"Luis provided a quotation, excavated the ground around the wall, and replaced a portion of the concrete-block wall with a poured concrete wall. He was at all times diligent in his work, prompt in providing updates, and patient in addressing my questions."

"Right from the estimate I knew I was going to hire High Tech Concrete & Excavation, though I did get other estimates. The work was done quickly, professionally, and all through the process I was able to ask any questions I wanted and get real answers I could understand. They showed up when they said they would, and they were just a pleasure to work with. I originally had planned on a large concrete patio and concrete pad for a shed, but I ended up adding some drainage work and a retaining wall since the prices were so reasonable and the work I saw was excellent. The job was finished today, and everything was cleaned up and all I have to do now is enjoy my new patio. I plan to bring High Tech back for some additional work. Iâ ve never had a more pleasant experience hiring a contractor."

"We had a very tight schedule to dig and pour 8 footings and a concrete pad for a new deck. Jeff came through for us and had the footings dug quickly even though it was not easy digging. Because of the location of my septic tank and field, using heavy machinery was not an option. They worked around every obstruction including large rocks and drainage pipes while hand digging each of the footings. Jeff worked with my carpenter to ensure that the holes were exactly where they needed to be and was adaptable to making changes on the spot. Jeff and all his employees were courteous and a pleasure to talk to. We really appreciated how he worked with us on such short notice and that the quality of the work was great."

"Used them for spring clean-up of my 3/4 acre property in Mahopac NY April of 2015. They did a great job for a reasonable price. I've ultimately hired them to maintain my lawn for the rest of the season. I would highly recommend this company!"

"Did an excellent job replacing boards, power washing, sanding and staining deck. Looks great!"
Figuring out how many bars you need isn’t a one-size-fits-all equation. A structural engineer or experienced concrete contractor will look at your slab’s thickness, the loads it must carry, and local code requirements, then run the numbers for you. That quick consultation protects your budget and keeps the finished slab safe, level, and up to code.
Match the metal to the job. For light, thin pours like a sidewalk, welded wire mesh often does the trick. Thicker slabs—driveways, garage floors, foundations—usually call for traditional steel bars. If your site sees salt, humidity, or coastal spray, spend the extra cash on galvanized or stainless steel to fend off rust and avoid future repairs. When in doubt, a concrete pro can confirm the best fit for your project and budget.
Stainless steel costs more up front, but the alloy can last 75 years or longer with little to no rust. That longevity means fewer repairs, less maintenance, and peace of mind for structures exposed to salt, moisture, or de-icing chemicals. If you’re pouring near the coast or in a humid climate, the extra dollars now can save you multiple replacements down the road.
An engineer will review the slab’s thickness, span, soil conditions, and expected loads, then specify bar size, spacing, and grade. Skipping that step or guessing can leave you with cracked concrete or a blown budget. For a modest consultation fee, a local engineer or contractor can do the math and hand you a rebar schedule that meets code and keeps your project on solid footing.
