The overview

What it is, and why it matters.

Steps and stoops are used every day, so they have to be safe and sturdy. Settling, cracked mortar and loose treads are common on older entries and can become trip hazards. Even risers and treads, proper drainage and a solid base are the keys to steps that last.

We build and rebuild steps, stoops and porch floors in brick, natural stone, pavers and concrete for homes in Nashville and across Middle Tennessee. We also repair cracked steps and rebuild stoops that have pulled away from the house.

Why owners choose it

Four things done right.

Even steps

Every riser and tread is the same height and depth, which matters for safe footing.

A base that stays put

Footings below the frost line keep steps from heaving or sinking.

Surfaces with grip

Treads are chosen and finished for traction, wet or dry.

Water goes away

Slopes and flashing shed rain away from the door and the wall.

Good questions

Steps, Stoops and Porches: common questions

Can cracked brick steps be repaired?

Often yes, with repointing and replacing broken bricks. If the base has settled or the steps have pulled away from the house, rebuilding may be the better answer.

What makes steps safe?

Even rise and run, solid footing, a good surface and a handrail where required. We build steps to meet those basics and to follow local codes.
