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 Swanley says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Plots around Swanley are often generous, so turning areas and longer runs of edging are part of many quotes.
Typical projects we can quote for in Swanley include linking a patio, path and garden room in one blend, building a gentle ramp to a back door and replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio. More about resin garden paths.

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 Swanley jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
