"I hired CD & Son Concrete to remove an old concrete patio and lay a new, much larger patio. They did the work in a day and a half & I couldn't be more pleased with the result. The new patio is beautiful and they cleaned up everything before leaving. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again."

"GREAT! Carlos and his team from Decorative Concrete got to my job when they said they would and did not stop until it was completed. They were professional and polite on the job. They also took care of my yard and property to put it back better than they found it. I would hire them for any other concrete work I may need done in the future. I highly recommend Decorative Concrete."

"Walter and his team were upmost professionals. We had concrete slabs replaced in our pool area. We chose a stamped finish. The job was complete in less than two weeks despite poor weather conditions. They made sure things were secure each evening when they left. The price was incredible for all the work that was done. The patio is beautiful. We will call "We Will Concrete" for any/all of our concrete needs going forward. It was so nice to work with local, honest, and professional people."

"After calling around during winter I found Robert and he gave me a great quote along with stealer work. He was here when he said he was going to be and I could tell he cared about his work. Has a lot of experience and knows what he’s doing. He was professional, I highly recommend him to anyone needing concrete work."

"My nosy neighbors came by and loved the work. I used exposed aggregate... the bigger, not pea gravel. It looks great. Nelson knows what he is dping."
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.
