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 Cowes we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. In and around Cowes, drives often run further from the road, so edging, falls and drainage are planned along the whole length.
In Cowes we can price work such as linking a patio, path and garden room in one blend, replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio and finishing garden steps with resin treads and stone nosings. More about resin patios.
