Benefits of a Concrete Staircase

There are many positive effects endured from the choice of concrete stairs. To list but a few:

Accoustics

Finally the importance of accoustics is being integrated in modern architecture today. Concrete offers far superior noise resistance compared to any other staircase material. Benefitting neighbours, and we are beginning to notice households converting to concrete stairs also. Commercial premises benefit from noise reduction, and greater hard wearing durability, and better grip in comparisson to metal surfaces.

Durability

Concrete is one of the most durable materials on our planet, and staircases, along with doorways are the main-wearing part of most properties. External staircases last for on average 60 years, in comparisson to 15 years on average for a wooden staircase, and 24 years for a metallic staircase.

Fire Protection

Steel staircases are known for their weakness in fire conditions. Concrete performs far more protection against extreme thermal conditions.
