Concrete Steps & Stairs in Marysville, WA
Entry steps and stairs need to be built to code and finished with slip resistance in mind, especially in a climate that sees as much rain as ours. Marysville Concrete Pro builds and replaces concrete steps and stairs for homes and businesses across Marysville and Snohomish County.
What’s Included in a Steps Project
- Layout and code check. We measure the rise and run needed to meet code and match your entryway or grade change.
- Excavation and footing. A proper footing is poured to support the steps and prevent shifting or settling over time.
- Forming and reinforcement. Steps are formed to the planned dimensions and reinforced for structural stability.
- Pouring and finishing. Steps are poured and finished with a slip-resistant texture, especially important on tread surfaces.
- Handrail coordination. If a handrail is needed, we coordinate placement so it can be properly anchored.
Building Steps for Wet Weather
Slip resistance on the tread surface matters more here than in drier climates, given how often steps are wet or covered in leaves and debris during our fall and winter months. We finish every step tread with texture in mind, not just appearance, and make sure water sheds off the steps rather than pooling on them.
What Affects the Cost of Steps
Cost depends on the number of steps, width, height of the grade change, footing depth required, and finish type. Steps that require a handrail or additional structural support for a taller grade change generally cost more. We’ll go over these details in your written estimate.
What You Can Expect Working With Us
Steps built to code with proper rise and run, a slip-resistant finish suited to our wet climate, and a written estimate before work starts.

Steps & Stairs FAQs
What rise and run do concrete steps need to meet code?
Code requirements set specific ranges for rise (step height) and run (step depth) to keep steps safe and consistent. We measure and plan to meet these requirements as part of every steps project.
Do you install handrails?
We coordinate placement so a handrail can be properly anchored into the steps, though handrail installation itself may be handled by a specialist depending on the material chosen. We’ll clarify this during your estimate.
Can you match new steps to an existing walkway or patio?
Yes, we’ll aim to match finish and color where possible, though some variation between separately-poured sections is normal.
How do you keep steps from being slippery in wet weather?
A textured, slip-resistant finish is applied to the tread surface, and we plan drainage so water sheds off the steps rather than pooling on them.
