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.
Any resin job in Melksham starts the same way: we check whether your existing surface is sound enough to overlay or needs digging out, because that decides both the price and how long the surface lasts. In and around Melksham, drives often run further from the road, so edging, falls and drainage are planned along the whole length.
Typical projects we can quote for in Melksham include laying a cool, pale surround for a garden pool, linking a patio, path and garden room in one blend and laying a curving path through a back garden. More about resin patios.
Prices for resin patios in Melksham
For the South West, where typical costs are above the UK average, these are the ranges we would expect before seeing your property.
As a guide, a 33 m² patio in the SN12 area would be around £1,600–£2,450 laid over a sound existing base, rising to about £2,650–£4,250 with a dig-out and new permeable base.

Planning in Melksham
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.
General information for England, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
The South West gets more rain than the east of England, especially on higher ground, so permeability and falls matter on every drive. If the weather turns on the day, we move the pour rather than risk a surface that will not cure.

Resin patios in Melksham: questions
Do I need planning permission in Melksham?
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.
Is the price fixed for Melksham 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.
Can you lay resin in Melksham in winter?
On dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, yes. The South West gets more rain than the east of England, especially on higher ground, so permeability and falls matter on every drive.
