Resin Paths & Surfacing
Durable, permeable resin-bound paths and surfaces laid over a prepared base for a clean finish that drains well and stands up to everyday use.
A surface that looks good and drains well
Resin-bound surfacing mixes natural aggregate with a clear resin and trowels it onto a prepared base to give a smooth, seamless finish. Because it is permeable, rainwater drains straight through rather than pooling or running off, which helps with surface water and keeps the finish clean.
The result is an attractive, hard-wearing surface with no loose stones to scatter, suitable for garden paths, patios and other walked-on areas. As with any surface, the finish is only as good as what sits underneath it, so a sound, properly prepared base matters.
If you are considering a resin-bound path or surface, talk to us about the area, how it is used and what is there now. We will give you a straight answer on whether it suits your project.

Common questions
Resin-bound surfacing is well suited to paths, patios and walked-on areas. Driveways carry vehicle loads and need a base and specification to match, so it is best to discuss the specific area with us so we can advise honestly on what it needs.
Not always. Where there is a sound, suitable existing base it can sometimes be surfaced over. Where there is not, a proper base needs preparing first. The finish is only as reliable as what is underneath, so this is something we always assess.
A correctly laid resin-bound surface is permeable, so rainwater drains through the surface rather than sitting on top. This helps manage surface water and keeps the finish looking clean.
Resin-bound surfaces use natural aggregates, which come in a range of tones from pale gravels to warmer golds and darker blends. We can talk through options that suit your property.
