Q: Are there any alternatives to deck footings?

• <div><p>Deck pier blocks are one alternative to traditional deck footings. Unlike poured concrete and buried post footings, deck blocks <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/deck-footings-no-digging.htm">don&rsquo;t require digging</a> or pouring. They&rsquo;re best for small or low-to-the-ground decks. Keep in mind, though, that not all areas allow the use of deck pier blocks, so consult your local building codes before choosing them for your deck.</p></div>

Q: How long do concrete pathways last?

• <div><p>A concrete pathway is very durable and can last upward of 30 years under normal conditions. Heavy snowfall and excessive heat may decrease this lifespan over time, as can vehicle traffic and salt applications during freezing conditions. Homeowners in extreme climates might notice cracking and deterioration after just 15 years, while those in more temperate climates should see multiple decades of life from their concrete. </p></div>

Q: How thick do stair treads need to be?

• <div><p>Standard residential stair treads need to be at least 1 inch thick. Open staircases without risers must be at least 1-1/2 inches thick. </p><p> </p></div>

Q: Should I repair or replace crumbling concrete steps before adding a railing?

• <div><p>Crumbling concrete steps will affect your ability to drill into the material and affix a sturdy railing. If the damage is primarily cosmetic, you might be able to DIY the repair with a patch kit. If the concrete is badly crumbling, hire a professional who specializes in pouring concrete. The average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-repair-chipped-broken-concrete-step-steps-lead-front-door.htm">concrete step repair cost</a> is <b>$500</b> from a professional, but the extent of the damage will determine your actual cost. The professional may recommend a replacement if the damage is extensive.</p></div>

Q: Is it less expensive to lay concrete or pavers?

• <div><p>While it may be less expensive initially to lay <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pavers-vs-concrete-patio.htm">concrete vs. pavers</a>, the long-term expenses that come with repairing concrete may prove to be less cost-friendly than simply replacing a few damaged pavers. On top of that, stamped concrete may only last for 25 years compared to pavers, which can last over 50 years.</p></div>
