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.
In Gateshead, as anywhere, the base is the part that decides how long a resin surface lasts. The survey settles whether we overlay, repair or rebuild it. Plot sizes and existing surfaces vary a lot across Gateshead, so the survey comes before any fixed figure.
Projects we quote in and around Gateshead include linking a patio, path and garden room in one blend, replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio and laying a curving path through a back garden. More about resin garden paths.
