What We Do With Staircases
Cruger Contracting LLC designs and builds exterior staircases throughout Fishkill, Dutchess County, combining safety, structure, and craftsmanship in every project. The company constructs stone, block, and concrete staircases that provide smooth, durable transitions between outdoor spaces while complementing each property’s architecture. Cruger Contracting LLC’s team evaluates grade, soil stability, and elevation before construction to ensure every staircase in Fishkill is built on a solid, compacted base that resists movement through NY freeze–thaw cycles. Steps are laid with precise rise and run ratios, even spacing, and level alignment to guarantee long-term safety and comfort. The company integrates drainage solutions beneath and around each staircase to prevent erosion and frost heaving, extending structural lifespan. Cruger Contracting LLC also restores damaged or uneven exterior steps throughout Dutchess County, resetting loose stone, repairing cracked treads, and correcting improper slope. Every staircase installation reflects the company’s commitment to reliable construction, clean detailing, and lasting visual appeal.

Cruger Construction provided high quality service at a fair cost. James the owner was very knowledgeable, communicated very timely and was a pleasure to do business with. His crew was just as friendly and we are very pleased with the work he provided. Will use again on future landscaping projects.

Beautiful job. Very personable and reliable.
Lauretta C.
We would absolutely hire Cruger Contracting again. James was quick to return our call and came right away. That afternoon he had come back with a very fair quote. Regraded our front lawn with 40 yards of screened soil, also laid a drainage pipe from a basement sump pump approximately 100ft underground. They finished the job with seeding and covered with straw mulch. Fantastic job—thank you, would highly recommend.
Craig P.
I would highly recommend Cruger Contracting for all your hardscape needs. James and his staff are real professionals with many years of experience in the construction industry and landscaping. He is super prompt and responsive to your needs and with minimal explanation he made exactly what I was looking for. If you are looking for someone who is professional, courteous and neat, and does it all at a reasonable price—look no further.
