Our Team
Barry Johnson, President
Barry has had a career full of experiences which have developed his master craftsmanship in concrete masonry. His career began with Chestertown Utilities as a Town Maintenance Worker. Barry eventually transitioned to Hercules, Inc. in Delaware where he worked as a Machine/Chemical Operator for 10 years. No longer satisfied with the swing-shift schedule at Hercules, Barry joined Union Laborers Local 199 (Cement Masons Local 2) where he worked as a General Foreman for 10 years. This was a unique time in which Barry honed his concrete craft alongside friends and family who also served in the Union.
In 1999, Johnson’s Concrete began with a referral for Barry to complete his first solo project in Kent County. He purchased his first trowel machine and other equipment to get the job done, and has been serving Kent County and surrounding counties ever since. He is skilled in all elements of flatwork, providing oversight for jobs sized at a few hundred square feet to over 50,000 square feet -- bridges, roads, sidewalks, and plenty more.
In his spare time, Barry enjoys spending time with his wife, his two sons, and his grandkids. He also enjoys doing work around the house and watching his favorite sports teams.
Darius Johnson, vice President
Darius enjoys working with clients to exceed their desires and visions for concrete solutions. From 10+ years in the family business, Darius has developed an eye and touch for a quality concrete finish through work as a laborer and concrete finisher. Yet, he most appreciates the artistic value of concrete and its ability to take any form, color or pattern. The average person is not aware of the flexibility of concrete's functional and artistic value and this is where Darius strives to create value for clients. Educating and consulting them about the wonders of concrete.
Outside of the trades, Darius spent four years studying Business Management and many other topics at Washington College. He moved to Baltimore after graduating in 2015 and spent three years working in Business Analytics for Prometric, Fundraising for Johns Hopkins Neurology, and Workforce Development for the Maryland Center for Construction Education and Innovation. Darius moved back to the Eastern Shore in June 2018 to apply his interests and talents to the prosperity of the communities that raised him.
Darius enjoys reading books, exploring new music, and spending time outside -- whether alone or with family and friends. Darius currently lives in Grasonville, Maryland with his fiancé and their rescue pup, Izzy.
