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.
Before quoting in Acocks Green we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Many homes in Acocks Green have existing tarmac or block drives that can be assessed for an overlay or a rebuild.
Typical projects we can quote for in Acocks Green include laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool, laying a curving path through a back garden and linking a patio, path and garden room in one blend. More about resin garden paths.

Do I need planning permission in Acocks Green?
