Arturo Escalante · Concrete Studio · Joplin, Missouri · Est. 2000
24+ years. 100% solids epoxy, full flake broadcast, high-solids polyaspartic. Garage floors, driveway overlays, metallic pours — serving the entire Four State area.
Arturo Escalante founded Crete Creations LLC with a simple principle: every concrete surface deserves master-level care and the right product for the job. Based in Joplin, Missouri — with 24+ years of experience working with epoxy, polyurea, and polyaspartic systems — Arturo specifies the system that best fits your specific concrete, not a one-size-fits-all package pushed on every floor regardless of conditions.
The result is a body of work that spans residential garage floors, one-of-a-kind metallic epoxy pours, elaborate driveway overlay systems, large-scale commercial floors, and custom outdoor concrete — all executed personally by Arturo on every project.
Most homeowners want a ballpark price before scheduling anything. Our free quote form gives you a realistic range in under 60 seconds based on your specific project — service type, square footage, system, and concrete condition. Covers garage floors, driveway overlays, metallic epoxy, commercial spaces, basements, pool decks, and every service we offer.
The most experienced concrete coating installer in the Four State region. Arturo personally oversees every project — not a franchise crew, not a sub-contractor. The same craftsman who quoted you does the work.
After 24+ years with epoxy, polyurea, and polyaspartic, Arturo specifies the exact combination that fits your concrete's specific needs — moisture level, age, condition, climate. Not one package for every floor.
Garage floors, metallic pours, driveway overlay masterpieces — Crete Creations creates what other contractors can't attempt. 24 years of creative concrete work in one portfolio.
Referral-based business for 24 years. On time. On budget. Every time. That's our two-decade track record, not a marketing claim. Most new clients come from homeowners who already have an Arturo floor.

"Our garage floor looks incredible — we've gotten more compliments on it than anything else in our home. Arturo's attention to detail is second to none in the Joplin area."
"Seamless from start to finish. Showed up when he said he would, finished on schedule, and the floor has held up beautifully under heavy commercial use."
"The metallic floor Arturo created is genuinely a piece of art. People walk in and it's the first thing they notice. Referred multiple people since — all had the same exceptional experience."
