Resin patios across Edinburgh
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.
Patios next to the house need to fall away from the walls and stay below the damp-proof course, so levels at back doors and bifolds are checked on survey.
Across Edinburgh, the projects we price include linking a patio, path and garden room in one blend, laying a curving path through a back garden and replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio.
Prices in Edinburgh
Guide prices for Edinburgh are based on Lothian 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 Edinburgh figures for a 31 m² patio: £1,300–£2,000 over sound tarmac or concrete; £2,150–£3,400 with a dig-out and new permeable base. Both include VAT.
Planning in Edinburgh
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
Lothian is one of the drier parts of Scotland, but cold winters and frost make a well-drained, frost-resistant base important. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
