Resin Patio Surfacing in Orpington
Resin-bound surfacing provides smooth, permeable surfaces that are ideally suited for patios and garden pathways. The finished result is long-lasting, low-maintenance, and available in an extensive selection of aggregate colours to complement different property styles.
Our resin surfacing specialists have completed countless resin-surfaced patio installations and can tailor any patio area to meet your unique requirements in Orpington.
What Is Resin Surfacing?
We blend natural aggregates—typically stone particles ranging from 2-6mm in size—with clear polyurethane resin, then spread the mixture onto a correctly prepared base using trowels. Once cured, you’re left with a solid surface where the individual stones remain visible yet are securely bound together, creating an attractive textured finish that feels comfortable underfoot.
The resin-bound approach is permeable—rainwater filters through the surface rather than collecting on top. This is essential for satisfying drainage regulations and practical functionality, as you won’t have puddles forming after rainfall.
New Resin Patio Installations
When creating new patios, we start by installing a porous concrete foundation. This provides the stable base that resin surfacing needs while maintaining permeability throughout the entire structure.
The thickness depends on intended use. Patios typically require 100mm of porous concrete together with an appropriate sub-base, all built with correct gradients for drainage, even though the surface is permeable.
Resurfacing Existing Patio With Resin
Older concrete patios that remain structurally sound but look tired are ideal candidates for resin overlay treatments. We thoroughly prepare the existing surface—eliminating dirt, repairing cracks, and applying primer to ensure strong adhesion.
We not only deliver exceptional value for resin surfacing, but we also offer alternatives such as porcelain tiled patio installations, sandstone patios and more.
