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 Gillingham 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 Gillingham, so the survey comes before any fixed figure.
Across Kent, the projects we price include laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool, linking a patio, path and garden room in one blend and laying a curving path through a back garden. More about resin garden paths.
Prices for resin garden paths in Gillingham
For the South East, where typical costs are above the UK average, these are the ranges we would expect before seeing your property.
Worked example: a 23 m² path in Gillingham laid as an overlay on sound tarmac or concrete would typically come to about £1,550–£2,400. The same area with a dig-out and new permeable base would be nearer £2,550–£4,100.

Planning in Gillingham
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 East is relatively dry, with long laying seasons, but clay soils are common across much of the region and can drain slowly. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Gillingham 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 Gillingham: questions
Do I need planning permission in Gillingham?
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.
