Replacing steps in Canton
With newer housing (half built after 1977), Canton step work is often deck-to-patio steps, garage entries and wider front steps with a stamped finish. Canton mixes single-family homes (72%) with multi-family buildings that have more entries, so step work here runs from a three-riser stoop to the rear stairs on a three-family.
On a typical Canton lot, new steps get footings dug to 42 inches, rebar tied into the steps, and treads pitched just enough to shed water.
The median home in Canton was built in 1977, newer than the 1960s house that's typical statewide. That's newer than nearby Bloomfield, where the median is 1970.
