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.
Before quoting in Gelligaer we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Plots around Gelligaer are often generous, so turning areas and longer runs of edging are part of many quotes.
Projects we quote in and around Gelligaer include replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio, laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool and finishing garden steps with resin treads and stone nosings. More about resin garden paths.

Planning in Gelligaer
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 Wales, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
South Wales is wetter than most of England, so a permeable build or a planned route for water is essential on every drive. Laying days in Gelligaer are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
How it works

Resin garden paths in Gelligaer: questions
Do I need planning permission in Gelligaer?
Wales has its own permitted development rules on the same principle: a front-garden hard surface should be porous or drain to a permeable area on the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
Is the price fixed for Gelligaer jobs?
Yes, once the scope and specification are agreed in writing. If hidden ground conditions turn up, we explain and agree any change with you before doing extra work.
How much is a resin path in Gelligaer?
As a guide, £45–£125 per m² in Gelligaer including VAT, depending mainly on whether your existing base can be overlaid. Your written quote follows a free survey.
