Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about resin bound steps

Answers about slip resistance, coastal durability, and installation

Wet steps cause falls risking injury to elderly and children. A single fall can mean hospital visits, insurance claims, and liability concerns. Moss growth worsens each season, making steps dangerous year-round. Early anti-slip surfacing prevents accidents and eliminates ongoing slip risk.

Salt air accelerates concrete cracking at step edges. Ignoring a small crack leads to complete nosing failure within 12-18 months, requiring full step reconstruction costing £2,000-£4,000. Early resin surfacing seals existing steps and prevents salt penetration, saving major replacement costs.

No. Anti-slip aggregates create grip texture meeting BS 7976-2 slip resistance standards. Angular stones embedded in resin provide traction in wet weather, unlike smooth concrete or worn stone. Coastal-grade resin maintains grip even with salt air exposure.

Yes, if the base is sound. Installers assess step condition, repair cracks, and apply primer before resin. Damaged or unstable steps need rebuilding first. Resin bonds to prepared concrete, creating a durable weatherproof surface over existing structures.

15-20 years with salt-resistant UV-stable resin. Coastal exposure and foot traffic affect lifespan. Standard resin degrades faster in salt air. Proper preparation and reinforced nosing detailing extend durability. Occasional sweeping maintains appearance.

Generally no for existing step resurfacing. New external staircases or changes to listed buildings may need approval. Period properties in conservation areas should check with Southend-on-Sea Council. Installers advise on local requirements during site assessment.
