"I'm shocked by all of these 5 star reviews, but then again, I shouldn't be considering they ask for a 5 star review BEFORE they do any work during the estimate phase. They dug up our rose bushes and just left them there to die. They left their clothes in our basement and didn't even bother to clean up after themselves. They also left one of their tripods on our backyard. Not to mention, my husband found 2 cracks from their work order that they didn't even attempt to seal. Oh, and the plates they put on the wall are all crooked. Fast forward 2 weeks and one of the plates is leaking. This is abysmal and I recommend you STAY CLEAR. All photos are of "finished" work."

Enhanced Concrete Systems uses a proprietary process to transform ordinary gray slabs into extraordinary surfaces.
Enhanced Concrete Systems uses a proprietary process to transform ordinary gray slabs into extraordinary surfaces.
Building codes require you to anchor concrete steps to the house foundation or slab so they can’t shift or settle. If your home doesn’t have a standard foundation, a contractor will pour a small footing or create a gravel base that meets local specs. Proper anchoring keeps the staircase stable, prevents cracks, and helps it last for decades while staying code-compliant.
Concrete stairs are more costly than wood or steel options. They cost about $200 to $600 per step—roughly double the $100 to $200 you’d pay for wood. The higher price comes from the extra labor, specialized forms, and strict code requirements that go into safely mixing, pouring, and curing concrete.
Keep your concrete steps in shape by sweeping, regularly rinsing them, and rolling on a quality sealer or porch paint every year or two. During each cleaning, look for cracks, chips, or spots of erosion. Catching small problems early keeps water out, maintains the structural strength of the steps, and helps the stairs stay safe—and good-looking—for decades.
