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 Gillingham we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Plot sizes and existing surfaces vary a lot across Gillingham, so the survey comes before any fixed figure.
Projects we quote in and around Gillingham include building a gentle ramp to a back door, laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool and laying a curving path through a back garden. More about resin patios.
Prices for resin patios in Gillingham
Guide prices for Gillingham are based on South East rates, which are above the UK average. The written quote after your survey is the figure that counts.
For a 12 m² patio in Gillingham: about £700–£1,100 as an overlay on a sound base, or roughly £1,150–£1,850 if the old surface has to come out for a dig-out and new permeable base.

Planning in Gillingham
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. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
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.
Resin patios in Gillingham: questions
Can you lay resin in Gillingham in winter?
On dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, yes. The South East is relatively dry, with long laying seasons, but clay soils are common across much of the region and can drain slowly.
Do I need planning permission in Gillingham?
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.
Is the price fixed for Gillingham jobs?
Yes, once the scope and specification are agreed in writing. If hidden ground conditions turn up, we explain and agree any change with you before doing extra work.
