The Century step is portable, manufactured of high strength, lightweight, steel reinforced concrete for durability and convenient installation. The one-piece construction of the Century step requires no assembling, no form-work, no labor for installation. Once the Century concrete step is installed maintenance is nonexistent for decades. Century steps are ideal in tropical and sub-tropical zones. Fungi, insects, heat, humidity, excessive precipitation or decay will not affect their permanence, performance or safety. Century steps are manufactured using special concrete admixtures which make them very durable in areas that have frequent freeze/thaw cycles. Do not use salts or deicers on steps. Use a penetrating sealer for protection once a year.


Please feel free to contact us with any questions you may have about these products. If you do not see a set of steps you need for your home please let us know as we are able to provide you with any step you need.


Whether you are using a breaker hammer or a sledge hammer, it helps to locate the rebar (if there is any) and strike along its length. Sometimes, the concrete can be more easily broken apart if you follow the rebar.


An evaporation retardant is designed to slow down the curing process. This product is a must when working in conditions such as high temperatures, low humidity, high winds, or direct sunlight. This crew coats the entire inside of the form boards with an evaporation retardant. The retardant keeps the surface workable longer and acts as a form release, preventing the concrete from sticking to the form boards when the form is dismantled. This product is made by ChemMasters and is called Spray Film. In this application the retardant is applied undiluted with a sponge trowel.


Talk to the driver before he pours the concrete. Let him know you want to pour the stoop a little thicker and the sidewalk a little wetter than a normal slab would be poured. The reason for this is that a thick pour will exert less pressure on the form and allow you to dismantle it sooner than later. Pouring the sidewalk wet will also give you time to let it sit while you are working on the steps. wet sidewalk pour also provides extra cream, which can be rubbed on the vertical faces of the concrete to smooth them out once you start pulling forms (see below).


Keeping an extra bucket of concrete on hand is a smart move. It will come in handy to if you need to fill any voids that may be lurking behind the form boards. Keep the bucket covered and out of the sun.


Finish the area up against the wall with a hand float, sometimes called a mag, short for magnesium. This will create a nice even line where it matters most and help reduce the chance splattering concrete up onto the house while screeding.


Determine which way the screed board is bowed (almost every board has some bow to it), and screed with the crown up. This will create a very slight hump in the concrete, which will help the stoop shed water. Tip the screed board back just a bit as you move it back and forth while simultaneously pulling it forward.


This slab was poured in early October in Minnesota. The temperature was about 70 degrees, the humidity was low, and it was partly cloudy. From the time all the concrete was in place, the crew waited just under 75 minutes before pulling apart the form.


Concrete becomes significantly weaker if the water in the mix evaporates before the chemical curing process is complete. You could spray the stairs down with water every day (after it hardens) for a least a week to slow down the curing process. A better option is to spray on an acrylic cure and seal product. Sealing the surface also protects the concrete from scaling and spalling in cold climates. Apply the sealer right after you broom.


The day after this stoop was completed, one of the crew came back and cut in a control joint between the bottom step and the sidewalk. Inform the homeowners to wait at least two years before applying any kind of deicer to the steps or sidewalk.


There are a variety of options when it comes to the risers for precast concrete steps. The higher the number of risers, the greater the cost. Three-riser precast concrete steps will cost more than a one-riser precast step.


Where you plan to locate your concrete steps is another influencing factor. While the total price ranges between $900 and $5,000, the actual price you pay depends on where the concrete steps will be. For example:


Delivery costs for precast concrete steps vary depending on weight and distance from the supplier to the job site. For precast concrete steps/stairs, you should allow around $200 in your budget. If the precast units are larger, such as a set of precast basement stairs, the delivery charge could be up to $300.


Treads are a distinguishing feature of precast concrete steps. They make the precast steps more attractive; however, the price will be higher. On average, treads increase the cost of your project by between $100 and $500.


You can also save money by choosing hollow precast concrete steps rather than solid ones. However, remember that solid concrete steps will be more durable. You can further save by opting for a standard design rather than something customized.


Premier Precast is a supplier of precast concrete stairs you can rely on. We can deliver custom designs and create cast stone elements of whatever shape, size, and style you require. Precast concrete prices are competitive, and you can contact us to complete your precast concrete project from start to finish.

Proper surface preparation is critical to achieve a successful concrete repair. A solid, clean surface is necessary so that therepair material can permanently bond to the damaged area. Depending on the condition and size of the repair area, various techniques can be used to improve the likelihood of a successful repair.


QUIKRETE concrete repair products are designed and formulated for specific repair applications. Understanding the repair conditions and choosing the correct product for the job are essential for a long-lasting repair.


For repairs to concrete edges and corners QUIKRETE Quick-Setting Cement should be used along with QUIKRETE Acrylic Fortifier. Quick-Setting Cement can be molded and shaped to match the surrounding contour of the concrete and sets in about 10 minutes. Acrylic Fortifier provides the bond strength necessary for a long-lasting repair.


Prior to applying the repair material the repair area should be dampened with water. Enough water should be used to saturate the concrete substrate and any standing water must be removed. This step is necessary because concrete is essentially a rigid sponge. Dry concrete will absorb water from the repair material and can cause a weakened bond and shrinkage cracking.


Using a margin trowel or finishing trowel, smooth the surface of the patch so that it is level with the surrounding concrete. Quick-Setting Cement can be trimmed with the edge of a trowel and finished smooth. Avoid adding water to the surface of the patch. The additional water can cause surface color inconsistencies, a weakened surface and shrinkage cracks.


Concrete steps can be an important part of your home, depending on the layout. While many people choose to install wooden stairs, the concrete variety is gaining in popularity as they last significantly longer without the typical maintenance headaches presented by wooden stairs.


These steps, however, once properly treated, are sure to last for an extended period of time. Concrete is a naturally durable material that has been purported to last for tens of thousands of years long beyond what any human being, or any generations of human beings, would ever need a structure for. Therefore, it is extremely cost effective and in your best interests to treat your concrete steps with a concrete sealer if you wish to prevent any problems and potentially costly repairs in the future.


Concrete steps will exhibit excellent strength and longevity simply by virtue of being made from concrete. However, they will not achieve their maximum strength potential unless they are treated with a concrete sealer. Concrete sealers are designed and manufactured to work in conjunction with many forms of concrete (all forms, actually, though each form will require a different type of concrete sealer).


Concrete steps, found outdoors, are exposed to elements that can destroy them over the course of their lives. The degradation can be insidious, happening slowly over time without your knowledge, or the degradation can be overt and fast-acting, such as if your concrete steps are affected by a freeze/thaw cycle. Water damage is one of the most devastating sources of damage that can plague concrete, and constant exposure to the outdoors means you have to take the necessary steps to protect your concrete from water, ice, snow, the sun, dirt, debris, and other potentially harmful by-products of weather. 041b061a72
