"We recently hired Ervin from North Fort for a concrete project, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, their team was professional, punctual, and clearly experienced. The quality of their work is top-notch — smooth, level, and done exactly to our specifications. There was a small mix-up in the initial layout (partially on our end), but they handled it quickly and without any complaints. They fixed it without hesitation, and the final outcome was even better than we expected. It’s rare to find a contractor who not only does excellent work but also stands behind it with such integrity. Highly recommend North Fort for any concrete work — we’ll definitely be using them again for future projects!"

"Agrave did an amazing job creating a new patio with colored concrete and stamped. Workers were on time, professional and skilled. I’d recommend these fellows and plan to have them clean and repair all the concrete and flagstone surrounding my pool."

"I have relied on Elite Scape Solutions for more than three years for everything from major improvements to ongoing maintenance at my North Georgia rental properties. Their broad range of capabilities, combined with the personal attention of founder Cory Gilbert, has made them a valued resource for both my residential and commercial properties. Their work for me has included building three outdoor decks, installing wooden fences, renovating the interior of a home that needed significant updating, and handling plumbing and other repairs at my commercial buildings. They also continue to provide regular landscaping and property maintenance I have also consistently found his pricing to be competitive and cost-conscious. After more than three years and numerous projects, I can confidently recommend Cory and Elite Scape Solutions to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, versatile company to improve and maintain their property. They have earned my trust and my continued business."

"We originally contacted J&H to come out and look at existing joists under the house for termite damage. They came out and were very honest and said they did not see any damage and did not charge us. I then remembered that I had a report from our termite company with a blueprint of where they had treated under the house and where they said the damage was. Josh came back out and they researched underneath the house and found the termite damage. They were very honest and very reasonable and did a great job. They replaced the subflooring and joists and flooring in the kitchen. They kept us informed with pictures throughout the project. We are definitely going to use them again in the future and I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs any type of construction or structural work done."

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.
