Hi from a Garden Junk Newbie

18 years ago

Hi. This place like all the others looks pretty cool. Has anyone covered concrete steps with hypertufa? My hubby slipped on ours and I was wondering about covering them with some kind of non-slipping material. Thanks for the help and say, you all are really talented.

Kathy, Hypertufa isn't great for stairs. If you want a non-slip surface, mix some sand with a concrete paint or buy the paint with sand already added. Just paint down the center of the steps like it's a runner. Billie
