"Waterprofing basement. I moved to an older house that had water entering the basement. I chose to go with Chris because he was the only contractor who took time to listen to my feedback rather than selling me a catch-all solution. The job started exactly on the day he said he would be available and he came back during the weekend to get ahead which was good by us. Communication and service was excellent throughout the entire engagement. I highly recommend Chris and his team for any outdoor jobs."

"Masonry by Tommy listened to our needs and offered ideas to make it better. He offers the best quality work. The workers are very professionals, polite, and neat. Their attention to detail and the appearance of their finished work is the best we have ever seen. In repointing old brick and laying concrete slabs, they matched the color of our 20-year-old masonry. I would highly recommend Tommy to everyone!"

"John and his crew installed a 300 ft + driveway and turn around area for us in October of 2020. He and his guys did an outstanding job. Some of the prep was completed prior by another contractor 3 years before. John quickly assessed the drainage issues perfectly. We are situated on a hill and we have not had a significant puddle in our driveway yet. He widened our driveway quite a bit and raised the end of our driveway to prevent the waterfall we had before. Someone drove over it on to our lawn and made a mess getting out - his paving and border held perfectly. I am convinced you will be happy with his work. He is also extremely responsive, on time and flexible. We could not be more pleased. ;-)) Nancy and Brian"

"They did a great job excavating our landscaping which the builders had left full of concrete and other construction debris. They hauled it all away and replaced it with high quality topsoil. They worked hard and got the job done quickly. They were easy to get them to schedule the job."

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.
