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 Washington 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 Washington have existing tarmac or block drives that can be assessed for an overlay or a rebuild.
Typical projects we can quote for in Washington include linking a patio, path and garden room in one blend, finishing garden steps with resin treads and stone nosings and replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio. More about resin steps.

Planning in Washington
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 England, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
The North East has cool winters, so resin is laid in the warmer months or on dry, mild days when ground and air are above about 5°C. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
How it works
Get a guide price online, book a free survey, receive an itemised written quote, then agree a date. Most drives over a ready base are laid in a day.
Resin steps in Washington: questions
Who approves dropped kerbs in Washington?
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 Washington?
In England, a new or replaced hard surface of more than 5 m² in a front garden is permitted development only if it is porous, or if rainwater drains to a lawn, border or soakaway within the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
