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.
Before quoting in Merthyr Tydfil we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Many homes in Merthyr Tydfil have existing tarmac or block drives that can be assessed for an overlay or a rebuild.
Across Mid Glamorgan, the projects we price include linking a patio, path and garden room in one blend, building a gentle ramp to a back door and laying a curving path through a back garden. More about resin steps.

Planning in Merthyr Tydfil
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 Wales, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
South Wales is wetter than most of England, so a permeable build or a planned route for water is essential on every drive. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.

Resin steps in Merthyr Tydfil: questions
Who approves dropped kerbs in Merthyr Tydfil?
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.
Do I need planning permission in Merthyr Tydfil?
Wales has its own permitted development rules on the same principle: a front-garden hard surface should be porous or drain to a permeable area on the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
Can you match a resin colour I have seen in Merthyr Tydfil?
Often, yes. Tell us where you saw it or show us a photo, and we will bring the closest blends to the survey to compare in daylight.
