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.
In Livingston, as anywhere, the base is the part that decides how long a resin surface lasts. The survey settles whether we overlay, repair or rebuild it. Livingston mixes older streets with newer estates, and many homes have room for two or more cars.
In Livingston we can price work such as finishing garden steps with resin treads and stone nosings, linking a patio, path and garden room in one blend and building a gentle ramp to a back door. More about resin patios.

Weather and working days
