)
