About

Ted Van Midde lll, the owner of Van Midde & Son Concrete, started doing concrete after he graduated from High School in 1979. He went to work for a friend of his Fathers that owned Carcano & Velcich. Carcano & Velcich had been around Marin since after World War 2. At one time during Marin’s building hey-day they employed over 50 journeymen finishers and laborers. The company was only 10 to 15 employees when Ted went to work for them.

Ted lll learned the basics of concrete work from seasoned veterans of the industry. Starting out as a laborer, Ted went from pulling nails and cleaning lumber and running a jackhammer to running the business. After working for the company for 11 years he started his own business in July of 1991. The times were tough then and construction and the nation’s economy was down, but with hard work Ted was able to take a business with 1 employee and turn it into a company of 30.
