Resin patios across Suffolk
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 Suffolk, the projects we price include linking a patio, path and garden room in one blend, laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool and laying a curving path through a back garden.

Resin patios: £50–£130 per m².
As a guide, a 12 m² patio in the IP area would be around £650–£1,050 laid over a sound existing base, rising to about £1,100–£1,800 with a dig-out and new permeable base.
Planning in Suffolk
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 East of England is the driest part of the UK, which gives a long resin laying season, though heavy clays in places mean the sub-base needs designing for slow drainage. If the weather turns on the day, we move the pour rather than risk a surface that will not cure.
Resin patios in Suffolk: questions
Do I need planning permission in Suffolk?
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.
How much is a resin patio in Suffolk?
As a guide, £50–£130 per m² in Suffolk including VAT, depending mainly on whether your existing base can be overlaid. Your written quote follows a free survey.
