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 Galashiels, 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. Around Galashiels, longer drives and rural access are common, so deliveries and mixing space are planned at survey.
Typical projects we can quote for in Galashiels include linking a patio, path and garden room in one blend, replacing rocking patio slabs with a seamless resin patio and building a gentle ramp to a back door. More about resin patios.

Weather and working days
The South of Scotland mixes wet western hills with drier eastern lowlands, and frost is common in winter. If the weather turns on the day, we move the pour rather than risk a surface that will not cure.
