When Mark and Aylisa built their second home together, they discovered they worked well as a team and they started building spec houses together in the Ardmore area in 2000.

In the search for more beautiful, cost-effective, and durable flooring, the couple discovered Decorative Concrete. Mark attending several intensive trainings and they began adding concrete countertops to their spec homes. These were received so well that clients having customs homes built began requesting decorative concrete. The demand only grew from there, and a few short years later every home they built contained decorative concrete.

On December 1st, 2008, Mark and Aylisa opened the doors to their showroom and warehouse at 214 W Main St in beautiful downtown Ardmore, and unveiled the new company name: Concrete Perceptions, Inc. Now it is the central location for all your decorative concrete needs, and is the best example of what concrete has to offer between OKC and Dallas.
