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 St Andrews, 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. In and around St Andrews, drives often run further from the road, so edging, falls and drainage are planned along the whole length.
Typical projects we can quote for in St Andrews include laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool, laying a curving path through a back garden and linking a patio, path and garden room in one blend. More about resin steps.

Planning in St Andrews
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.
General information for Scotland, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
Fife is fairly dry for Scotland, but frost and cold snaps mean resin is laid in suitable conditions only. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so St Andrews jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
How it works
You start with a guide price, we visit to measure and check the site, you get a written quote, and we book the work for suitable weather.
