Contractor poured an exterior slab too low resulting in the exterior metal stairs hanging about 3" above t/slab. I need to provide a 'ramp' up to the bottom of the stairs for accessibility and anchorage. The material needs to go from feathered edge to approximately 3" over an area around 12 SF. Anybody know of a worthy product?

 
I'd call Euclid, Sika, Five Star, BASF or Atlas. And I would recess the grout into the existing slab and avoid the feathered edge.
 
Agree with JC...feathering doesn't work...even though the manufacturers tell you it's ok to do it.

Make sure the landing is level when you finish...code requirement.
