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 Carshalton we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Carshalton mixes older streets with newer estates, and many homes have room for two or more cars.
Across Greater London, the projects we price include linking a patio, path and garden room in one blend, laying a curving path through a back garden and finishing garden steps with resin treads and stone nosings. More about resin patios.
Prices for resin patios in Carshalton
Labour and material costs in London run well above the UK average, and the guide figures below reflect that. They include VAT and are confirmed after a survey.
Worked example: a 31 m² patio in Carshalton laid as an overlay on sound tarmac or concrete would typically come to about £1,650–£2,600. The same area with a dig-out and new permeable base would be nearer £2,800–£4,450.

Planning in Carshalton
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
London is one of the drier parts of the UK, but heavy summer downpours on small, mostly paved plots are exactly what front-garden drainage rules were written for. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.

Resin patios in Carshalton: questions
Do I need planning permission in Carshalton?
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.
