Find out why it moved
A tipped stoop usually has a water problem or a fill problem underneath. We diagnose the cause first so the new steps do not inherit the old failure.
Proof
A job we'd put our name on
On Mesquite's clay, the front stoop is often the first concrete on the property to let go: it settles, tips, or pulls away from the porch an inch at a time. We rebuild steps and stoops so every rise lands the same and the landing drains away from your door.
Credibility comes from how it's built, not from promises. Here's the order of operations on every concrete steps & stairs job.
A tipped stoop usually has a water problem or a fill problem underneath. We diagnose the cause first so the new steps do not inherit the old failure.
The old steps come out with the porch, brick, and siding protected, and we saw clean lines wherever new concrete will meet old.
Forms get set to a consistent rise and run, with steel sized to the flight and ties into the structure where the site calls for them.
Treads receive a finish with real traction, and nosings are tooled to shed water rather than hold it. Wet steps at the front door are not a place to gamble.
We keep traffic off through the cure, then leave the entry cleaner than we found it with the walkway transition blended in.
Most contractors vanish after the deposit. We pick up the phone, show up when we say, and stand behind the work after the truck leaves. The follow-through is the difference.
A foreman we know runs your job and a vetted crew does the work, managed by Lucky's, one company accountable from the first call to the final walkthrough.
COI and lien waivers on file before we break ground. The documentation that lets commercial clients pay and gives homeowners peace of mind.
Prepped subgrade, reinforced and mixed to spec for the job, and proper curing. We build credibility through the process, not promises. On concrete steps & stairs, that starts with find out why it moved.
A fair starting range is $300 to $500 per step in this part of Texas, with landings, demolition, and tie-ins to the porch priced on top. A simple two-step stoop and a full entry stair are different animals. We price after seeing the site, never a phone number we can't stand behind.
Sometimes. If the concrete itself is sound and the void underneath is the whole problem, lifting can be the cheaper fix and we will tell you so. When the stoop is cracked through, spalled, or has pulled away from the porch structurally, a rebuild solves it once instead of twice.
Most were poured on the loose backfill left around the foundation when the house was built, which settles for years. Blackland clay's shrink and swell keeps working the soil after that, and a downspout dumping at the corner of the stoop accelerates everything. New steps get compacted support and drainage planned in.
We match finish and profile closely, and we are honest that new concrete sits brighter than concrete that has aged forty years in the sun. The color difference softens considerably over the first year of weather. Clean joint lines make the transition read as deliberate.
Demo, forming, and pour typically fit inside two to three working days, then the concrete needs several days of cure before regular use. We stage the work so you always have a safe way in and out of the house. Exact timing depends on the size of the flight and the tie-in work.
Yes. We set anchors or sleeves in the wet pour so a rail bolts on cleanly, and we can coordinate the rail itself. If a rail is even a maybe, say so before the pour; casting anchors in beats drilling cured concrete every time.
You'll hear back from a real person, usually the same day. No call center, no runaround, no chasing us down.
