In today’s world of construction, Olvera Cast Stone is proud to be a leader in the cast stone industry. Every company starts from the ground floor and works its way to the top against hardships to become a recognized and stabilized company. Olvera Cast Stone’s owner and President Salvador Olvera began his career in 1989 to enhance the creativity in the architectural design of the cast stone industry. Dedicated to the art and accuracy of producing fine cast stone by hand, Mr. Olvera faced the hardships of starting a business. He began in 1990 with a 10’x20’ building where he started with his first designs such as keystones and address blocks. With only a wheel barrel, shovel, and his bare hands, he mixed the sand, cement, and pit rock which created the art that satisfied every customer that arrived at his company for the first time.
Encouraged by the commendation and appreciation from his many customers, he operated and managed every project handed to him. His designs increased from keystones and address blocks to door and window surrounds, column caps, subdivision custom entry signs, balustrades, and fireplaces, to name a few.
In 2000, Olvera Cast Stone expanded to a 40’x100’ building, to provide even better quality and more choices for our clients. This allows our costumers to order from our extensive inventory or to create their own custom-designed architectural elements. Also Mr. Olvera has invested in better machines such as mixers and compressors to provide better quality products, of which every step is created by hand.
In 2016, Maribel Olvera joined Olvera Cast Stone after graduating from Texas State University located in San Marcos, Texas. Using the knowledge she gained from there and real world experience working along side with her father, they both have been able to expand the company together.
In 2019, Isabel Olvera joined Olvera Cast Stone after graduating with an Architectural Specialization and a certification in AutoCAD. All cast stone designs and drawings are done in AutoCAD, allowing accuracy to details and exact measurements.
