Resin tree pits across Cornwall
A resin tree pit is a porous resin bound surface laid around the base of a tree in paving. It lets water and air through to the roots, removes the trip hazard of an open pit, and can be laid flush with surrounding paving.
Tree pits use a coarser blend so the surface stays porous. A gap is left around the trunk so the tree can grow, and the pit can be cut back and extended in future years.
Projects we quote in and around Redruth include surfacing a car park with marked bays, laying permeable paths on a new housing scheme and resurfacing an office forecourt in phases so it stays open.

Planning in Cornwall
Commercial and development sites often have planning conditions on surfacing and drainage, including sustainable drainage. We work to the approved drawings and conditions and can supply product details for discharge of conditions.
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. Laying days in Redruth are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
Resin tree pits in Cornwall: questions
Who approves dropped kerbs in Cornwall?
Dropped kerb consent comes from your council as local highway authority. We help with the application and get your drive ready to meet the new crossing.
How soon can you survey in Cornwall?
Call 0800 088 6341 or use the quote tool and we will offer survey dates. Surveys are free and run all year.
Do I need planning permission in Cornwall?
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.
