What resin patios involve
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.
Before quoting in Bournemouth we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Plot sizes and existing surfaces vary a lot across Bournemouth, so the survey comes before any fixed figure.
In Bournemouth we can price work such as replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio, finishing garden steps with resin treads and stone nosings and linking a patio, path and garden room in one blend. More about resin patios.
Prices for resin patios in Bournemouth
Guide prices for Bournemouth are based on South West rates, which are above the UK average. The written quote after your survey is the figure that counts.
For a 20 m² patio in Bournemouth: about £1,100–£1,700 as an overlay on a sound base, or roughly £1,850–£2,950 if the old surface has to come out for a dig-out and new permeable base.

Planning in Bournemouth
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.
General information for England, not legal advice.
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. If the weather turns on the day, we move the pour rather than risk a surface that will not cure.
How it works
Get a guide price online, book a free survey, receive an itemised written quote, then agree a date. Most drives over a ready base are laid in a day.
