How Do You Make Cast Stone

Wet cast cast stone is produced by mixing the four common ingredients (sand, pea-rock, cement and water) together with carefully selected admixtures in a scientifically defined ratio and placing the mixture into professionally constructed precision molds.

Is it possible to cast stone?

Cast stone can be made from white and/or grey cements, manufactured or natural sands, crushed stone or natural gravels, and colored with mineral coloring pigments. Cast stone may replace such common natural building stones as limestone, brownstone, sandstone, bluestone, granite, slate, coral, and travertine.

Is Cast stone expensive?

Cast stone is typically more cost effective than natural stone, however this depends on the ordinance of the stone and the number of molds that are required. A new mold must be made each time a different shaped stone is cast, and each mold usually costs thousand dollars to create.
