    This backsplash is a dal tile product, it is called split face mosaic. It actually comes In a few different colors of natural stone. As for the countertops these are pour in place concrete countertops with a matte finish sealer. I would suggest you look at a website called concretenetwork.com and search for a local concrete countertop specialist as they are quite labor intensive to complete. Please let me know if I can be of any other assistance.

    Thanks! I found a couple local concrete companies on that website. Do you know if these stain easy or take awhile to dry with water on them? Also, is it best to use a matte sealer or what is the best sealer? Sorry, a lot of questions.

    I have used concrete tops in at least fifteen projects in the past. All of my customer’s absolutely love them. The only issue I have ever experienced with staining was due to hot grease splatter from an electric griddle. Rumor has it that red wine will also take a toll on concrete tops but I have never come across that one. I will also say that water spotting will occur as a glass sits and condensates on the concrete tops for an extended period of time; however it goes away as soon as the water dries completely. I use a sealer called Iron clad on all of my pour in place countertops. Should you decide to use concrete tops it might behoove you to ask some of the local contractors about pour in place tops vs. off site poured tops. They both have advantages and disadvantages. If you’re not able to get the information you need please feel free to give me a shout at 214-477-7443.
