What resin steps involve
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.
In Kirkcaldy, as anywhere, the base is the part that decides how long a resin surface lasts. The survey settles whether we overlay, repair or rebuild it. Homes in Kirkcaldy range from period properties to modern estates, each with its own drainage and access questions.
Typical projects we can quote for in Kirkcaldy include laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool, replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio and laying a curving path through a back garden. More about resin steps.

Weather and working days
Fife is fairly dry for Scotland, but frost and cold snaps mean resin is laid in suitable conditions only. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Fife, but dry, mild winter days can work too.

Resin steps in Kirkcaldy: questions
Can you lay resin in Kirkcaldy in winter?
On dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, yes. Fife is fairly dry for Scotland, but frost and cold snaps mean resin is laid in suitable conditions only.
Do I need planning permission in Kirkcaldy?
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.

Yes, once the scope and specification are agreed in writing. If hidden ground conditions turn up, we explain and agree any change with you before doing extra work.
