Resin pool surrounds across the Scottish Borders
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.
Around water the priorities are grip, drainage and comfort under bare feet. A finer, lighter aggregate with an anti-slip additive gives a surface that sheds water quickly and does not get as hot as dark stone.
Typical projects we can quote for in Hawick include laying a curving path through a back garden, laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool and replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio.

Planning in the Scottish Borders
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 of Scotland mixes wet western hills with drier eastern lowlands, and frost is common in winter. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in the Scottish Borders, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
