"Really enjoyed working with Jose on this project to replace my failing driveway. Jose was the first to respond, was prompt and showed up on time as scheduled and did exactly what we discussed. His bid was in line with the other contractors that I talked with, but the reason I chose Alliance was the fact that he provided me with photographs of several jobs that he had worked on over the past year. I went and looked at the work at a couple of his close-by jobs and the workmanship was very good. I am a structural engineer by education and training and while a lot of companies can place concrete and finish it well, the true proof is in the preparation of the subgrade and the quality of the concrete during the pour. Jose did a great job of making sure the subgrade was compacted, the rebar properly placed, and the concrete was nearly perfect. The finish at the end of the day was a 9/10. The crew did a great job cleaning up and making sure our house was protected from concrete spatter."

"Ivan and his crew were very professional. The house was leveled, the doors were square again and the wall cracks were nearly completely closed. They cleaned up the site very well. The concrete patch work is OK, but not great, it could have been better. Overall, I am very satisfied."

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.
