Crumbling treads, broken nosings, cracked or loose steps and full stoop rebuilds for NYC homes — repaired or rebuilt by our own concrete crew.
JBS Concrete Pros repairs and rebuilds concrete stoops and steps on NYC row houses, two-families and small apartment buildings — crumbling treads, broken nosings, cracked or loose steps, and landings that pitch water toward the door. Our concrete crew forms, pours and finishes the steps to suit the house. JBS Concrete Pros is licensed and insured, and holds both a contractor license and a sidewalk license.
Freeze-thaw and salt break down the surface; we remove loose material and repair or replace the tread.
The front edge of each step takes the most abuse — chipped nosings are a trip hazard.
Steps that rock or have cracked through usually need the affected section rebuilt.
Landings that slope toward the door or away from the house get reset with proper pitch.
Demolition and repour of the stoop where repairs no longer make sense.
Rear steps down to a patio or yard.
Steps meet the sidewalk? If you also have a DOT notice, see sidewalk violation removal.
Surface spalling, chipped nosings and small cracks can often be repaired. If the steps are loose, the structure underneath is failing, or water has been getting in for years, rebuilding the affected steps is usually the lasting fix. We'll show you what we see and explain both options.
Usually water. It gets into cracks and pores, freezes, expands and breaks the surface apart; de-icing salt, a weak original mix, poor curing and age speed that up. Once spalling starts it tends to spread, so an earlier repair is usually simpler than waiting.
We form and finish new concrete to suit the house and the steps you're keeping. Exact color matches to old weathered concrete or brownstone are not always possible; we talk through the options before work starts.
Railing work can be coordinated with the step repair. Tell us what you have and what you want when you request a quote.
A Notice of Sidewalk Violation covers the sidewalk flags. Stoops and steps on your property are usually separate, but if your steps meet the sidewalk we look at both together. See our sidewalk violation removal page for how violations work.
It depends on the number of steps, whether it is a repair or a rebuild, and the weather for curing. We give you a written timeline with the estimate.
