Tom
Ralston
is the president of Tom Ralston Concrete, a company founded
by his grandfather, Wilbur Thomas Ralston, in 1928. The company,
based in Santa Cruz, California, employs 30, and has two
masonry
divisions, as well as an on-site showroom.
When Tom took
the helm from his father, Jim, in 1989, he brought his creative
flair, which naturally altered the company's focus from traditional
concrete projects to modern, decorative concrete stamping,
staining, and one-of-a-kind structural projects for residential
and commercial clients. One of Tom's primary goals is to stay
one step ahead of innovation by consistently scouting out
new products and helping clients achieve the unique projects
they envision.
Tom is
a frequent speaker and trainer of decorative concrete techniques
at industry conferences and seminars, including CONEXPO
and the Decorative Concrete Council.
