Resin steps across Cumbria
Resin steps are concrete or masonry steps finished with resin bound on the treads and, where wanted, the risers. A contrasting nosing on each step edge makes them easier to see and protects the resin from chipping.
Steps carry a resin drive or patio through a change of level. The structure has to be sound concrete or masonry; resin is the finish, not the step.
In Carlisle we can price work such as laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool, finishing garden steps with resin treads and stone nosings and replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio.

Planning in Cumbria
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
The North West is one of the wetter parts of England, so laying days are picked carefully and drainage under the drive gets extra attention. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Carlisle jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.

Resin steps in Cumbria: questions
Can you lay resin in Cumbria in winter?
On dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, yes. The North West is one of the wetter parts of England, so laying days are picked carefully and drainage under the drive gets extra attention.
Do I need planning permission in Cumbria?
In England, a new or replaced hard surface of more than 5 m² in a front garden is permitted development only if it is porous, or if rainwater drains to a lawn, border or soakaway within the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
Who approves dropped kerbs in Cumbria?
Dropped kerb consent comes from your council as local highway authority. We help with the application and get your drive ready to meet the new crossing.
