"Evan (Halls Concrete) is punctual, affable, detail-oriented, efficient, and as a Subject Matter Expert; Evan has extremely talented skills. Evan gave me a very reasonable job bid, to lay my gravel driveway, and pour my 25 foot long x 15 foot wide x 4 inches thick storage shed concrete foundation. Evan explained every phase, and detail, of the projects' time-lines. I asked many questions. Evan answered my questions completely, which assured me my gravel driveway, and concrete foundation pour projects were being trusted to the right contractor. Evan emphasized that "No job is too small". He treated my backyard projects with professional passion, ingenuity, precision, and skill. A great looking gravel driveway, and concrete foundation, are the result produced by Halls Concrete."

"M. Cooper poured a 700 square foot concrete slab/driveway in front of our house, including forms and rebar. The crew was professional, price was fair, and results were excellent. Mike remained on-site throughout the evolution, including returning for control joint cutting after the slab had hardened enough. Would definitely hire Mike again. Highly recommended!"

"We had 5 companies bid for this job. Jesse B. from Joe's Paving took the time to listen to what we wanted and did a great job explaining the scope of the work required. The project was a long narrow driveway shared with two other neighbors. We had to do a combination of concrete and asphalt because of the grade in the drive. They coordinated each section well and worked ahead of schedule. Jesse also helped arrange delivery and installation of rocks for ground cover near the asphalt around our house. Crew was courteous and professional. Thank You Joe’s Paving!"

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.
