Dear Big Al, What is the difference between cement and concrete? Jesse, Acton Ma
Hi Jesse,
Cement is a primary ingredient of concrete. You know people ask me about "cement countertops" all the time and I never correct them. It's all right with me what ever you call them.
Concrete is made up of portland cement aggregate and water. Portland cement is made from limestone and sand or clay. Aggregate can be sand, stone, glass or just about any material that is non absorbent and does not degrade over time. For a good overview of concrete countertops click here.
Yours,
Big Al
