Why Quality Steps Matter
Your steps are one of the most used parts of your property. Every time you enter or leave your home, you rely on them. When steps are poorly built or deteriorating, they become dangerous. Crumbling edges, uneven treads, and wobbly railings put everyone at risk.
In Haltom City, we see plenty of old concrete steps that need replacement. Texas weather takes its toll over the years. Freeze-thaw cycles crack concrete. Water seeps into cracks and makes them worse. What starts as a small chip can become a serious safety hazard.
Quality concrete steps built right will outlast wood, brick, or stone alternatives. Concrete handles our climate better than any other material. It does not rot, warp, or shift like wood. It stays solid through summer heat and winter cold.
At Pebblebrook Haltom City Concrete, we build steps that last. We use proper reinforcement, correct slope, and the right concrete mix for outdoor use. Your new steps will serve your family safely for decades.
Types of Steps We Build
Every property has different needs for steps and stairs. We customize each project to fit your specific situation. Here are the most common types of concrete steps we install around Haltom City.
Front Entry Steps
Your front entry makes the first impression on visitors. We build attractive, welcoming steps that boost your curb appeal while providing safe access. Front steps can be simple and functional or dressed up with decorative finishes. We work with you to design steps that match your home style.
Porch and Deck Access
Getting from ground level to your porch or deck requires sturdy steps. We build stairs that handle the height change safely. These steps need proper footing and reinforcement to stay solid. We make sure your porch access is secure and level.
Garage and Side Entry
Not every entry gets the same attention as your front door, but they all need safe access. We build practical steps for garage entries, side doors, and back entrances. These utilitarian stairs are built tough to handle daily traffic and weather exposure.
- Multi-level stairs for steep slopes
- Basement and cellar access stairs
- Commercial building entrances
- ADA-compliant ramps and landings
- Pool deck and patio steps
Our Step Building Process
Building concrete steps right requires careful planning and execution. We follow proven methods that ensure your steps are safe, level, and built to code. Here is how we approach every step project.
Design and Planning
We start by measuring the rise and run needed for your steps. Building codes specify maximum riser height and minimum tread depth. We design your steps to meet code while providing comfortable, safe access. If you want decorative elements or special finishes, we incorporate those into the plan.
Site Preparation and Footings
Steps need a solid foundation just like any other concrete structure. We excavate and pour footings below the frost line. This prevents settling and movement. The footing supports the entire stairway so it stays level and secure.
Forming and Reinforcement
We build precise forms that shape your steps. Each tread and riser must be consistent for safe use. We install steel reinforcement throughout the structure. Rebar or wire mesh strengthens the concrete and prevents cracking. Proper reinforcement makes steps last decades longer.
Pouring and Finishing
We pour concrete carefully to avoid voids and weak spots. As the concrete sets, we finish the surface for traction. Steps need texture so they are not slippery when wet. We can apply broom finish for grip or add decorative stamping for style. After finishing, we cure the concrete properly so it reaches full strength.
Once curing is complete, we remove forms and clean up. Your new steps are ready to serve your family for years to come. We stand behind our work with solid warranties.
