Concrete Step profiles
The right step profile enhances both the appearance and functionality of your concrete steps. At The Art of Concrete, we offer three carefully selected step profiles to suit classic, modern, and high-end architectural designs.
Classic Square Edge
A timeless and versatile profile featuring clean, straight lines. This option delivers a crisp, traditional look that works beautifully with broom-finished concrete for porches, walkways, and front entrances. Durable, simple, and always in style.
Cantilevered Modern Edge
A sleek, contemporary design where the tread slightly overhangs the riser below, creating a floating, architectural effect. This high-end profile is ideal for modern homes, luxury landscapes, and statement entrances seeking a bold, upscale appearance.
Bullnose Edge
A rounded front edge that provides a smooth, comfortable feel underfoot while minimizing edge chipping. One of the most popular choices for residential steps, offering enhanced safety, durability, and timeless curb appeal.
Why Step Profile Selection Matters:
Choosing the correct step profile improves safety, reduces wear, and ensures your concrete steps complement the overall design of your home. Whether you prefer classic simplicity or modern architectural flair, the right profile makes a lasting difference.
Classic Concrete Square Step
This traditional flat step features a textured broom finish, combining safety, durability,
and timeless style. Its clean lines and subtle texture provide excellent slip resistance
while complementing any residential or commercial entrance.
Low-maintenance and long-lasting, it’s a reliable choice for classic concrete step design.
Exposed Aggregate Concrete Square Step
A clean, modern step profile featuring natural stone texture for added grip and
visual appeal. Durable, slip-resistant, and low maintenance, it delivers a refined,
high-end look for both residential and commercial spaces.
Bullnose Exposed Aggregate with Stamped
This premium step profile combines a smooth, rounded bullnose tread with an
exposed aggregate finish for texture and slip resistance. The vertical riser is stamped
with a complementary pattern, adding visual depth and architectural interest.
Durable, stylish, and highly attractive, this design elevates any entrance with a modern
yet timeless appeal.
Classic Cantilevered Steps
Cantilevered steps create a striking, modern look by allowing each tread to appear
as if it’s floating without visible support. Sleek and minimalist, they enhance
contemporary architecture while maintaining strength and durability.
This design makes a bold statement at entrances, combining style with functional,
comfortable footing.
Exposed Aggregate Cantilevered Steps
These steps combine the modern, floating look of cantilevered treads with the textured beauty of exposed aggregate. Sleek, durable, and slip-resistant, they create a striking architectural feature while providing safe, long-lasting footing for any contemporary entrance.
