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.
Any quote we prepare in Cardiff says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Housing in Cardiff ranges from Victorian terraces to post-war semis and newer estates, and drive sizes vary just as much.
In Cardiff we can price work such as replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio, 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 Cardiff
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. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Cardiff jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.

Resin steps in Cardiff: questions
Can you match a resin colour I have seen in Cardiff?
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.
Do I need planning permission in Cardiff?
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.
Who approves dropped kerbs in Cardiff?
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.
