The Life in Business: Concrete Technology of Hawai‘i

Nov-Dec LIB Concrete TechThe mission of Concrete Technology of Hawai‘i is “to transform all boring and plain concrete into a beautiful long lasting and durable solutions for all of our customers. To cover all of Hawai‘i one slab at a time.”

So says the owner of the residential and commercial repair, restoration, and concrete resurfacing business, Gerald (Jerry) Garland. It’s a family business, with son Alika Garland serving as operations manager.

They provide concrete treatments to residences and commercial properties, creating the look of tile, brick, stone, staining, epoxies, stencils, and company logos.

The father and son team returned to the Big Island in 2005 to start a family business that could grow with the islands, they say. “We lived here in the 1970s and 80s and couldn’t wait to return.”

Custom treatments for any concrete surface include: modified acrylic cement overlays with custom colors, designs, staining and patterns; application of commercial epoxies, sealers, and logos; crack repair, chipped edge and spalling repairs; concrete preservation and waterproofing treatments.

“We beautify concrete without having to remove and pour again,” says Alika.

Operations manager Alika has been resurfacing concrete since 2000, and brought this expertise to the island in 2005. They are licensed and bonded in Hawai‘i.

“Our products are made in the U.S.A. and are the best concrete resurfacing products money can buy. CTI products have been proven and tested over 40 years and are manufactured in the U.S.A. The products are only available to factory trained authorized dealers. There are dealers in all 50 states and 22 countries,” Jerry said.
