Those steep Crystal Palace gradients needn't mean puddles and cracked concrete forever. Modern resin technology creates surfaces that breathe, grip and genuinely last – whether you're tackling that awkward front garden in Anerley or sorting out years of patched tarmac.

Victorian properties throughout SE19 present unique challenges – narrow access, original brick boundaries, and driveways that have seen better days. Resin bound surfacing solves multiple problems at once. The permeable structure handles our notorious hill runoff brilliantly, while the seamless finish complements period architecture without looking out of place. Local planning officers appreciate the SUDs compliance too.
Installation begins with proper groundwork assessment – crucial given Crystal Palace's clay soil and gradients. The existing surface gets prepared, edging installed, then the resin-aggregate mix is trowelled to a smooth 18mm depth. UV-stable resins prevent colour fade, while the open matrix structure allows 850 litres of water per square metre to drain through naturally. No more ice patches outside those Penge semi-detacheds come winter.
Twenty years working SE20's quirky plots means understanding which aggregates suit shaded areas near Norwood's mature trees. Every installation carries full insurance, and the team knows exactly how to navigate those tight Victorian side returns without damaging original features.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Most terraced properties in SE19 run between £70-95 per square metre, depending on existing surface condition. A standard 40m² front garden transformation usually totals £3,200-4,000, including all preparation and edging work.
Absolutely – from Westow Hill's grand detacheds to the terraces off Anerley Road. Regular projects throughout SE19 and SE20, plus neighbouring areas like Gipsy Hill and South Norwood.
Weather permitting, most domestic installations complete within 2-3 days. Initial groundwork takes a day, resin application another, then 4-6 hours before you can walk on it.
Each installation includes a decade-long guarantee covering UV stability, aggregate adhesion and structural integrity. Should any manufacturing defects appear, repairs are completed at no charge – though properly installed surfaces rarely need attention.
The flexible resin matrix actually outperforms rigid surfaces in our climate. Unlike concrete or block paving, it accommodates ground movement without cracking, while the porous structure prevents standing water that becomes ice. Perfect for those north-facing Penge properties.
