"Charles and crew did an excellent job removing large portion of driveway filled with cracks from an encroaching tree trunk. 5 months later, the new driveway is still flawless! Would highly recommend Carolina Concrete & Brick."

"The work was outstanding. When removing old concrete they discover it was not filled properly and had to order more gravel. They were very professional. Arrived on time and stayed until job was completed. The cement truck was 4 hours late and they stated until 10 PM to complete the job."

"Good job by Misael and his team. They were behind 2 hours due to concrete delivery delays beyond their control. They stayed late >6 PM to finish. Honored our military service. Accommodated a couple of special twists that arose reference low temperatures and external drain well install not part of the original plan. Misael helped reset a basketball goal that became unstable when the old concrete was removed. Construction debris removed from the premises."

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.
