Resin patios across Argyll and Bute
A resin patio is a resin bound surface laid in a garden for seating and dining areas. Because it is trowelled in one piece, it has no joints for weeds or ants, it can follow curves easily, and it can be laid over sound concrete or old slabs that are solidly bedded.
Resin bound works well on patios because foot traffic is light and the finish is comfortable underfoot. A slightly finer aggregate blend gives a smoother surface for furniture and bare feet.
Typical projects we can quote for in Helensburgh include laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool, replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio and finishing garden steps with resin treads and stone nosings.
Prices in Argyll and Bute
For the West of Scotland, where typical costs are below the UK average, these are the ranges we would expect before seeing your property.
Resin patios: £40–£105 per m².
For a 35 m² patio in Argyll and Bute: about £1,400–£2,200 as an overlay on a sound base, or roughly £2,350–£3,750 if the old surface has to come out for a dig-out and new permeable base.
Planning in Argyll and Bute
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 West of Scotland is one of the wettest parts of the UK, which makes permeable driveways and careful laying-day planning especially important. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Helensburgh jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
