"I am an elderly widow and concerned I could easily taken when I needed to replace my crumbling driveway and sidewalk, so I asked my pastor for a good concrete company. He has construction friends who told him about G's Concrete. After putting the job out for bid, G Concrete came back with the best price, so I hired them and I'm so glad I did. They were on time, professional, efficient, listened well, were always pleasant and cleaned up after themselves. I'd recommend them to my family, because I'm confident they'd be as satisfied as I am."

"I had some concrete work done a couple years ago, replacing the entire length of sidewalk in front of my house including the cover over the water main, the driveway, and some front walkway. The concrete still looks good and these guys did it right."

"Was looking for a business to create a front walk at my home. Wanted some particular features in the concrete. Ben was open to all requests and went above and beyond to get a color chart for tge color I wanted. Ben is timely with communication throughout the job. His Nephew and himself created the concrete when promised and professionally. Would indeed consider Rockman with my next project."

"I have a property that one out of the four concrete pads in the driveway had sunk. The tenant thought it could cause a tripping hazard so I contacted James and he went out there in one day with his crew and remove the concrete and repoured the concrete pad, making it level. He matched the concrete pad with an aggregate finish, and it looked like it did when it was new they were very professional and cleaned up after themselves and the tenant was very happy."

"It is a family ran business, which they have been around for awhile and shows in the workmanship of the product. Had Steps, railing, patio, and cement along the side of house installed. The crew was exceptionally friendly and didn't waste valuable time just standing around. The owner John, ALWAYS returned my calls, that is extremely rare these days."

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.
