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.
Any quote we prepare in Southampton says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Housing in Southampton ranges from Victorian terraces to post-war semis and newer estates, and drive sizes vary just as much.
Projects we quote in and around Southampton include replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio, 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 Southampton
Labour and material costs in the South East run above the UK average, and the guide figures below reflect that. They include VAT and are confirmed after a survey.
As a guide, a 29 m² patio in the SO14 area would be around £1,450–£2,250 laid over a sound existing base, rising to about £2,450–£3,900 with a dig-out and new permeable base.
| Service | Guide price inc VAT |
|---|---|
| Resin patios | £50–£135 per m² |
| Resin bonded driveways | £40–£110 per m² |
| Driveway drainage and soakaways | £55–£125 per linear metre |

Planning in Southampton
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 East is relatively dry, with long laying seasons, but clay soils are common across much of the region and can drain slowly. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Southampton jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
How it works
Guide price first, then a free visit, then a line-by-line quote. Nothing is booked until you have the specification in writing.
