The ability to walk through your outdoor space with ease is something some homeowners may take for granted. Your vision for the perfect yard may include dips and hillier areas for visual appeal, but it will also need stone or concrete steps to ensure you and your guests can get where you want to go. Steps, coping, and treads can link various paths to elevated or sunken spaces, such as a fire pit, or provide a way to access your yard from your front or back door.
These materials are designed to fit in with their surrounding elements. Do you already have a pathway in place but want to update your stairs? Or are you starting from scratch and want a matching look for all of your hardscaping? In any case, our experts can work with you to better understand your needs and match the style you desire.
High-Quality Materials Require High-Quality Installation
With the advancement of manufacturing technology, hardscaping materials are as durable as ever. There are also more design options that offer greater versatility. Stone and concrete steps mix a few elements to achieve this.
Steps, coping, and treads must be suitably fortified and levelled to be as effective as they are visually appealing. That is why we recommend leaving stone or concrete step installation to hardscapers with years of experience. Canlok proudly provides these services to our clients, working with you from the start by picking out your preferred material to the end after we’ve placed the final piece.
Types of Steps, Coping, and Treads
For many homeowners, steps are an accompaniment to their yard rather than the whole focus. Despite this, we carry various options to complement any design aesthetic. Our stone and concrete steps can be simplistic or add a contrasting look to your outdoor space.
- Our Enduracolour is comprised of our Umbriano blocks. They have a granite-like surface and come in a few neutral options and a warmer tone called summer wheat. This Unilock option works great for pool decks, driveways, and outdoor dining areas.
-
Heavy-duty retaining wall blocks are designed to withstand the harshest conditions without shifting or settling. These options can be built higher depending on your needs and present a unique profile compared to typical retaining wall blocks you might find in Ottawa.
-
Stonemark is comprised of ledgestone for coping. These materials have pitched edges and can blend seamlessly with numerous styles. Ledgestone is made from natural stone but combined with other materials for a durable product. These materials can be used to finish walls, along pillars and pool edges, or as step treads.
- If you want something even more eye-catching, decorative stones and slabs could be the right materials for you. These materials are meant to be standout pieces rather than blend in with their surroundings while maintaining the durability and strength required for outdoor steps.
