Why Stone Steps Are the Superior Choice
-
Rot & Decay
Even pressure-treated wood is susceptible to rot and insect damage, especially in damp or shady areas. Stone is immune to these issues, making it a better long-term investment.
-
Maintenance
Unlike thimber steps, stone steps retain their natural beauty with minimal upkeep. Simply rinse them occasionally, and they’ll continue to look elegant year after year.
-
Stability
Stone steps are more stable than timber, providing a solid, permanent structure that doesn’t shift or deteriorate over time.
-
Resale Value
A well-constructed stone stairway adds more value to your property than timber steps, as stone is seen as a more premium and lasting material.

Maintenance and Aftercare for Stone Steps
While stone steps are highly durable, a few simple maintenance practices can help them look their best for years to come:
Regular Cleaning: Sweep off leaves, dirt, and debris regularly to prevent moss and algae buildup, especially in shaded areas where moisture can accumulate. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution with a stiff brush to scrub away any stains or moss.
Weed Control: Over time, weeds or grass may grow between the stones. Applying polymeric sand during installation can help prevent this. If any weeds appear, simply pull them out or use a natural herbicide.
Inspect for Shifting: Although rare, shifts can occur due to soil settling or extreme weather. Inspect the steps periodically for any stones that may have shifted and call us if adjustments are needed.
Winter Care: Avoid using salt-based deicers on stone steps during winter, as salt can damage the stone over time. Instead, use sand or a non-corrosive deicing product. If you’re removing snow, use a plastic shovel to prevent scratching the stone.
Seal the Stone (Optional): For stones like bluestone or flagstone, sealing them every 2-3 years can enhance their color and provide an additional layer of protection against staining.

Outdoor stone steps are more than just a design choice; they’re a long-term investment in your property’s functionality, beauty, and value.
