"I hired Alex Masonry to remove and rebuild a retaining wall that was leaning. After some discussion, I decided to expand the project to include new bluestone caps and to re-do my cracked concrete walkway with pavers. Alex and his crew did an outstanding job. Alex is extremely knowledgeable, personable and a pleasure to work with. His pricing is very reasonable. He and his team did a great job. Hard workers, with great attention to detail. I would highly recommend Alex Masonry!"

"Kurila Masonry just finished a job at my home which included replacement of two concrete sidewalks with brickwork, resurfacing of our front stoop and steps with stone, and repair of some of the concrete surface in our garage. The workmanship is high quality, looks great and was done on time at the pricing we agreed upon. Perparim was extremely helpful in suggesting options to choose from and delivered exactly what we agreed on. Would definitely use him again and recommend to others."

"They are the best contractors we have ever worked with. Their work is of unparalleled quality. Mr. Ademi, the owner, studied for 7 years in Italy under a master stone mason, and he has taken it to a higher level. I fully expect the work he did to last a century. He uses the best materials and does his work with great pride. He and his team showed up promptly. I am delighted. Go to his website for pictures: [*** Link removed ***]"

"I had an existing slab in the backyard for a shed base. I wanted to extend it and keep the same pitch for water to run off. Nick and his crew made very short work it. From the site preparation, the form install, the sand and stone base, the reinforcement, to the pouring and cleaning up. They were fast and professional. They do great work and would recommend them to anyone!!"

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.
