On Garland's long-settled lots, the entry steps are usually the first thing to drift away from the porch. We rebuild them with uniform, code-built risers on footings seated in stable ground so North Texas clay can't walk them loose, then knit them back into the house 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 into steady subgrade, never bare Blackland clay, so the wet-dry swings that drive our soil, harder still on lots that hold lake moisture, can't heave or lean them off the house the way they edged the old set out of line.
Riser heights stay uniform and within code, so the climb feels right and stays safe underfoot.
Steel cast into the pour helps the steps hold their corners and nosing through season on season of ground that keeps shifting.
A broom or textured surface keeps footing in the rain, and we can add grit where the entry sees the most traffic.
We knit the new steps into the existing porch, slab, or walkway so the entry comes off as a single piece of work.
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 anchored in steady ground.
Steps get quoted as a set, not by the square foot, with the price riding on the riser count, the footing depth, and how the flight meets the house. To start the conversation, figure somewhere around $300 to $500 per step. The exact figure lands once we have walked the entry and taken our measurements.
Nearly always a footing poured straight onto bare clay, which puffed up and tightened back down across years of rain and drought and inched the steps off the porch over time. We anchor the new footing down in steady subgrade so the moving soil can't drag the set with it a second time.
We hold the risers even and inside local code so every tread lands the same way underfoot, since a single odd step in a flight throws people off and invites a stumble, worse yet once rain has it slick.
It depends on what has gone wrong. Minor surface chipping can sometimes be filled and left, but a set that has tipped on moving clay or split through a riser has usually run out of repair and is due for a full rebuild. We will give you a straight call on which way yours lean.
We pour and finish the steps and embed anchor points for a railing in the wet concrete, then line up the railing install so the finished entry meets the access and safety you are after.
Plan on staying off the fresh set for a few days while the concrete keeps gaining strength. We give you the specific timeline for your steps before the pour, with that week's heat factored in.
You'll hear back from a real person, usually the same day. No call center, no runaround, no chasing us down.
