Resin patios across Cornwall
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.
In Redruth we can price work such as linking a patio, path and garden room in one blend, laying a curving path through a back garden and laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool.
Prices in Cornwall
For the South West, where typical costs are above the UK average, these are the ranges we would expect before seeing your property.
Resin patios: £50–£130 per m².
For a 23 m² patio in Cornwall: about £1,250–£2,000 as an overlay on a sound base, or roughly £2,100–£3,400 if the old surface has to come out for a dig-out and new permeable base.
Planning in Cornwall
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 Redruth are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
