Since the Roman Empire, no material has contributed more to the building trade than concrete. Many don’t realize how intricate a process concrete construction is. It’s a complex system requiring planning, precision and expertise to execute properly. Today, concrete is still prized for its beauty, strength and versatility. At Altered Earth, we LOVE concrete and offer all iterations of the material. We have a soft spot in our heart for highly designed architectural walls and flatwork.
