Frequently Asked Questions

ALL ABOUT CONCRETE

Our concrete work is all individually hand cast from custom made rubber molds. Colors are integrally mixed into the concrete and results in each piece being unique. We use recycled materials and are able to create a finished product 30% lighter than traditional concrete (in our non-terrazzo pieces). Natural voids occur during casting and some pieces will have very small pin holes.

Are the concrete products food safe?

Although the sealer we use on our concrete is food grade and safe, we don't recommend using these for direct food contact.

What type of matches do you recommend using with the matchstick holder?

We recommend "strike anywhere" matches, which can typically be found at the grocery or hardware store. Please note that regular matches will not light when struck on the surface of our matchstick holder.

Should I expect my incense holder to catch all of the ash?

No. While it will catch most, some will inevitably be blown outside of the holder, especially if you are burning incense sticks or place the burning incense in a drafty area.

How should I clean the concrete?

Do not submerge in water. Wipe clean with mild soap and water.

 

SHIPPING & HANDLING

How long will my order take to get to me?

Since many of our products are made to order, we may require a 1-2 weeks processing time. Once we have it ready to go, we'll send you a confirmation email with tracking info. Most orders go out within a few business days, though!

I'd like to change my order. What should I do?

Send us a note with your order number and your requested order change to howdy@pretti.cool, and we’ll do our best to update your order for you.  

Please note that if the order has already gone out, we unfortunately cannot modify your order. 

Oh no! I entered the wrong address at checkout. Can I change it?

If you entered the wrong address, send a note with your order number and correct shipping address as soon as you can to howdy@pretti.cool, and we’ll do our best to fix that right up for you.

Please note that if the order has already gone out, we unfortunately cannot modify your shipping address. Orders returned to us because of an invalid address are subject to an additional fee if reshipped.

I think my package was lost or stolen. What should I do?

We unfortunately cannot be held responsible for lost or stolen packages, but we will do everything we can to help. Please file a claim with the shipping provider and message us at howdy@pretti.cool with the claim number so we can help assist.

If you got a notification that your parcel was delivered but haven't seen it show up yet, please wait an additional day before contacting us. We're seeing a lot of parcels marked as delivered before they actually show up, but most of the time they just arrive the next day.
