"They immediately responded to me, and came to view the project and give me a bid, which I accepted. George, the concrete specialist, explained the project, the timeline and provided me with product color choices. He was prompt, hard working, professional and took necessary steps to protect the house and driveway from any damage. The finished product met all my expectations, and I would highly recommend George and Lucid Concrete Specialists for whatever concrete project you have."

"They were a couple weeks out when we hired them, we went in a hurry so it worked. They were to start on a Monday and pour the following Friday. When they arrived they said we have concrete coming later today. The crew got it dug II, removing the stump, adding rebar, gravel and cement was down by 3:00 same day. We were happy. They came back today to strip the forms do a final cleanup. We are having them look at another project too. 5 stars."

"He has been doing it for a long time and does a great job!"
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.
