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 Cardiff says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Across Cardiff, many front drives are compact, so access, skips and parking for the crew are planned at survey.
Projects we quote in and around Cardiff include building a gentle ramp to a back door, laying a curving path through a back garden and linking a patio, path and garden room in one blend. More about resin garden paths.
Prices for resin garden paths in Cardiff
Guide prices for Cardiff are based on South Wales rates, which are below the UK average. The written quote after your survey is the figure that counts.
For a 17 m² path in Cardiff: about £900–£1,400 as an overlay on a sound base, or roughly £1,500–£2,400 if the old surface has to come out for a dig-out and new permeable base.
| Service | Guide price inc VAT |
|---|---|
| Resin garden paths | £45–£125 per m² |
| Resin bonded driveways | £30–£90 per m² |
| Driveway drainage and soakaways | £45–£100 per linear metre |

Planning in Cardiff
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. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in South Glamorgan, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
How it works
