With experience and confidence we persevered. We are building generational wealth and generational experiences.

WHO WE ARE

ARMOR MATERIALS LLC, an Illinois company that began in 2014 when Michelle Parker and Tammie Rice had the vision to start their own concrete finishing company. ARMOR MATERIALS is legitimately owned and operated by two African American women. The company has successfully operated in the Chicago area for over five years. The team started on small and large scale replacement and repair projects for residential custmers. Within five years, they have added larger commercial projects. Michelle and Tammie bring more than 21 years of concrete experience and construction knowledge to their customer base. Both share an enthusiasm for economic development within the Chicagoland area. In ARMOR MATERIALS’ five years, the team is established as experts in the concrete finishing industry.

GOD'S GLORY PLAN

Psalm 118:22 The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.

God’s Glory Plan demonstrates acts of love that bring honor and praise to God. When we sacrifice our time, talent and blessings, we demonstrate the Love of God.

The development of God’s Glory Plan reveals Armor’s responsibility to love our neighbor as our selves.

God’s Glory Plan includes beautiful demonstrations of love and acts of kindness!

Feeding Our Friends was Armor’s first outreach to extend our love to our neighbors. We distributed bags of food and shared words of encouragement to lift the hearts of men, women and children.

Tammie and I know, when you give from the heart, that love trickles down to the next generation. The Armor Children enjoyed spearheading the logistics necessary to carry out God’s Glory Plan. Armor is proud to say, “Lord send me!”

Throughout the years of Michelle and I putting together our ideas for Armor Materials, we have always known that our goal was not only to have a very successful business but to give back to others. Our plan was always to give “God the Glory” and that is what we do when we fulfill our philanthropy work. Further, Armor’s philanthropic mission aims to create brighter futures by bridging cultures and building academic achievement and life skills for today’s youth and whoever needs us most!

In truth, I believe no matter what industry or line of business that you belong to, there is nothing that demonstrates the value of your skills more than putting them to good use for a cause you believe in. Michelle and I will forever dedicate our acts of kindness to the Big General Contractor above because His blessing to us has allowed Armor Materials to bless those that are in need.

What Our Clients are saying

bigstock-Cheerful-black-mature-man-wear-312329491

Five years and counting…and both my concrete slabs and Armor Materials, LLC continue to perform at high expectations!! It was five years ago that Armor Materials laid concrete in the rear of my commercial space. After years of heavy dumpsters rolling over them, and debris from the third floor being dropped down onto them, there has been absolutely no cracking, settling, or crumbing. It was a high quality job then…it remains a perfect job now. Cannot argue with success! Armor remains my primary source for concrete work. Armor should be a part of your team too.
