A grand, sweeping set of curved custom concrete steps provides an elegant main entrance for this rustic lodge-style residence in Puyallup. This five-tiered structure creates a formal and welcoming transition from the lower paver patio to the elevated main doorway. The concrete presents a uniform, smooth finish with a subtle sheen, offering a clean, modern counterpoint to the home's natural stone and heavy timber architecture. Craftsmanship is evident in the precisely rounded bullnose edges on each tread, which soften the lines and add a refined detail. Strategically placed saw-cut control joints are integrated into the design, ensuring the long-term structural integrity of the wide treads by managing thermal expansion and contraction while contributing to the overall symmetrical aesthetic of the entryway.

The concrete's neutral tone contrasts with the warm pavers and stonework.
For smooth concrete entryways, traction can be enhanced by applying a sealer with a non-slip additive. Another technique is to incorporate a very light broom or sand finish during the final troweling. This creates subtle texture for better grip without significantly altering the smooth appearance, ensuring safety in wet conditions.
Proper maintenance involves cleaning the surface and applying a high-quality penetrating sealer every 2-3 years. This protects against moisture intrusion and stains. The structural integrity of curved steps relies on well-placed control joints, which are designed to direct any potential cracking in a controlled, straight line.
