Granite Steps
Yesterday we had these granite steps installed. We bought the granite from a quarry about a mile away. But, the problem was how do we get the get the pieces home. Fortunately we found a mason who would pick the pieces up, prepare the base, and put the pieces together.
The top piece is 3 feet by 4 feet and 7-1/2 inches thick...that's heavy. The pieces on the sides are called "cheek" pieces and they hold the top slab up. The front step is 4 feet wide and 1 feet deep, and also 7-1/2 inches high.
The steps are a bit dirty but they will look good when cleaned off.

It looks really nice after cleaning,because granite steps and granite slabs are more beautiful when they are clean and shinning.
