Threshold Design CNCRT CNTRTPS
Concrete is an ongoing staple in design circles. Just ask John Farley of Threshold Design: artisan, fabricator, and installer of 100's of custom concrete pieces in Ottawa and the Valley over the past decade. With his 30+ years of Architectural and Design background, John will provide more than just a custom product.

He will bring original ideas, artistic flair and contemporary suggestions which will enhance the end result of your project. His concrete designs have become a focal point of home renovations and new builds and added the "WOW Factor" to multiple commercial projects. Once thought to be rough and unwelcoming, concrete in the living space has become a widely (and wildly!) accepted medium in the world of interior design.

Although it's been more than a decade since John began forming concrete surfaces in Ottawa, new ideas, clean designs, and interesting finishes have made them more in demand than ever. A full spectrum of colours and staining techniques are available in John's Pakenham Studio.
Services
John Farley (literally) got his feet wet in concrete in the Buddy Rhodes Training System in Canada. He went on to develop his own mix in Ottawa for concrete kitchen countertops, bathroom vanities and more, after attending the Concrete Countertop Institute in North Carolina. His Ottawa eco-friendly, concrete countertop workshop is further testament to John's.
Threshold Design employs every green tool in the book in making eco-friendly countertops in Ottawa. Owner John Farley uses local materials for all of his aggregate and cement products - replacing as much as 25% of the cement content with ingredients obtained from industrial by-products near Ottawa.
Here are concrete answers to the questions we get asked the most - and a great way to learn more about our concrete countertop business in Ottawa. From concrete kitchen countertops to kitchen islands and vanities, an Ottawa-made concrete counter can be the smartest (and most stylish) solution for your interior space!

John at Threshold Design worked with us to make a beautiful custom concrete slab for our powder room vanity. He listened to what we wanted and made some great suggestions that resulted in a beautiful finished product. He was prompt and easy to work with. I’d highly recommend him.

We recently had our main bathroom as well as our master bedroom en-suite renovated. We hired a master craftsman to do the main work and tiling, and added Threshold Design to do three custom concrete vanity countertops for us. John was an excellent addition to the team, bringing positive energy and an eye for design and detail. He incorporated travertine mosaic pieces into the work with stunning results! What a privilege to have these pieces in our home to enjoy!

Threshold designs got me out of a jam. I took 2500 pounds worth of concrete treads to them In an emergency after they were badly screwed up by a previous company.
He dropped what he was doing and helped me out. The finish quality was amazing.
Timing was tight but they came through for me when he owed me absolutely nothing.
Always available when called upon.
10 out of 10 would recommend.

Positive: Punctuality, Responsiveness
John helped us restore our 14 year old concrete counter tops with cleaning and resealing. He was very available for questions and scheduling. The counters look great.

I’ve had 2 fireplace hearths created by John. In both cases he listened to my design ideas, suggested some improvements and executed perfectly. The finished products are fantastic.
Highly recommended.
