Concrete In Disguise

My name is Stephen Allphin, and I'm the President of Concrete in Disguise, LLC. I have a degree in Computer Science and spent 20 years in the IT field, but I always enjoyed working on projects around the house. I'd spend my weekends making and fixing things to take my mind off the fact that I hated "driving a desk" all week at my job. Concrete in Disguise, LLC came about because of a failed DIY project to make a concrete countertop for my home. At some point, I came upon the idea of making a concrete countertop to replace the cultured marble tops in our bathroom.

Taking care of your concrete countertops does not take a lot of effort, but does require you to understand the kind of things that could cause problems. Concrete naturally is a porous material - when substances enter these pores and become trapped, your concrete becomes stained. A good sealer will prevent staining agents from penetrating into the pores of the concrete, neutralize or resist acids, and provide a nice, even finish on your concrete countertop. Sealers for concrete countertops have come a long way in the last 10 years or so, but they still haven't discovered the perfect sealer.

Concrete in Disguise, LLC is a precast concrete countertop manufacturer specializing in custom decorative concrete countertops for residential and commercial applications. We work with builders, architects, interior designers and homeowners to design beautiful and functional countertops that become works of art - works of art that you can use in your home every day. Each piece is designed to be a part of your home's aesthetic, both beautiful and original, but they're also well-manufactured structures that will last in your home for years - our concrete countertops offer superior strength and less maintenance than competing materials, making your life easier.

Stephen is the President of Concrete in Disguise, LLC. He started the business in 2009 after spending 20 years in the IT field as a computer programmer and a project manager. He never enjoyed "driving a desk" for a living and got interested in concrete countertops after a failed attempt at making his own. For more on the story of how he got into this business, see About Concrete in Disguise. Justin has been working at Concrete in Disguise since August of 2014 and is our Operations Manager.
