Concrete Steps
ECS specializes in custom concrete steps and stairs for both residential and commercial properties. Our precast concrete steps in Edmonton meet the highest standards of quality and durability. We use precise manufacturing and premium materials so that your entrance stairs are strong, safe, and maintenance-free for years to come.
Residential and Commercial Solutions
Our concrete steps solutions serve both homeowners and businesses. Concrete stairs add curb appeal and value to any property. They handle high traffic and harsh weather without deteriorating. While wood stairs are cheaper initially, concrete steps last much longer, with lower upkeep over time. Concrete steps often mean fewer repairs and maintenance for your property.
Poured Concrete Stairs
For custom on-site work, we also install poured concrete stairs. We build forms, pour high-strength ready-mix concrete, and finish each step (typically with a broom texture). Poured stairs are integrated with the foundation or landing and sealed for weather resistance. They are a durable, maintenance-free option for any home or commercial building.
Durable Precast Concrete Steps
Precast concrete steps are made in a controlled environment, ensuring consistent quality and strength. These one-piece stairs have hollow cores to reduce weight and resist cracking in Edmonton’s harsh weather. The monolithic design fits flush with landings or foundations. Precast steps are extremely durable and maintenance free, offering a perfect solution for high-traffic entryways.
- Consistency: Factory-made units provide uniform, precise results.
- Maintenance free: Precast concrete will not rot or warp over time.
- Non-slip finish: Available with broom-finish treads for added traction.
- Quick install: Pre-measured steps arrive ready to place, speeding up construction.
Our precast concrete stairs often feature an exposed aggregate or broom finish. These textured steps provide safe, slip-resistant surfaces for families and businesses.

FAQs
How much does it cost to do concrete steps?
Costs vary based on step count, materials, and complexity. Simple precast steps may run a few thousand dollars, while custom or poured projects can be higher. We recommend a free site visit and quote to determine the specific estimate for your project.
How much does it cost to lift concrete steps?
Raising or leveling settled steps (using foam jacking or mudjacking) is usually much cheaper than full replacement. The exact cost depends on how much lift is needed and site access, but in many cases it’s only a fraction of the cost of installing new stairs.
Which is cheaper: concrete or wood steps?
ood stairs have a lower initial price, but concrete steps are far more durable. Concrete stairs require little maintenance and won’t rot like wood. Over time, concrete steps often cost less overall because wood steps need regular sealing or staining and eventual replacement.
