"They started work immediately upon arrival. They checked with me to make sure the slab was in the place I wanted it to be before pouring the concrete. They also cleaned up the work site when they were finished. Very nice group of men!"

"The basement waterproofing contractors we found in Southwest Michigan were expensive, and even among this group, Foundation Systems is on the pricey side. Everdry was even more expensive. However, Foundation Systems has done good work and have been available and friendly in response to our questions"

"John was fantastic to work with. He responded to my inquiry right away, and kept in constant communication throughout the project. They are going to come back in the Spring and check to make sure the yard is in good shape. He and his company did fantastic work. I highly recommend them!"

"After looking for landscapers for months, we found Platinum Ponds and Landscaping through Home Advisor. The owner, Ryan, immediately responded to my call, came quickly to do an estimate and stayed in touch while they scheduled our work. We had a difficult job of trying to join a new patio to some old existing bricks so it was challenging but I am very happy with the result. We will certainly call Ryan again. His crew was professional, friendly and always cleaned up to our satisfaction."

"I’ve used Vaso for several projects. The most recent was a full grind and shine on our 250,000 square foot warehouse where he cleaned up and overlayed moon craters we inherited from the previous building owner. He also warranties his work. Excellent. Highly recommend."

"He was recommended to us from another company. He was very professional in every way. Always answered any questions we had and was very informative."
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.
