Our Resin Bound Patio Process

A resin bound driveway offers a modern, attractive and practical surface created by combining natural aggregates with a high-quality resin. The stones are fully bound together, forming a smooth and durable finish that instantly enhances the look of any property.

1. Initial Site Assessment

Before any work begins, we carry out a full assessment of the area:

  • Checking existing ground levels
  • Identifying drainage routes
  • Reviewing access and layout
  • Discussing design choices, colours and edging options

2. Ground Preparation
A resin bound patio is only as strong as the base beneath it. We begin by preparing the ground thoroughly:

  • Removing existing turf, slabs or old surfaces
  • Excavating where required to achieve the correct depth
  • Ensuring the ground is levelled and compacted
  • Laying the appropriate sub–base for stability

 

3. Installing a Solid Base Layer
To support the resin bound surface, we install a robust base, typically using:

  • Permeable tarmac
  • Concrete
  • Or a specially designed porous base system

The type of base used depends on the garden layout, intended use and drainage requirements. A strong, stable base ensures the resin bound patios remain durable and resistant to movement.

4. Mixing the Resin and Aggregate
We prepare the resin bound mixture on site:

  • High-quality UV–stable resin is used to prevent discolouration
  • Natural aggregates are mixed thoroughly for an even blend
  • The mixture is prepared immediately before laying to achieve the best consistency

5. Hand-Laying and Finishing
Our skilled team trowels the mixture by hand:

  • The resin is laid evenly and compacted carefully
  • Edges and borders are shaped neatly
  • The entire surface is checked for consistency and smoothness
  • Any design features, shapes or patterns are integrated at this stage

 

6. Curing and Final Checks
Once the surface is laid:

  • The patio is left to cure for several hours
  • We carry out final inspections
  • Edging, borders and surrounding areas are tidied
  • The patio is then ready for use once fully set
  • This ensures a strong, resilient finish that looks exceptional.
