CONCRETE STEPS AND STAIRS IN EL DORADO HILLS, CA
Concrete steps and stairways are one of the most conspicuous features at the entryway of any property, although too often they get demoted to simply functional status. Magnificently elevated concrete steps or stairs are pleasantly striking and can act as a focal point of any entrance. To add a touch of decorative nature to the concrete stairways, a combination of staining & stamping patterns can possibly be used to accentuate your signature taste and property. For a matching color and texture, the concrete steps can be poured alongside your sidewalks or driveway. A property owner can equally choose to have precast concrete stairs or steps. Our EDH concrete contractors can build the steps and stairs offsite for you and install them later on your project if you opt for the precast concrete steps. Our El Dorado Hills concrete contractors will effectively carry out the concrete stairs project for you. We have a portfolio with the updated photo galleries of different concrete stairs designs that you can choose from.
Construction of concrete stairs involves these steps;

1. Concrete stairs and steps design: El Dorado Hills concrete contractors will come up with the best design for your property after an extensive site study.
2. Foundation preparation: the concrete stairs construction will require a stable base and our concrete contractors will properly lay down a strong foundation for your stairs. This ensures that the stairs load are equally transferred to the ground and resist the possible movement of the steps or stairs.
3. Form-work building: a proper formwork entails checking of the angle of flight as well as the dimensions of both the stair tread and rise. The boards used for formwork building must be thick enough to withhold the poured concrete pressure. We use spirit levels to obtain a neat formal look.
4. Steel bars anchoring and concreting: our concrete contractors will calculate the number of steel bars and the sizes needed for the concrete stair support depending on the expected load on the stairs. This ensures equal distribution of the weight load down to the ground. Once the steel reinforcement is complete, the concrete is then poured and a concrete vibrator used to completely fill the gaps.
5. Formwork removal, finishing and curing of the concrete: proper curing is done to prevent cracks on the concrete from thermal expansion. The formwork is then removed after twenty one days and the concrete stairs finishing carried out depending on the customer’s requirements and the stairs use.
