Nielsen's concrete was started in the early part of 1989 as a hobby with six molds. In the fall of 1989 we decided to take the plunge, rented a small shop, and started offering about 100 items to the garden center industry. In 1991 we moved from that small shop to Royal Windsor Drive in Oakville, Ontario, where we started a retail outlet. Within a few years we were manufacturing almost 500 different pieces and had outgrown that location. In the fall of 2007 we purchased Oneida Concrete on Hwy. 6 just north of Jarvis, Ontario, where we now stock close to 1,000 different items, including unit steps, patio stones, bumper curbs, and, of course, concrete ornaments. Through our suppliers we also have access to another 3 - 4,000 items, so if we don't have what you're looking for in stock, we can probably find it for you. Take a look at our vast on-line catalog and if you cannot find what you need give us a call: 519-587-3216

FAQ Printer Friendly CAN OUR CONCRETE STAY OUTSIDE DURING THE WINTER MONTHS?
All concrete items we produce or sell are made to withstand our Canadian winters, with one precaution. Any item that will hold water such as birdbaths and fountains should be tipped over or covered so that no water can collect in them during the winter as the pressure created by freezing water could crack your concrete.
WILL SALT OR OTHER ICE-MELTING PRODUCTS HARM CONCRETE?
Over time, yes they will. In order that you will enjoy your concrete for the longest time possible, we recommend that all concrete be placed where direct contact with ice-melting products can be avoided.
HOW LONG WILL PAINT LAST ON CONCRETE?
Generally speaking three to five years. However, if you store your ornamental concrete in a garage or shed over winter, it will last longer.
CONCRETE IS HEAVY, HOW CAN WE GET IT HOME?
We offer a reasonably priced delivery service and for larger items, such as steps, we can also arrange installation.
DO YOU SELL GIFT CERTIFICATES?
Yes, in any amount that you wish.
WHAT FORM OF PAYMENT DO YOU ACCEPT?
Cash, cheque (with proper identification), MasterCard, Visa, and debit.
DO YOU STOCK MORE ITEMS THAN ARE SHOWN ON THIS WEBSITE?
Yes. Our stock selection is constantly changing and not all items shown here will be in stock at all times. Most items that we do not have in stock can be made or special ordered in about three weeks.
CAN ANY ITEM BE ORDERED IN A DIFFERENT COLOUR COMBINATION THAN WHAT IS IN THE SHOWROOM?
Yes.
