Resin Patio Surfacing in Ratoath
Resin bound surfacing produces smooth, permeable finishes that suit patios and pathways particularly well. The end result is hard wearing and low maintenance, and it comes in a wide choice of aggregate colours to complement different properties.
Our resin specialists have completed hundreds of resin surfaced patios, and we can tailor any patio area in Ratoath to suit your requirements.
What Is Resin Surfacing?
We blend natural aggregates, usually stone in the 2 to 6mm range, with clear polyurethane resin, then trowel the mixture onto a prepared base. Once it has cured, you have a solid surface where each stone remains visible yet is firmly locked in place. This gives an attractive, textured finish that feels comfortable underfoot.
A resin bound system is permeable, so water drains straight through rather than lying on the surface. This is important for meeting drainage regulations and for everyday practicality, because you will not be left with standing water after rain.
New Resin Patio Installations
For a new patio, we begin by laying a porous concrete base. This gives the resin the stable foundation it needs while keeping the whole construction permeable. The concrete must be allowed to cure fully before the resin goes on, as rushing this stage leads to failures.
The depth depends on how the area will be used. Patios typically need 100mm of porous concrete with a suitable sub-base beneath it, all laid with the correct falls for drainage, even though the surface itself is permeable.
Resurfacing an Existing Patio With Resin
Older concrete patios that are structurally sound but looking tired are often good candidates for a resin overlay. We prepare the existing surface thoroughly by cleaning it, repairing any cracks and applying a primer to ensure proper adhesion.
As well as offering excellent value for resin surfacing, we provide other options such as porcelain tiled patio installations, sandstone patios and more.
