Resin bound patios and paths in Leicester

A seamless, permeable surface for patios, garden paths, poolside areas and step-free access — laid in the same Vuba blends as our driveways.

The material

Why resin bound works so well in a garden

Resin bound is natural stone aggregate mixed with a clear, UV-stable polyurethane resin and trowelled onto a prepared base. For patios and paths we lay it at 15mm — the correct depth for pedestrian use — over a properly built, free-draining base.

Because every stone is fully encapsulated there are no loose chippings to track indoors, no joints for weeds to grow through, and no need for sand or pointing. Rainwater drains straight through the surface, so there are no puddles against the house and no run-off into borders.

The finish is smooth and continuous, which makes it genuinely easy to walk on — a real advantage for wheelchairs, pushchairs, walking frames and bare feet around a pool. It can be laid right up to patio doors, around trees, and into curves that block paving struggles with.

Why choose it

Made for outdoor living

01

Seamless and smooth

No joints, no trip edges, no rocking slabs. One continuous surface that flows around curves, steps and planting.

02

No weeds, no sand

Nothing to re-point or re-sand. An occasional sweep and a gentle wash keeps it looking new.

03

Drains straight through

Fully permeable, so rainwater soaks away rather than pooling by your doors or running into beds.

04

Comfortable underfoot

Textured but even — grippy in the wet, and kind on bare feet around pools and hot tubs.

05

Accessible by design

Ideal for step-free access: pushchairs, wheelchairs and walking frames all move easily across it.

06

Any blend you like

The full official Vuba range is available, so a patio can match an existing driveway or stand deliberately apart.

Where it works

Areas we surface

  1. 01

    Patios and seating areas

    Laid level with thresholds and finished against a brick, setts or steel edge. We can dress in existing walls, drainage channels and light fittings.

  2. 02

    Garden and side paths

    Narrow runs, curved routes and awkward shapes are straightforward with resin bound — there's no cutting or pattern to match.

  3. 03

    Poolside and hot tub surrounds

    Grippy when wet and quick to drain, with no loose stone to end up in the water.

  4. 04

    Step-free and accessible access

    Smooth, continuous ramps and approaches for wheelchair and pushchair use, laid to sensible falls.

  5. 05

    Steps, thresholds and detailing

    Treads, risers and small transition areas can all be finished in the same blend for a joined-up look.
