I would do this same course over and over again. Classmates were great. Most importantly, Phil & Brent incredibly kind, patient and easy going. Nothing was ever a problem. If you think to do this course, don’t hesitate. Two days of relaxed creative fun.

This is a really great, very hands on course. I found the whole experience to be challenging in the best possible way. They provide clear and detailed instructions with really lovely, helpful guidance along the way. A real sense of achievement, so rewarding, and grateful for the experience.

Phil and the Team @Concrete Studio delivered an excellent, hands on 2-day course. Good insight into GFRC and how it could be used and being able to make a vanity top and bench top was very satisfying. Appreciated Phil's openness with sharing his knowledge. 10/10 for the lunches provided thanks thanks to Ilka.

Attended the course a few weeks ago. It was an amazing course, well run, informative and very hands on. Thrilled with the new skills I have learnt. Thoroughly enjoyed it, it was well run, extremely easy for any level of experience to keep up with the well structured, step by step course, but way harder than initially thought to get the desired outcome! Great teacher and fantastic lunches, thanks again. Will definitely be going to another course in the future!

I just took part in a recent concrete casting workshop with Phil and Brett. It was absolutely brilliant from beginning to end! Phil is so generous with his knowledge, friendly and accommodating. We made a stunning vanity sink and table top. Well worth the course fee and I could not recommend this experience more highly 10/10.

I cannot speak more highly of Ilka and the crew at Concrete Studio. Our experience was amazing. They were extremely helpful while planning the right product (we had a beautiful bathroom vanity and an incredible island bench made for our new build), were really prompt and pleasant while communicating throughout the process and produced the most perfect products. They were even flexible in the pick up/delivery - working closely with us on a suitable timeline. Everything they make is spectacular - you have to see their work in person to believe it.

The team at Concrete Studio did a great job with the GFRC Essentials course. It's absolutely worth it for how thorough, and hands on it is. Plus the final products looked incredible!

Really glad I did this course, Phil has an extensive knowledge of concrete and it's properties. Jason and the boys in the workshop know their stuff, all done in a relaxed environment made it an enjoyable experience. Highly recommend this course to anyone. Phil's wife's lunches were amazing too!

Totally awesome experience!
Phil and the team are at the top of their game and couldn't do more to share the knowledge they have gained. So refreshing when most artisans keep their secrets closed to the rest of the community.

We've owned several basins from the concrete studio in both our home and business and they are aesthetically beautiful works of art. They stand 100% behind their products and go above and beyond if there are any issues. Thank you Brett and Ilka for all of your help, you guys are amazing!

On a whim, I flew over from the coastal Victoria to Perth to participate in the workshop at Concrete Studio learning how to make concrete basins and bench tops. A hands on course, very inspiring. I'm looking forward to seeing what evolves from what I learnt. Great team, led by owner Phil. A big thank you to his wife Órla too who spoilt us all with the most sensational lunches and morning teas! thanks too for recommendations down Margaret River way, I loved it! Best wishes for the continued success of Concrete Studio, great products.
