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 Stranraer we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Plots around Stranraer are often generous, so turning areas and longer runs of edging are part of many quotes.
In Stranraer we can price work such as laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool, finishing garden steps with resin treads and stone nosings and replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio. More about resin patios.
