"Jim Peterson is the owner and he was very nice and knew what he was doing. The job was done in a timely manner and the asphalt and new concrete curbs look great. The only reason I did not give California Outdoor 5 stars is because the post clean up and detail work was not done to my satisfaction."

"Paul is a reliable contractor with a good crew. They came on time and seal-coated my driveway with great care for details. Excellent communications and none of the corner-cutting I saw from other less-professional contractors. I highly recommend Paul and his Pacific West Asphalt."

"This is the first time we have used LD Construction and we're very pleased with the results. Owner Josue ("Ho-sway") offered to come and give an estimate (in the rain!) the same day we contacted him. His price was the lowest of the three contractors we had bids from, including the addition of two steps we wanted that the others said would increase the cost significantly. The crew showed up on schedule and had the 18 concrete piers installed by the end of the first day. The job was completed within the estimated 4 days as quoted, and the result is a strong deck that will last for decades. The excess materials were returned by Josue to the dealer and credited to our account. I would not hesitate to use his services again for other home repair or improvement projects. A good experience all around."

"Very professional. Completed the job in two weeks. The deliverables were as promised. They were very independent, requiring only minimal involvement from the client. However, communication with the owner could be enhanced a bit."
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.
