How Precast Concrete Steps Are Made
Designing the Stairs
The process begins with a site visit for measurements of the stairs. Concrete technicians specify the desired design, and replicate the dimensions accordingly, considering various requirements.
Creating Molds
Molds are essential for shaping the stairs and preventing structural integrity issues. These molds can be made of wood or steel.
Pouring Concrete
Concrete is poured into the molds carefully to ensure no air bubbles are formed, which can weaken the structure.
Vibrating Concrete
Vibrating equipment is used to remove air bubbles from the concrete, ensuring a dense and strong final product reaching over 30mpa.
Curing and Setting
After pouring and vibrating, the concrete can be set in the molds for a specific duration until it becomes hard and compact. It is then left to cure for 7-28 days depending on the mix design.

At The Concrete Doctors, we take pride in delivering superior quality precast concrete steps and decks tailored to meet your unique requirements. Our products are available in four distinguished product lines:

Style and Finishes of Precast Concrete Stairs

- Broom Finish
