    Designed around your garden

    Make more of a change in level

    A sloping garden or a change in level does not have to feel disconnected from the rest of your outdoor space. Carefully positioned steps can link a raised lawn, lower patio or entrance while becoming a feature in their own right.

    The right design depends on the space available, the difference in levels and how you want to move between areas. We work with you on the position, width, shape and paving finish, rather than treating the steps as an afterthought.

    Whether your home has a traditional or contemporary style, we can help choose details that sit comfortably alongside the surrounding paving, planting and walls.

    Block paving steps

    Block paving offers a choice of colours and patterns, with contrasting edges to define the design. It is a useful option where you want the steps to coordinate with an existing or new block paved patio, path or driveway.

    Natural stone steps

    Natural stone, including Indian sandstone, can bring a different character to garden steps. We can discuss suitable paving and edging details to connect the steps with a stone patio or pathway.

    Porcelain finishes

    If you are planning a porcelain patio or path, we can discuss a complementary finish for the steps. The choice of paving and edge details needs to work with the proposed construction as well as the overall appearance.

    Experienced paving specialists

    Careful planning from the ground up

    Building steps involves more than choosing a paving colour. We consider the existing ground, the change in levels and the way the steps meet the areas above and below them.

    Preparation, foundations, drainage and the details of the paving finish all need to be considered together. Where existing steps need replacing, we can discuss their removal and the work required for the new design.

    Our team keeps you informed throughout the project, from agreeing the layout to completing the paving. Our work is guaranteed for 10 years and we hold public liability insurance.

    Customer feedback

    What our customers say about their steps

    “Our restaurant was in need of some new steps to lead from our garden area to the patio doors of our dining area. We also needed a small patio area paved and decided after consultation to go for the block paving option. This was definitely the right choice. It looks brilliant and also seems pretty durable too.”

    Commercial Customer

    St Albans

    “As part of my garden renovation I wanted some steps to be added in order to lead to the elevated part of my garden, rather than a turfed slope. I am so so happy with this and with the new block paved patio area the garden steps are a lovely new feature that is not only more convenient but also looks so much better.”

    Domestic Customer

    St. Albans

    “The driveway at the front of my property is well beow the level of my house and so I was looking for some new steps to make life easier for me. It is hard to explain but previosuly there was a sloping path that leads to the front door but in cold weather it can become icy and very dangerous. I had St Albans Block Paving build new steps for me and I am absolutely gob smacked at how great they are.”

    A joined-up garden design

    Plan your steps with your paving

    Most of the garden steps we build form part of a wider paving project. Planning the steps alongside a patio, garden path or driveway lets us consider the levels, materials and overall layout together.

    This may mean linking a patio to a raised garden, creating steps towards a front entrance or replacing an old set while renewing the adjacent paving. We have also built standalone steps, so you are welcome to contact us about a smaller project and discuss whether we can help.

    We can talk through block paving, Indian sandstone, porcelain and other finishes as part of the design. Visit our St Albans paving homepage to explore the wider range of work we undertake.

    How much do garden steps cost?

    Can you replace existing garden steps?
