My client couldn't be more pleased. I will definitely collaborate with Josh again on another project. **★★★★★ — Jim Ferri, Aug. 2016** > It's always satisfying to work with a professional, and Josh is one of the best. We retained him to design, fabricate, and install a unique concrete sink in a newly renovated master bathroom. The result was over-the-top. Everyone who has toured our home has been floored by his design and flawless installation (despite many structural issues with the old house). > If you are considering using a concrete design speak with him first. He is an artist who delivers incredible results on-time and on budget. **Comment from Thiel Studios:** > Thanks for the kind words... This was a fun design and I'm glad you were able to trust my vision enough to make the decision to move forward wit it! It was a pleasure working with you and I hope you get to enjoy it for many years to come! **★★★★★ — Joy Caldarella, April 2016** > I feel it was my good fortunate to have met Josh Thiel. > After researching all the options, I knew I wanted a concrete kitchen countertop. Having no personal references/recommendations, I did a "google search" of concrete counters in my area and connected with Thiel Studio Designs. > Josh is a true professional. He is extremely knowledgeable, skilled and has an obvious passion and pride in his design work. He was very easy to work with; he did what he said he was going to do; showed up on time, completed early and stayed within our agreed budget. > Every person who has been in my home since the installation has noticed and complimented the counter. > I LOVE my kitchen counter top! **Comment from Thiel Studios:** > Thanks Joy! It was nice to have somebody who fully appreciated the versatility of concrete and design. I'm glad were able to solve your little "sponge" problem by giving you a truly customized kitchen countertop....with your own sponge niche! We're glad you love it as much as we do! **★★★★★ — dandv99, March 2016** > We have had custom concrete countertops in the past and consider ourselves fairly knowledgeable on the subject. We selected Thiel Studios to fabricate our kitchen countertops based on their strong portfolio as well as seeing some of their local work in person. The tops were installed within one week of deposit which we were thrilled with. The finished project exceeded our (high) expectations! Josh is an artist and certainly at the top of his craft. We look forward to working with him in the near future. **Comment from Thiel Studios:** > Thanks for the kind words Darren! We're happy that we met your high expectations! We hold for high bar for ourselves to make sure we stay focused on the details. Of all the kitchens we've done, yours is one of our favorites! **★★★★★ — jherwick, Feb. 2016** > Josh at Thiel Design Studios created an amazing concrete table for my home in Hawaii. The workmanship and quality of materials used were outstanding. He worked with me on designing and getting the exact table and base that I wanted. The work was completed on time and he packaged it for shipping. I would use him again without question and highly recommend him.. **Comment from Thiel Studios:** > Thanks Jan, we really enjoyed working with you on your table and so glad It made the 3000+ mile voyage! It looks great and so does your view! **★★★★★ — Ashley, Nov. 2015** > Thiel Studio Designs did a fantastic job designing a table that was perfect for my space. They were very professional and patient throughout the process. I was able to take home samples to make sure that I picked the right color concrete. My table looks great and it is durable and very easy to clean. I would certainly use them again! **Comment from Thiel Studios:** > We're glad you're so happy with your new concrete table! And the color you chose was perfect!....it fits the space perfectly! **★★★★★ — Dee-Ann Smith, June 2015** > I will recommend Thiel Studios any day. I love my concrete kitchen countertops. He captured my vision of my island with a water type flow in it. He matched it perfectly. **★★★★★ — chloesummer150, June 2015** > About Josh Thiel of Thiel Studios > Lake Worth, Florida > > I custom-ordered a concrete table top from Josh Thiel to replace a similar concrete top on a reclaimed wood base I had purchased and returned to the store as the top had quickly crazed and cracked. I loved the soft, blue stone look of the table and wanted not only to enlarge it to seat 12, but also to ensure that it would not craze or crack again. I retained the reclaimed teak wood base that I loved for the new table top. After a good deal of research all over the country, I discovered (through many recommendations) a master concrete manufacturer, Josh Thiel of Thiel Studios in Lake Worth, Florida, in my own backyard! Josh is not only one of the nicest people to deal with, but also one of the most talented and integrity-based business people to deal with. After taking copious photos and measurements, he built an enlarged exact copy of my damaged table with metal trims, delivered and installed it on my existing base and showed me how to care for it. Josh also saw that I was struggling to find a way to drill an umbrella hole through a large, heavy teak coffee table and offered to take it and do it for me which he did at no extra cost. Both my new beautiful table and my coffee table are fabulous. The concrete top keeps getting more and more beautiful by the day as Josh said it would. It takes a beating in the southern exposure hot sun and driving rains of Florida and still gets more and more beautiful looking. I can’t say enough about working with Josh and his team at Thiel Studios. He can make any concrete surface for just about any application. I give him my highest recommendation and I don’t offer that level of recommendation very often. WA, Palm Beach, Florida **Comment from Thiel Studios:** > It was a real pleasure working with you and we were more than happy to help you out with your other table even though it's our of our typical work scope. We realize something like altering a new piece of furniture is stressful and difficult as a homeowner to find a way to have it done, but it was very simple for us and we were more than willing to help such a nice person! **★★★★★ — cmjackman, June 2015** > WOW!!!! Is all I can say. I highly recommend Josh Thiel and Thiel Design Studios, Inc., for your next project involving concrete. I am an interior designer and looked up Houzz.com for a resource for a bathroom vanity, that was custom designed. We had a particular look and idea for our space. Upon my first phone call, Josh immediately called and set an appointment up. When we met, we gave him the idea we wanted, and helped us create the custom concrete top and steel base for the bathroom. While it may look simple, there is nothing available on the market readily to purchase. He crafted and created the mold himself, as well as the steel base. He is extremely creative and extremely professional. All of the work was done as promised and with extreme care and attention to detail! Josh is not just a concrete worker, but truly is an artisan. I urge you to contact him if you are in this area, or South Florida. He has a great portfolio, including work for hotels and restaurants. His work ethic, care and attention to detail is above and beyond what we expected. My photos may not due justice to the work. Give him a call! **Comment from Thiel Studios:** > We're so thankful for clients like you! You trusted us to see your vision and work to come up with something that wasn't only beautiful, but functional for your needs! Your rustic environment was a perfect opportunity to not only use concrete, but let us weld and fabricate your custom base to allow for wheelchair access! **★★★★★ — Paula Malits, May 2015** > My husband and I were building our dream home, we went through many local concrete businesses and so called artist to find Josh,who managed to produce our vision for our kitchen countertops. They are amazing and one of a kind happiness for me!! Not only are they beautiful, colorful and artistic, they are work functional for the amount of use my kitchen gets. We cant thank Josh enough for creating our very unique countertops. **Comment from Thiel Studios:** > Colorful is right! I'll admit, I thought the colors would be quite "Loud"...but it actually worked in your space! You have great vision and i'm happy that we were able to be part of your dream home! With all the delays and issues that you encountered during a new construction, i'm glad that we were able to exceed your expectations and provide an overall great experience amongst all the other headaches you were dealing with. I hope we get to work on some more projects together in the future! **★★★★★ — skipperhartzell, April 2015** > Fantastic!! Josh is a true craftsman. We asked Josh to provide us with several concrete counter tops, for our outdoor kitchen and master bathroom. And we asked him to complete the work and install it within 14 days. He actually completed the work early and the results were beautiful. I truly believe that if you can imagine it, Josh can make it out of concrete. Sorry for the quality of my photo. It does not show the quality or scope of the project. **Comment from Thiel Studios:** > Thank you so much Skip! It was great to work with another artist who can appreciate the creativity and character that goes into each piece we produce. As you discovered on the second attempt.... just because a contractor has worked with concrete before, doesn't mean you'll have a quality piece fit for function interior surfaces like your vanity tops. You have such great space and glad you were not only able to appreciate the natural beauty of concrete, but how important it is to work with a skilled craftsman to produce your summer kitchen and bathroom features! I hope we get to work together on other projects in the future! **★★★★★ — swjuliano, Dec. 2014** > Josh is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about his work. He took the time to make sure I understood the qualities of the material so that I would get exactly what I was looking for and knew what to expect. He is very professional. ## Selected projects - [Residential Concrete Bar with Integrated Champagne Trough and Sink](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/residential-concrete-bar-with-integrated-champagne-trough-and-sink-pj-vj~1451401) - Location: West Palm Beach, FL - Photos: 10 - Description: A custom built, multi-purpose bar area.
