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 Colinton says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Plots around Colinton are often generous, so turning areas and longer runs of edging are part of many quotes.
Across Edinburgh, the projects we price include building a gentle ramp to a back door, linking a patio, path and garden room in one blend and finishing garden steps with resin treads and stone nosings. More about resin garden paths.
