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.
In Currie, as anywhere, the base is the part that decides how long a resin surface lasts. The survey settles whether we overlay, repair or rebuild it. Around Currie, longer drives and rural access are common, so deliveries and mixing space are planned at survey.
Projects we quote in and around Currie include replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio, laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool and laying a curving path through a back garden. More about resin garden paths.
Prices for resin garden paths in Currie
For Lothian, where typical costs are a little below the UK average, these are the ranges we would expect before seeing your property.
Worked example: a 18 m² path in Currie laid as an overlay on sound tarmac or concrete would typically come to about £1,000–£1,550. The same area with a dig-out and new permeable base would be nearer £1,650–£2,650.

Planning in Currie
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 Scotland, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
Lothian is one of the drier parts of Scotland, but cold winters and frost make a well-drained, frost-resistant base important. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Currie jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
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.
Resin garden paths in Currie: questions
Do I need planning permission in Currie?
Scotland's householder permitted development rules allow many hard surfaces at a house where the surface is porous or water drains to a permeable area within the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
Can you match a resin colour I have seen in Currie?
Often, yes. Tell us where you saw it or show us a photo, and we will bring the closest blends to the survey to compare in daylight.
Who approves dropped kerbs in Currie?
Dropped kerb consent comes from your council as roads authority. We help with the application and get your drive ready to meet the new crossing.
