Resin patios across Cumbria
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 Carlisle include replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio, laying a curving path through a back garden and laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool.
Prices in Cumbria
Guide prices for Cumbria are based on North West rates, which are a little below the UK average. The written quote after your survey is the figure that counts.
Resin patios: £40–£110 per m².
Typical Cumbria figures for a 24 m² patio: £1,150–£1,800 over sound tarmac or concrete; £1,950–£3,100 with a dig-out and new permeable base. Both include VAT.
Planning in Cumbria
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 North West is one of the wetter parts of England, so laying days are picked carefully and drainage under the drive gets extra attention. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Cumbria, but dry, mild winter days can work too.

Resin patios in Cumbria: questions
Do I need planning permission in Cumbria?
In England, a new or replaced hard surface of more than 5 m² in a front garden is permitted development only if it is porous, or if rainwater drains to a lawn, border or soakaway within the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
What postcodes do you cover around Cumbria?
We cover CA, LA and the surrounding districts, including Carlisle and Barrow-in-Furness.
Who approves dropped kerbs in Cumbria?
Dropped kerb consent comes from your council as local highway authority. We help with the application and get your drive ready to meet the new crossing.
