About Us

Our Deep Roots and Commitment to the Tucson Community

At Optimum Concrete LLC, we know a thing or two about concrete. We’ve been in this business for 60 years and counting, and we look forward to many more years of providing excellent service and hardscape artistry to the Tucson community. Our company has deep roots in this area, beginning with our founder, Dean Carson.
Dean was born and raised in Wray, Colorado. Dean grew up in a large family, and he went to work plucking turkeys from the tender age of 11. He loved sports, and met his future wife, Iris, when she was playing football with the boys. After high school, they married and then moved to Tucson in 1952. Dean went to work with a local construction company, which allowed him to develop in-depth skills working with concrete and learning how to keep property owners happy.
In 1961, Dean started his own company, Carson Concrete and Decking. The company made a name for itself by becoming the first Kool Deck (a concrete finish) installer in Tucson. He also developed a reputation in the community for his work ethic, integrity, and honesty, as well as the sense of artistry that still accompanies every project our company completes today. Dean ran the company for 50 years until one of his sons, John, took over.

John Carson still owns and operates the business, but only our name has changed. For a time, the company was renamed Carson Concrete Specialists, Inc., but in 2013, we rebranded as Optimum Concrete LLC. In addition, the third generation of Carsons has become involved with the company, making us truly a family-owned and operated business committed to adhering to our values.
