Landscaping & Design - exterior front stairs


Expert: Jonathan Radford - 7/6/2008

Question
Help I have two questions and I truly how you answer back.  First I'm having my in desperate needed L-shape concrete stairs replaced along with two banister. I have a small frame white house and would like to add something to the stairs or something to Paz it a little more, I was think maybe some black slate title. Please help

Answer
Hello Jo

I think that a black coloured flooring would be great against a white-framed house. Try to find a local stone though, as this will suit your area far more and create harmony - that's the main thing to remember.

Good luck
