Footing in stable ground
Steps start on a real footing set in steady subgrade, never raw Blackland clay, so the wet-dry swings that push our soil can't lift or lean them away from the house.
Proof
A job we'd put our name on
Entry steps that fit the house, with even risers built to code and footings seated in stable ground so the clay along this corridor can't lever them off the porch, then knit in clean.
Credibility comes from how it's built, not from promises. Here's the order of operations on every concrete steps & stairs job.
Steps start on a real footing set in steady subgrade, never raw Blackland clay, so the wet-dry swings that push our soil can't lift or lean them away from the house.
Riser heights are held uniform and within code, so the climb feels right and stays safe underfoot.
Steel in the pour lets the steps keep their edges and corners through year after year of ground movement.
A broom or textured surface gives grip in the rain, and we can add extra grit wherever it earns its place.
The new steps are tied in cleanly to the existing porch, slab, or walkway so the entry comes across as a single piece.
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 footing in stable ground.
A set of steps is normally quoted as a unit rather than by the square foot, driven by the riser count, the footing work, and how the run meets the house. As a starting point, count on roughly $300 to $500 per step. The firm number lands once we have stood at the entry and measured it.
Most often a footing dropped straight onto raw clay, which swelled and drew back across stretches of wet and dry weather and walked the steps off the porch little by little. We reseat the new footing in steady subgrade so the soil's movement can't carry the steps along again.
We hold the risers uniform and inside local code so every tread meets your foot the same way, because an odd step in a flight is both jarring and a fall waiting to happen, all the more when it is slick.
That depends on the damage. A little surface flaking can sometimes be patched, but steps that have leaned on moving clay or split across a riser have usually run out of repair and want a full rebuild. We give you the honest read on which one you are looking at.
We build and finish the steps and embed anchor points for a railing, then coordinate the railing install so the finished entry meets the access and safety needs you have in mind.
Expect to keep off the new steps for a few days while the concrete firms up. We lay out the exact timeline for your set before we pour, factoring in whatever heat the week is running.
You'll hear back from a real person, usually the same day. No call center, no runaround, no chasing us down.
