Materials We Offer for Outdoor Stairways
Choosing the right material is essential to both the look and longevity of your outdoor stairs. We work with a range of high-quality materials to suit every design vision and functional requirement:
1. Natural Stone
Timeless and durable, natural stone like flagstone, limestone, or bluestone adds a refined, organic look to your space. It’s ideal for traditional, rustic, or upscale designs.
2. Concrete
Custom-poured concrete offers versatility in design and texture, making it perfect for both sleek modern aesthetics and classic looks. We can stamp, stain, or finish concrete to meet your preferences.
3. Brick
Classic and charming, brick stairways bring warmth and character to residential settings. Great for colonial, cottage, or farmhouse-style landscapes.
4. Pavers
Interlocking concrete pavers provide a contemporary look with excellent traction. Available in a range of colors and patterns, they’re a popular choice for custom walkways and stairways.
5. Wood & Composite Decking
Perfect for decks, porches, and patios, wood stairs (especially cedar or redwood) offer a natural appearance. Composite materials are a great low-maintenance alternative.
Each material is selected and installed with durability, safety, and regional climate in mind.
