Resin steps across Suffolk
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.
Steps carry a resin drive or patio through a change of level. The structure has to be sound concrete or masonry; resin is the finish, not the step.
In Ipswich we can price work such as building a gentle ramp to a back door, replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio and laying a curving path through a back garden.

Planning in Suffolk
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 East of England is the driest part of the UK, which gives a long resin laying season, though heavy clays in places mean the sub-base needs designing for slow drainage. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Suffolk, but dry, mild winter days can work too.

Do I need planning permission in Suffolk?
