Edwards Cast Stone

Dry cast vs Wet cast

In general, pieces that are structural or too large to set in place by hand, like base panels and large sills, work best using the wet cast method. Small, repetitive, non-structural pieces such as copings, bands, small sills, lintels, or ornamental pieces that can be set in place by a mason are generally dry cast. Projects can include any combination of wet or dry cast pieces.
