Stone Steps in Widnes

Stone Steps in Widnes

Widnes customers looking for stone steps turn to North West Steps and Driveways. Stone steps look right only when they are built right. That means a proper concrete foundation under each step, consistently sized risers and treads so the rise is safe and even, and a stone choice that will not flake or stain through the North West's wet winters. We work with natural sandstone, natural limestone, and quality reconstituted stone products. Every tread is set with a forward drainage fall so water runs off the nose rather than pooling in joints, and each step is mortar-bedded solid with no rocking or movement. Handrail fixings can be prepared at the same time if required. Widnes sits on heavy clay ground south of the Mersey, and the clay content increases toward the flood plain. On the clay-bearing streets, adequate sub-base depth and thorough compaction are essential for any paved surface that needs to remain level over time — clay shrinks in dry summers and swells in wet winters, which is why a shallow or poorly compacted base always fails eventually.
