A concrete mason is a highly skilled professional who works on large concrete projects. He usually works on projects that are very expensive. Concrete masons typically work in construction sites and on building structures and infrastructure such as roads, bridges, sidewalks, and buildings.

Their training is rigorous, and they have to go through a long apprenticeship process before they can earn their license to practice as a concrete mason. A concrete mason works with poured and finished concrete.
Poured concrete is concrete that has been poured into forms or into slabs. Finished concrete is concrete that is mixed, poured into forms or poured concrete company slabs, and then hardened and cured. This hardens the concrete and makes it structurally sound. To finish a pour, the concrete mason applies various coatings of concrete or finishes the surface.
