What resin garden paths involve
A resin path is a narrow resin bound surface used for garden walkways, side passages and front paths. It is laid on a compacted base with edging both sides, is permeable, and can follow tight curves without cutting.
Any quote we prepare in Reading says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Reading has everything from tight terraced frontages to large suburban drives, so no two quotes look the same.
Projects we quote in and around Reading include building a gentle ramp to a back door, laying a curving path through a back garden and finishing garden steps with resin treads and stone nosings. More about resin garden paths.
Prices for resin garden paths in Reading
Guide prices for Reading are based on South East rates, which are above the UK average. The written quote after your survey is the figure that counts.

Planning in Reading
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 South East is relatively dry, with long laying seasons, but clay soils are common across much of the region and can drain slowly. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Berkshire, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
How it works
You start with a guide price, we visit to measure and check the site, you get a written quote, and we book the work for suitable weather.
