Greetings,


As per picture attached, we have Communal Steps to the block of flat that we have, and having just had the building repainted, we would like to enhance the entrance steps to improve the aesthetic of the building.

As you can see on pictures, steps have been repaired with a patch of concrete I believe.

The current surface is a layer of Asphalt that has been applied to the Entrance Steps and the edge.


Question:

What are your suggestions?

· Paving / Tiling ?

· Re-asphalt ?

· Resin Bound ?

· Steps to be painted with special paint?

While looking on google, we found the below paint:

The filler and the anti slip version is what I would use. The narrower concrete steps I would powerwash
 
Thanks Nige F for your feedback. My question have you had personal experience with that brand and product? Any specific reason you are recommending Watco product rather than the other one?
 
I covered a set of metal steps with Watco anti slip at an hotel - lasted well with regular use - outside steps down to the kitchen.

The shine was pretty much as the photo of the Grip Master with the guy walking on it;)
