Ordering Beton tiles or bespoke surfaces is simple. Once the specifications are finalised we can start producing your bespoke pieces for your project. This usually takes 4-6 weeks from templating to installation, all of which is included in our service.

Worktops:
Maximum length for our worktops are 3050mm, this is to ensure they are safe to transport and safe to fit.
Our recommended thickness for the concrete worktops are 50mm. We can increase thicknes as desired. However, the minimum we can make the tops is 40mm, to achieve this we would use extra reinforcement within the concrete.

Tiles:
The Beton concrete tiles are available from 200x200mm to 1200x1200mm as standard tiles
We can create casts to accomodate almost any shape tile for your project, we are capable of making bespoke pieces from our 22 colours in 4 finishes.

Concrete is naturally porous however sealing the surface reduces the risk of liquids penetrating into the material, also patina can develop over time with use. Concrete as a material is pretty similar to natural stone or wood, however there is a lot of things to remember that will keep your concrete product looking beautiful for a long time. Ground concrete surfaces are less likely to mark and are more effective at hiding marks than those surfaces that are just polished. Following our Aftercare Instructions will ensure the quality and appearance for many years. Concrete is a very specific material with many unique features. Variations in product's appearance and colour, hair line crazing, flecking, pitting, dappling and small air bubbles/holes are considered to be part of the natural beauty of the material.

Cleaning:
The surface of your concrete has been sealed to protect it from liquids and dirt particles. Beton Bespoke Concrete recommends to clean surfaces carefully with soft equipment (such as sponge or towel) without any sharp elements. Avoid spilling any acidic substances or using any strong chemical cleaning products on the surface. If you accidentally spill such substance, wipe it out immediately with a damp cloth (allowing it to dry). Our concrete should be cleaned with warm soapy water using a bleach free or special cleaning products. Scrubbing with abrasive powders or pads is not recommended as this may damage the surface and sealer coating. You should also avoid any corrosive, solvent materials and cleaners.

Staining:
Our products are treated with a sealer to help prevent staining and for hygiene purposes. During the first few weeks we recommend to keep the tops as clean and dry as possible, you can use them normally. You need to remember to wipe the tops down after every use and do not leave anything wet on the surface. It can damage the sealer and might leave a stain. Do not keep your concrete product under cover, concrete needs to breathe to get dry and cure properly - covering the surface will disturb this process. We also recommend to avoid leaving acidic substances such a vinegar and lemon juice in contact with the concrete. Lighter colours are naturally more susceptible to staining comparing to strong colours and should be treated with extra care for couple of weeks while they cure. Please note that any marks and discolouration caused by the process of production may dry and disappear after a few extra weeks after the installation.

Acids:
Particular care should be taken when using acidic foods such as lemon, fruit juice etc. The citric acid in these types of food can leave a mark.

Cutting & Chopping:
Cutting and chopping or any other abrasive action should be done on a chopping board and not directly on the concrete as this may damage the surface.

Chipping:
Edges or corners of the concreete can be chipped if knocked by heavy items. Care should be taken when using heavy pots and pans. The surface can be damaged by scratching with any sharp items, which is why we recommend to clean surfaces carefully with soft equipment (such as sponge or towel) without any sharp elements.

Hot Pots:
The concrete surface may be damaged or discoloured by the heat from hot utensils. We recommend you to use a board or a trivet.

Water:
Our surfaces are 100% resistant to pure water. Water contains minerals that cause white residue on the surface if left alone. We recommend clearing up any liquids from the surface of the concrete as soon as possible.
