I created the form for the countertop ahead of time to reduce the price. Matt Walton explained that I needed to make the design out of 2 layers of 3/4 MDF. This lowered the price by $400. I have 30 linear feet of counter. He was punctual and stayed until the job was done. I respect his work. It is a very cool-looking counter and I get a lot of compliments. The end product is not what I expected, though. The and quot;concreteand quot; is just a skim coat over the MDF and chips rather easily. There is an epoxy 5mm thick over the concrete which shows all the imperfections of the screws and seams in the MDF. Also everything seems to stick to the epoxy, hot or cold the plates and glasses stick. I would not do this type of countertop again. Over the entire process Matt was difficult to get ahold of. Most times I left messages and he returned calls after a few days. I originally found him via craigslist. He advertised concrete countertops

.Project went great, and at the end their were no unexpected costs. He was upfront with his work and costs and i couldnt have hoped for a better result.
Description of Work: Matt and his crew were great. Remodeled my m.bed and bath. The room was an odd room above my garage attached to the main house. They came out and devised a plan to incorporate a big walk in closet into the plan as well, They were very clean and respectfull throughout the process. The bathroom was a very small and almost unusable. I now have a full shower/tub with stone walls and a double sink vanity. Matt also does concrete countertops and applys stain to make it look like any material i choose. The countertop is a big trough 48" and has 2 sink faucets. I now have a custom bathroom that looks like we spent so much more. Our m. bed flows much better than before and my wife loves her new unexpected closet. I would recomend matt for any size project.
