Resin patios across the Scottish Borders
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.
Resin bound works well on patios because foot traffic is light and the finish is comfortable underfoot. A slightly finer aggregate blend gives a smoother surface for furniture and bare feet.
Across the Scottish Borders, the projects we price include replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio, laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool and laying a curving path through a back garden.
Prices in the Scottish Borders
Labour and material costs in the South of Scotland run below the UK average, and the guide figures below reflect that. They include VAT and are confirmed after a survey.
Resin patios: £40–£105 per m².
As a guide, a 28 m² patio in the TD area would be around £1,100–£1,750 laid over a sound existing base, rising to about £1,850–£3,000 with a dig-out and new permeable base.
Planning in the Scottish Borders
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
The South of Scotland mixes wet western hills with drier eastern lowlands, and frost is common in winter. Laying days in Hawick are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
