Concrete Steps & Stairs
We build safe, durable concrete steps and stairs that last for decades.
Why Concrete Steps Matter
Your front entrance is the first thing people see when they visit your home. Cracked, uneven, or outdated steps make a bad impression and can be dangerous. Concrete steps that are well built and properly maintained look great and provide safe access to your home for years.
Concrete is one of the best materials for outdoor steps. It handles freeze and thaw cycles better than wood, does not rot like timber, and requires almost no maintenance. When you invest in quality concrete steps, you get a long term solution that adds value to your property.
We serve homeowners throughout Lancaster and the surrounding areas. Whether you need new steps for your front porch, side entrance, or basement access, we build them right the first time. Our concrete services in Lancaster include custom step design and installation tailored to your home.
Signs You Need New Steps
- •Large cracks that are getting wider over time
- •Steps that are uneven or pulling away from the foundation
- •Crumbling or spalling concrete on the surface
- •Steps that are too steep, narrow, or unsafe
- •Water pooling on the steps or around the landing
How We Build Your Steps
Building concrete steps is more than just pouring concrete into a form. We take the time to plan the layout, prepare the base, and make sure every step is level and secure. Here is what our process looks like.
Planning and Design
We start by measuring the rise and run of your steps. This tells us how many steps you need and how deep each one should be. We follow local building codes to make sure your steps are safe and accessible. If you want a custom design, we can add features like decorative edges, stamped patterns, or colored concrete.
Site Preparation
If you have old steps that need to be removed, we handle that first. Then we prepare the ground by digging down to solid soil, compacting the base, and adding gravel for drainage. A stable base is critical for long lasting steps.
Building the Forms
We build custom wooden forms to shape your steps. These forms hold the concrete in place while it cures. We double check all measurements to make sure each step is the correct height and depth. Accuracy here prevents problems later.
Pouring and Finishing
Once the forms are ready, we pour the concrete and work it into every corner. We smooth the surface, add texture for slip resistance, and finish the edges. After the concrete sets, we remove the forms and clean up. Your new steps are ready to use in just a few days. We also install sidewalks and walkways to connect your steps to the rest of your property, and we can build retaining walls if your site has elevation changes.
Types of Concrete Steps We Build
Every home is different, and so are the steps we build. Whether you need a simple set of porch steps or a grand staircase for your entryway, we have the experience to get it done.
Front Porch Steps
These are the most common type of residential steps. We build them to match the style of your home and make sure they meet code requirements for safety. You can choose from plain, stamped, or colored finishes.
Side and Rear Entrance Steps
Not every entrance needs a fancy design. We build functional, durable steps for side doors, back doors, and basement access. These steps are built to last and require minimal upkeep.
Multi Level Staircases
If your property has a large elevation change, you may need a multi level staircase with landings. We design and build these larger projects to ensure safety and proper drainage.
ADA Compliant Steps and Ramps
We can build steps that meet accessibility standards, including ramps and handrail anchors. If you need your home to be wheelchair accessible, we work with you to create a solution that fits your needs and your budget.
