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 Coulsdon we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Homes in Coulsdon range from period properties to modern estates, each with its own drainage and access questions.
In Coulsdon we can price work such as finishing garden steps with resin treads and stone nosings, laying a curving path through a back garden and building a gentle ramp to a back door. More about resin patios.

Planning in Coulsdon
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. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Greater London, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
How it works
You start with a guide price, we visit to measure and check the site, you get a written quote, and we book the work for suitable weather.
Resin patios in Coulsdon: questions
Do I need planning permission in Coulsdon?
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.

Can you lay resin in Coulsdon in winter?
