This is a brief description of the service ...
"The stonelike look and feel of a concrete fireplace surround adds dimension
and excitement to any living space.
A wide range of style options from Old World ornamentation of Baroque or
Victorian to the Spartan lines of Post Modernism gives the homeowner an array of
standard feature choices.
Also, concrete offers the unique role as a strong mediator to bring out the
best features in complementary materials
such as stone, tile or metals; fusing them together in a dramatic marriage of
texture and shape."

And while 18 percent said the primary purpose of their
fireplace is for heat, some 46 percent said the chief function of the
fireplace is for atmosphere.
- I think there are two main reasons people choose concrete: first is the
look. They can look like real stone and are built in few massive pieces,
rather than a dozen pieces cut and mortared. Second, the cost concrete
is significantly less than carved stone or marble slate.

- The benefits are obviously the moldability of the material, lending
itself to inlays, curvature, etc. that would be cost-prohibitive, if not
impossible with standard slab materials.
