From the company: I began my concrete experience working along side my father at a very young age. He and his father and brothers all worked in the concrete industry. My father was a crew foreman for David Kane Foundation company and poured foundations daily. After Army service I worked under him for a short time and then moved on to work for Vulcan Materials Co as a Ready Mix Truck Driver. While at Vulcan I was certified as an ASI concrete inspector and not only drove but also was the plants QC tech. At this time Vulcan was instrumental with the highway bridges being built on the IH410/IH10 interchange. Since this was a state funded project, all concrete had to be tested at the plant before discharged to the field.

After leaving Vulcan Materials and completing an Engineering Technology degree at SAC, I starting my business part time in 2001 while working as an inspector. I then took on many projects within the city right of way for customers who needed sidewalks and drive way approaches in the Historic King William area downtown. I also have built pier and beam foundations, slab foundations, and concrete structural supports. I have worked in with several engineers during many projects as well.
