"Ben and his crew removed a sunken garage slab and replaced it. The old slab was broken up and debris was removed. The "process" material was layed out and compacted and wire mesh was put down. New concrete slab was poured and finished. The work quality is excellent."

"From the moment Alex met with us we knew this was the mason for us. He was very polite and informative. Alex took the time to suggest design and materials in a way that we could visualize. He was also augmenting the design with pictures and he was open to our suggestions and vision. Ultimately we went with paver stairs and walkway which is beautiful. we are extremely satisfied with the workmanship, honesty and integrity that Alex Masonry brings to the homeowner. We were so happy with the front of the house that we asked them to quote and do the work in the back. We ripped up some concrete and added a small paver walkway to the deck stairs. Everything they said they were going to do they did. There were no hidden charges and the cost of the project was fair. 10/10 would hire and recommend."

"Front of my stairs were starting to crumble and looked gross. I was having a hard time finding a permanent solution, at a reasonable price, and had curb appeal. Had a couple quotes but I’m glad I went with Design and Build Masonry LLC. Very nice people, family owned, and did an awesome job! Will be having them take care of some more projects for me."

"You will not be disappointed in hiring this business for your next project. Not only was he always on time, finished quicker than expected, shared his knowledge in what was best for our project, he also did something I wanted that wasnâ t part of the contract. It was something I wanted but wasnâ t willing to do it now but since I had the material and he was already there; he went ahead and did it. I was so pleased with his work that I couldnâ t resist paying now for the extra work. He will also keep you posted on everything being done."

"Luis does a very good job. I recommend him to do a concrete floor replacement in your garage. I spent the whole day with them and they worked non stop. Reasonable price, honest, hardworking, paying attention to details. Have all heavy duty machinery. All job is well organized, Luis knows all the details. They made me a nice pitch on the floor so the water has a natural way to flow out. They compacted crushed stones for me creating a solid foundation for a concrete floor. I also asked them to put a fiber flakes into the concrete, and I am very happy with the outcome. The concrete going to last for many years to come. They left the workplace spotless. I definitely will contact Luis for all my other concrete/asphalt related jobs. His Company is fully insured and his wife Cristina provides excellent customer service and attention to details. Definitely 5 Star Rating."

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.
