Porches, Steps and Stoops

Steps and stoops take more wear than almost anything else on a house. We build new brick and stone steps, rebuild crumbling ones and install porch floors, with correct rise and run, solid footings and caps that shed water.

Questions

About porches, steps and stoops

Why do brick steps pull away from the house?

Without a proper footing and ties, steps move with the soil. We find the cause before we rebuild.

Can you match my current brick?

We look for a close match and show samples.

Can steps be repaired instead of rebuilt?

Sometimes. If the footing is sound, repointing and re-capping can save them. We tell you honestly.
