Accessible resin ramps across Edinburgh
An accessible resin ramp is a sloping path to a door or between levels, built on a concrete or compacted base and finished in resin bound or anti-slip resin bonded. It gives step-free access with good grip and no trip edges.
A usable ramp is mostly geometry: a gentle gradient, level landings at doors and at turns, and handrails where needed. For new public buildings Approved Document M sets out gradients; at home, the same guidance is a sensible starting point.
Typical projects we can quote for in Queensferry include laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool, building a gentle ramp to a back door and replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio.

Planning in Edinburgh
Patios, paths and steps in a rear garden are generally permitted development for houses. Listed buildings, flats and raised platforms are the main exceptions, and any part that is in front of the house follows the front-garden drainage rules.
Weather and working days
Lothian is one of the drier parts of Scotland, but cold winters and frost make a well-drained, frost-resistant base important. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Queensferry jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.

Accessible resin ramps in Edinburgh: questions
Do I need planning permission in Edinburgh?
Scotland's householder permitted development rules allow many hard surfaces at a house where the surface is porous or water drains to a permeable area within the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
Who approves dropped kerbs in Edinburgh?
Dropped kerb consent comes from your council as roads authority. We help with the application and get your drive ready to meet the new crossing.
Can you lay resin in Edinburgh in winter?
On dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, yes. Lothian is one of the drier parts of Scotland, but cold winters and frost make a well-drained, frost-resistant base important.
