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 Exeter says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Exeter has a broad mix of housing, from terraces near the centre to detached homes on the edges.
Across Devon, the projects we price include linking a patio, path and garden room in one blend, laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool and laying a curving path through a back garden. More about resin garden paths.

Planning in Exeter
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 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.
How it works
Guide price first, then a free visit, then a line-by-line quote. Nothing is booked until you have the specification in writing.
Resin garden paths in Exeter: questions
Do I need planning permission in Exeter?
In England, a new or replaced hard surface of more than 5 m² in a front garden is permitted development only if it is porous, or if rainwater drains to a lawn, border or soakaway within the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
How much is a resin path in Exeter?
As a guide, £55–£150 per m² in Exeter including VAT, depending mainly on whether your existing base can be overlaid. Your written quote follows a free survey.
