Resin steps across the Scottish Borders
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.
Each tread is formed with a slight fall so water runs off, and the nosings are set first so the resin is trowelled up to a firm edge. In shaded spots an anti-slip additive is recommended.
Typical projects we can quote for in Hawick include laying a curving path through a back garden, finishing garden steps with resin treads and stone nosings and replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio.

Planning in the Scottish Borders
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 South of Scotland mixes wet western hills with drier eastern lowlands, and frost is common in winter. If the weather turns on the day, we move the pour rather than risk a surface that will not cure.
