Resin Patio Surfacing in Wicklow
Resin bound surfacing produces smooth, permeable finishes that suit patios and pathways exceptionally well. The end result is durable, easy to maintain, and available in a wide choice of aggregate colours to complement almost any property.
Our resin specialists have installed hundreds of resin surfaced patios and can tailor any patio area in Wicklow to your exact requirements.
What Is Resin Surfacing?
We blend natural aggregates, typically stone between 2mm and 6mm, with clear polyurethane resin, then trowel the mixture onto a carefully prepared base. Once cured, the surface is solid, with each stone still visible yet firmly locked in place. The result is an attractive, textured finish that feels comfortable underfoot.
A resin bound system is permeable, so water drains straight through instead of lying on the surface. This is important for drainage regulations and for everyday practicality, as you will not be left with standing water after rain.
New Resin Patio Installations
For new patios, we begin by laying a porous concrete base. This gives resin the stable foundation it needs while keeping the whole construction permeable. The concrete must be allowed to cure fully before any resin is applied, because rushing this stage leads to failures.
Depth is determined by use. Patios typically require 100mm of porous concrete over a suitable sub-base, all laid with correct falls for drainage, even though the surface itself is permeable.
Resurfacing an Existing Patio With Resin
Older concrete patios that remain structurally sound but look tired are ideal 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.
Our resin surfacing offers outstanding value, and we also provide alternatives such as porcelain tiled patio installations, sandstone patios and more.
