Resin pool surrounds across Dorset
A resin pool surround is a resin bound surface laid around a swimming pool or hot tub. It drains quickly, has no joints to trap water, and a light-coloured blend stays cooler in the sun than dark paving.
The detail at the pool coping is planned with your pool installer, so the resin finishes cleanly against the coping stones and falls away from the water.
In Bournemouth we can price work such as replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio, laying a curving path through a back garden and building a gentle ramp to a back door.
Prices in Dorset
For the South West, where typical costs are above the UK average, these are the ranges we would expect before seeing your property.
Resin pool surrounds: £50–£130 per m².
As a guide, a 30 m² patio in the BH area would be around £1,450–£2,250 laid over a sound existing base, rising to about £2,400–£3,850 with a dig-out and new permeable base.
Planning in Dorset
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 South West gets more rain than the east of England, especially on higher ground, so permeability and falls matter on every drive. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
