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 Ilford says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Plot sizes and existing surfaces vary a lot across Ilford, so the survey comes before any fixed figure.
Projects we quote in and around Ilford include replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio, laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool and building a gentle ramp to a back door. More about resin garden paths.
Prices for resin garden paths in Ilford
Guide prices for Ilford are based on London rates, which are well above the UK average. The written quote after your survey is the figure that counts.
For a 17 m² path in Ilford: about £1,200–£1,900 as an overlay on a sound base, or roughly £2,000–£3,250 if the old surface has to come out for a dig-out and new permeable base.

Planning in Ilford
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
London is one of the drier parts of the UK, but heavy summer downpours on small, mostly paved plots are exactly what front-garden drainage rules were written for. Laying days in Ilford are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.

Resin garden paths in Ilford: questions
How soon can you survey in Ilford?
Call 0800 088 6341 or use the quote tool and we will offer survey dates. Surveys are free and run all year.
Can you match a resin colour I have seen in Ilford?
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.
Do I need planning permission in Ilford?
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.
