Contractor Elite Group
"I took the leap into Decorative Concrete and it changed my life. I am going to show you how!"
Hello, I'm Chad Shoemaker, a West Virginia native and professional contractor. As the founder of Top Coat Technicians, I started in this trade from scratch — dedicating myself to growing my skills and expertise into a thriving full-time business.
I specialize in both residential and commercial applications, delivering tailored solutions to meet the unique needs of every client. My journey from zero to full-time contractor in the decorative concrete industry is exactly the roadmap I share with students through the Contractor Elite Group at Coatings College.
Alongside Corey Colson, I co-instruct Business 101 — covering the exact steps and mindset shifts it takes to build a real business in this industry. From getting your first client to bidding larger commercial contracts, the knowledge I share is hard-won and immediately applicable.
