Granite treads, risers and landings with a safe textured nosing, for indoor staircases, porches and entry steps.
Stairs take more abuse than almost any other surface. Feet, shoes, grit and weather wear down carpet, wood and softer stone, but granite stays crisp for decades. A granite staircase gives an entry or porch a solid, substantial look, and the stone resists the chipping and scuffing that ruin concrete and brick. In Nashville, with its mix of historic brick homes and newer houses, granite steps add a timeless detail.
Safety and fit come first. Treads need a nosing profile that is comfortable and a surface that is not slick when wet. Heights and depths must be consistent, so we measure each step and plan the stone to match. Outdoor steps need good drainage and a solid base. We template every tread, coordinate fabrication and install so each step is level and secure. We also look at handrails, lighting and the transition at the top and bottom of the stairs, because a stone staircase should feel solid and look intentional from the first step to the last.
Honed, flamed or textured finishes give better grip than a polished face, especially outdoors.
Consistent step heights matter for safety. We measure and shim so every step is uniform.
A rounded or beveled nosing is comfortable and resists chipping. We show profile samples.
Stone needs a firm, stable base. We check and flag repairs before setting.

You tell us about your counters and what you want to change, from a repair to a whole-kitchen install, and we set a visit that fits your day.
We visit, measure, check the cabinets, walls and plumbing and talk through stone, edges, seams and sinks.
We help you choose a slab at local stone yards, plan the layout and give you an itemized written estimate with options.
Once cabinets are set and level, we template the real room, confirm cutouts and seams and send the plan to fabrication.
The stone is cut and polished, old counters are removed and the new granite is carried in, set, seamed and sealed.
We walk the finished counters with you, explain care, run the water test and leave the space clean.
Polished granite can be. We recommend honed, flamed or textured finishes for stairs and add a safe nosing.
Yes, with the right finish, thickness and base.
We can reuse them if sound, or replace them with stone.
Curved work is possible and is discussed at the estimate.
We plan the layout so color and pattern flow evenly.
