Resin patios across Moray
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.
Old slabs can sometimes be overlaid, but only if every slab is fully bedded and level. Slabs that rock, or that were laid on spot-bedding, are lifted and replaced with a concrete or porous asphalt base first.
Across Moray, the projects we price include replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio, laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool and building a gentle ramp to a back door.

Planning in Moray
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.
Weather and working days
North East Scotland is relatively dry for Scotland but cold, so the laying season is shorter and a free-draining base helps with frost. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Elgin jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.

Resin patios in Moray: questions
How much is a resin patio in Moray?
As a guide, £40–£105 per m² in Moray including VAT, depending mainly on whether your existing base can be overlaid. Your written quote follows a free survey.
Do I need planning permission in Moray?
Scotland's householder permitted development rules allow many hard surfaces at a house where the surface is porous or water drains to a permeable area within the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
Is the price fixed for Moray 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.
