Brick Steps

All of our services are designed around our goal to help make your yard a joy to come home to.

  • Construction of walls and steps for beauty and utility - to make your yard more usable, and give you better drainage.
  • Brick offers a centuries old classic look that has proven it can pass the test of time.
  • Brick steps can be constructed on a concrete and cinder block foundation for steps that should outlast the youngest of us.
  • Bricks  could also be used as treads on segmental retaining wall risers.  These steps are constructed on a 6-inch base of compacted crushed stone, and at least 8-inches of wall stones below grade, but they do not require a concrete foundation so they are more economical than masonry  steps. (There are a lot of examples of this type of step with flagstone treads on our Flagstone Steps page, and construction can be seen on our Step Construction page.
  • More economically still are steps constructed with tie risers with brick treads inside.

Please view some examples of our brick steps below.

All steps shown were constructed by Robert J. Kleinberg Landscape Design and Construction.

Tie and Brick Steps - Media, Delaware County, PA 19063
Pressure treated softwood ties are used here to make nice steps with either six inch risers with brick treads.  Ties are anchored to the ground with 2-foot reinforcing rods and are nailed together with 40-penny galvanized nails.  Ties from lower steps extend under upper step but no additional foundation is used so these steps are the most economical.
