Concrete Craftis a leading franchise in the decorative concrete industry, offering specialized services in stamped concrete, stained concrete, and decorative concrete overlays for both residential and commercial properties.
Founded in 2006 by entrepreneurs John Kostro and Dan Lightner, the franchise began as All American Decorative Concrete with a mission to provide homeowners with beautiful, artistic alternatives to traditional, plain concrete.
The company quickly grew, attracting attention for its innovative approach and high-quality craftsmanship. In 2014, Concrete Craft became part of the Home Franchise Concepts (HFC) family, joining other well-known brands in the home services industry.
The franchise differentiates itself by offering a wide range of services, including concrete resurfacing, repair, and custom design, all of which are backed by proprietary products and techniques that ensure durability and aesthetic appeal at a fraction of the cost of natural materials.
