Welcome to Buddy Rhodes Concrete Products

Welcome to our summer news. Things are hopping around here with a completely re-designed website and a more sparkly letter format too. Come on into our new world!
 
We've Launched!
The New buddyrhodes.com Takes Off

We invite you to be among the first visitors to our completely new and improved website,
still www.buddyrhodes.com.
After years of explaining to people what we do in which arm of our company, we have constructed a completely remodeled site to answer all of your questions.
Let us know what you think, and feel free to suggest more questions to answer as we continue to improve our site within the new format.

The new site directs the visitor to three options: You Make It, We Make It, and They Make It. The You Make It section seeks to provide information about the materials, training and questions that come up for those artisans out there who seek to create with concrete on their own. We tell you about our products, our molds, methods, colors, training opportunities, distributors, tips from Buddy and FAQ's about beautiful finished artisan concrete. The viewer will also find
snippets of instructional video covering various
processes and a trailer for our DVD.

The We Make It section contains a portfolio of many of our projects created over the years, to show you some of the possibilities of artisan concrete. Although
designed as a focal point for homeowners and builders
considering custom fabrication by Buddy Rhodes
Studio, it is also a place to which other fabricators
may direct customers for ideas. There you will find Buddy's history in concrete, his finish options and frequently asked questions with responses. It should become clear that Buddy is a concrete countertop elder, a pioneer who seeks to pass the baton and help others who share his passion for "turning powder into
stone."

The They Make It area guides visitors who wish to find a qualified Buddy Rhodes Artisan in their region,
someone who is authorized to fabricate finished concrete projects similar to ones which can be found in our portfolio. This makes it easier for them to get the
concrete countertop or project they desire without communicating across the country, without incurring the costs of long haul shipping and resulting carbon emissions. Using a local Buddy Rhodes Concrete Artisan is a green choice! Buddy Rhodes home base
supports these Artisans with training, materials, marketing and networking opportunities.
