Benefits of Using Concrete Stairs

There are several options available for constructing staircases. Depending on your preference, you can use metal or wood materials. But why do construction experts recommend using concrete? What makes it a standout? Here are some reasons that make concrete steps more beneficial than other construction materials available out there:

Durable

Concrete is a very robust construction material. Thus, concrete steps are firm enough they can handle high loads. Also, with its durability, you can rest easy knowing the staircase is safe and secure.

Long-Lasting

Since concrete steps are durable, they can last for many years. Staircases made using concrete can last for decades - even a lifetime - with proper care and maintenance. Also, its long-lasting quality makes it cost-efficient in the long run.

Fire-Resistant

One of the best qualities of concrete is its resistance to heat and fire. Using concrete steps for either your residential or commercial property is one of the best decisions you will ever make. Using concrete for staircases makes you feel safer against fire outbreaks.

Flexible

Another quality that makes concrete steps an ideal choice is their versatility. We can mold concrete into different shapes depending on your liking. We can easily pour concrete into a mold of your choice and come up with your dream concrete step.

Economical

We build concrete steps that last. But apart from that, we make them at very reasonable prices. Concrete is a very cost-efficient construction material. It's even cheaper in the long run because, unlike other materials, it requires very low maintenance. Thus, saving you lots of money from maintenance costs.

Unlimited Design Options

We can build concrete steps incorporating the color, pattern, or texture of your choice through decorative concrete. Stamped concrete steps, meanwhile, allow us to mimic a more expensive construction material of your choice. It includes natural wood, tile, or bricks. Concrete also enables us to achieve classic and elegant designs.

Sustainable

Concrete is an extremely sustainable material. If you are not aware, concrete is recyclable. In our company, we have projects using recycled concrete. Like new ones, they are durable and long-lasting as well.

Our Concrete Stairs Services

When you choose Lakeland Concrete Contractors, you’re getting the best possible value for your money. We take so much pride in our work. We are confident that you won’t find a better contractor anywhere else. Adhering to local building codes, we offer the following concrete stairs services:

Precast Concrete Steps

Precast concrete stairs have become a popular choice in recent years. It's ideal for both residential and commercial buildings. Precast concrete steps are fabricated staircases. They come in various sizes and shapes. Precast concrete steps' suppliers deliver the material straight to your doorstep, ready to install. The installation process is quick and easy as well. Thus, making it an ideal choice if you have a very limited timeframe. Unfortunately, this option does not allow for onsite modification. Also, customization of your design preference is rare. Nevertheless, it is durable and economical, as are other concrete surfaces.

At Lakeland Concrete Contractors, we follow a strict precast installation process. This ensures we never miss a step and achieve the expected result. Some of the significant steps we have in our process include:

• Making measurements. We measure the area where the installation of precast concrete steps will take place. Since this is precast concrete, correct measurements are integral to the success of the installation. Unlike poured concrete, we cannot make adjustments on site. Thus, the importance of having experts do the job.
• Preparation of the site. When we talk about site preparation, we mean excavating the area, leveling the ground, and filling the hole with crushed gravel and sand. These processes are essential to ensure the structure is strong enough to handle the precast concrete.
• Installation. With our expert concrete steps installation team, you can rest easy knowing we do the job right first. Installing precast concrete slabs is easier and quicker. Unlike poured concrete, you can immediately use the staircase once the installation is done.

Poured Concrete Steps

Poured concrete is another popular method we use in concrete steps construction. Pouring concrete steps makes an extremely robust surface that lasts for years. Poured concrete steps are ideal for customers with a unique staircase design in mind. It also allows onsite modification in case you have last-minute changes on the plan or design. The only downside to this option is that you have to wait until all the stairs have been installed and completely dry before walking on them. Poured concrete steps are also ideal if you want a stair next to your foundation wall.

For your reference, here's a quick overview of our concrete step installation process:

• Prepare the installation site. Like any other concrete project, we start by ensuring the site is ready for installation. Our team ensures it is free from debris or other materials that may hinder us from installing steps properly. The preparation process also includes the delivery of materials.

• Make measurements. It is essential to measure the actual dimensions of the project. Otherwise, it may cause problems along the way. We use a framing square and other measuring tools to make proper measurements.

• Install concrete forms and riser boards. Step forms are essential as they hold the concrete in place to form a particular shape. Meanwhile, depending on the design of your staircase, we may install riser boards to connect your flat treads.

• Mix concrete mixture. Our company uses only industry-standard mixes. Depending on the project, we may use ready-mix concrete or customize a concrete mixture instead. To ensure proper concrete mixing, we use a concrete truck or concrete mixer.

• Pour concrete steps. Pouring concrete can be crucial if you do not have the proper knowledge and skills. In our case, we pour concrete with care to minimize the creation of air pockets. Also, we make sure we fill the entire surface, including side forms. Doing so ensures we provide you with a sturdy and safe staircase.

• Dry concrete steps. After pouring the concrete steps, we allow it to dry for at least 24 hours before proceeding to the next stage. Drying up wet concrete is vital in the next step. Otherwise, it causes the execution to fail.

• Apply concrete sealer. Preventative measures are always better than curative ones. To prevent water from permeating into the concrete, we apply a reliable concrete sealer on the surface. It helps the concrete last longer, especially during the winter. It is vital to know that the concrete surface must be dry when applying a concrete sealer. Putting it on concrete wet may lead to loss of adhesion.

• Cure concrete. A proper curing process is vital in achieving an excellent outcome. Although concrete surfaces dry up in 48 hours, it fully cures in 28 days. It is crucial to wait for concrete to cure entirely so you can enjoy its full performance for many years. The proper curing process is key to durable and long-lasting concrete steps.

• Remove forms. As we complete the project, we remove all form boards we initially installed. While it is unnecessary to wait for the concrete to cure before removing the panels entirely, we make sure it is dry enough and ready. We are cautious when removing them. We don't want unfortunate circumstances like cracking to happen.

• Clean the area. We are a responsible concrete company. As one, we make sure we start and end with a clean slate. We get rid of all debris and construction wastes. We dispose of them in a suitable facility to ensure we do not harm anyone or anything.

Decorative Concrete Stairs

Your concrete steps need not be boring. You can get away with the usual concrete gray-color finish. With our company's decorative concrete services, you can choose from various colors, patterns, and textures. Let your personality shine as you choose a design specific to your liking. You can take advantage of our customization services in case you have a particular design you like in mind. Our company has a very talented design team that will work with you. We make sure our clients get what they want and deserve in all the concrete steps we do. We provide limitless options, as we know every client has unique wants and needs.

Concrete Stairs Resurfacing

Concrete resurfacing is essential as your staircase age. This applies especially to concrete steps that are prone to high traffic. An aging staircase can be an eyesore. More so, it can be a safety issue for people using it on a day-to-day basis. With our concrete steps resurfacing services, we can help turn your staircase looking brand new again, at the same time, add more years to its lifespan.

Resurfacing your stairs improves not only your property's overall curb appeal but also adds value to your home or building. Resurfacing is a cost-efficient way of enhancing your stairs instead of replacing them. With resurfacing, we can also address uneven steps problems. Whether it's resurfacing exterior door concrete steps or an interior one, you can rely on our team. We have all the knowledge and skills to come up with the result that lasts long.

Concrete Stairs Repairs and Maintenance

Concrete is a sturdy material. However, as concrete surfaces age and constant foot traffic develops cracks and other damages. Immediate repair is vital to avoid more serious problems in the future. The sooner we address the problem, the better. We use different repair methods depending on the case or concern. We use a high-quality concrete patch material from a reliable manufacturer for minor damages.

Meanwhile, concrete is easy to maintain. You can clean it up using basic cleaning materials. But, for safety and security purposes, you may hire our team to do maintenance work for you. Proper care and maintenance are vital to keeping your steps safe and in great shape.

Concrete Stairs Finishes

Concrete is one, if not the most versatile, construction material out there. You can do whatever shape or design you want. You can even add the color and texture of your choice. When pouring concrete steps, you can choose from various concrete finishes available. While we at Lakeland Concrete Contractors offer different concrete finishes, our most popular options include:

Troweled Concrete Steps

As the name suggests, we use a trowel to achieve a trowel concrete finish. Using the tool, we even concrete surfaces and smoothen them up. Depending on the project, we may also use hand float for the same reasons. Troweled concrete finish is ideal for homeowners or building owners who want a classic staircase look.

Stamped Concrete Steps

Stamped concrete stairs are ideal for those who want an edgy concrete finish. Concrete stamping is a process that enables us to mimic or replicate more expensive materials like bricks, wood, and natural stone. We can achieve an expensive-looking staircase at an affordable price through this process. Through stamping, you can choose from various colors, patterns, and textures. You can play around and come up with a design that is unique to you and your property as well.

Exposed Aggregate Concrete Steps

This type of concrete finish is ideal for outdoor staircases. It's also great for pool stairs. As the name suggests, this process exposes aggregates like sand and gravel. Thus, resulting in a rough, non-slip finish, which is ideal for outdoor spaces or anywhere prone to rain and water. As a contractor, we highly recommend this for families with small children. Since it's slip-resistant, we get to lessen the probability of accidents.

Polished Concrete Steps

We use a mechanical process of grinding and polishing to achieve a polished concrete stair look. Our company uses unique tools and equipment to ensure we deliver results as promised. A polished concrete finish is ideal for commercial buildings and art galleries. It's an affordable alternative to the more expensive steel or glass steps.
