Resin garden paths across Somerset
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.
Because paths are narrow, more of the cost is in the edging and set-up than in the resin itself, so the price per square metre is higher than for an open drive.
Across Somerset, the projects we price include linking a patio, path and garden room in one blend, laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool and laying a curving path through a back garden.
Prices in Somerset
For the South West, where typical costs are above the UK average, these are the ranges we would expect before seeing your property.
Resin garden paths: £55–£150 per m².
For a 9 m² path in Somerset: about £550–£900 as an overlay on a sound base, or roughly £950–£1,550 if the old surface has to come out for a dig-out and new permeable base.
Planning in Somerset
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.
Weather and working days
The South West gets more rain than the east of England, especially on higher ground, so permeability and falls matter on every drive. Laying days in Bath are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
Resin garden paths in Somerset: questions
How much is a resin path in Somerset?
As a guide, £55–£150 per m² in Somerset including VAT, depending mainly on whether your existing base can be overlaid. Your written quote follows a free survey.
Do I need planning permission in Somerset?
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.
Who approves dropped kerbs in Somerset?
Dropped kerb consent comes from your council as local highway authority. We help with the application and get your drive ready to meet the new crossing.
