Resin tree pits across the Lothians
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.
Across the Lothians, the projects we price include surfacing a car park with marked bays, adding anti-slip resin to an entrance ramp and resurfacing an office forecourt in phases so it stays open.
Prices in the Lothians
Guide prices for the Lothians are based on Lothian rates, which are a little below the UK average. The written quote after your survey is the figure that counts.

Planning in the Lothians
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
Lothian is one of the drier parts of Scotland, but cold winters and frost make a well-drained, frost-resistant base important. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Livingston jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.

Resin tree pits in the Lothians: questions
How soon can you survey in the Lothians?
Call 0800 088 6341 or use the quote tool and we will offer survey dates. Surveys are free and run all year.
Is the price fixed for the Lothians 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.
Do I need planning permission in the Lothians?
Scotland's householder permitted development rules allow many hard surfaces at a house where the surface is porous or water drains to a permeable area within the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
