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 Harpenden says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Harpenden mixes older streets with newer estates, and many homes have room for two or more cars.
In Harpenden we can price work such as replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio, linking a patio, path and garden room in one blend and laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool. More about resin patios.

General information for England, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
The East of England is the driest part of the UK, which gives a long resin laying season, though heavy clays in places mean the sub-base needs designing for slow drainage. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
How it works
The steps are simple: guide price, free survey, written quote with a fixed price once the specification is agreed, then a date that suits you and the weather.
