Concrete Steps & Walkways: Safe, Durable & Built to Last
Concrete steps and walkways are essential to both the safety and appearance of your property. Over time, exposure to weather, moisture, and daily use can lead to cracks, sinking, and surface deterioration.
At McKechnie Masonry Restoration, we specialize in building and repairing concrete steps and walkways that are strong, level, and designed to withstand Ontario’s harsh climate.
Signs Your Concrete Needs Repair
Concrete damage can quickly become a safety hazard. Watch for:
- Cracked or broken steps
- Uneven or sunken walkways
- Flaking or chipped surfaces (spalling)
- Water pooling or poor drainage
- Loose or shifting sections
Addressing these issues early helps prevent further damage and costly replacement.

2. Demolition & Preparation
If replacement is needed, we:

We carefully form and pour the concrete to ensure:

4. Finishing
We apply a clean, professional finish that can include:
