"Arturoâ s masonry did an incredible job with my front staircase. They installed 5 steps with brick inlay and thick blue stone treads- not the thin slabs that other contractors may use to save money. It is now 2 years after they installed them, and they have shown no signs of wear. His patio and walkway work are also excellent. He is the best mason Iâ ve ever hired."

"The experience we had collaborating with Jeremy and the Sensible Home Products (SHP) team was outstanding and one beyond anything we could have imagined. In fact, we have never had a better experience with any contractor or company, of any type, than what we had with SHP. Trust, transparency, and talent are three essential elements that drive a fantastic customer experience. Jeremy demonstrated a level of trust that gave us comfort that the needed improvements made to our 90-year-old home, were appropriate and that the house would be safe, secure, and visually pleasing for future generations. This trust emerged from the initial quote that described the specific steps SHP would follow, to leaving the work area, every day, as spotless as when the team showed up, to traveling to the Boston area for a door that was not available at a store in Connecticut, to creatively and thoughtfully solving the issues and challenges the house threw at SHP, to taking every requested addition to the project with a can do attitude. In a nutshell, the SHP focus was ensuring that the improvements to our house would stand the test of time, and that the work was completed with care and dedication as if we were part of Jeremy’s family. Jeremy was transparent about the daily work. He sent us pictures of the progress made and of the structural issues that were uncovered. Although we would have wished wood rot, roof leakage, water damage and termite damage did not exist, they did. Because Jeremy provided the daily updates, he was able to share why the improvements were needed and important. He always answered my questions clearly and concisely. The SHP billing approach was clear so there were never any surprises. In fact, I was pleasantly surprised at how reasonably the project ended up costing. Observing Jeremy and the SHP teamwork was amazing. I have never seen such a talented, dedicated, caring, and creating team. They worked with amazing efficiency and effectiveness. I can attest, based on other projects we have taken on, this project would have taken much longer than the five short weeks (including Christmas and below freezing temperatures) this took. The quality of their work was remarkable and the pride in their workmanship was always evident. The extra touches he included in the project and the counsel he provided gave us 100% confidence that he would do what was right and that he, and SHP, would go above and beyond. The house is beautiful, and Jeremy and SHP will always hold a place in our hearts. They are an absolute gift, and they are now considered part of our family. I did not know Jeremy before this project, but I now count him as a friend. Going forward, we will call Jeremy and SHP first and we will know that he will care for us and for our house as if it was his own."

Yes, to meet building codes, concrete steps must be securely fastened to your home's foundation or slab. This ensures stability and prevents movement. If your home lacks a conventional foundation, you'll need to install an approved footing beneath the steps to comply with local regulations.
Yes, concrete stairs are generally more expensive than wood or steel alternatives due to higher labor costs and specialized installation methods. Wood stairs typically cost between $100 and $200 per step, while concrete steps range from $200 to $600 per step.
To maintain your concrete steps, clean them thoroughly and apply a durable sealer or quality paint every one to two years. Regular inspections help identify any chipping or erosion early, allowing prompt repairs that prolong the lifespan and preserve structural integrity.
