A well-laid resin path makes everyday access easier, whether it’s the route to the front door or a tidy run to the garden. We design and install resin paths Forest Hill area homeowners choose for a crisp finish and reliable grip. Around Forest Hill station and the Horniman Museum, we’re often asked to link gates, bins and patios with a single, seamless surface. The result is a neat, durable path that complements period brickwork and planting.
Forest Hill’s Victorian and Edwardian houses, plus period conversions, often have narrow side returns and stepped thresholds that need careful detailing. We regularly work across SE23 and nearby Sydenham, Honor Oak and Dulwich, shaping paths that sit flush to entrances and reduce trip points. Resin is ideal where you want a refined look without constant weeding between slabs. We also match edging and borders so the path suits traditional façades and front gardens.
We start with a site visit to check levels, drainage and the best route for footfall. Preparation is everything: we build a stable base, fit edging, then lay the resin system to a consistent finish. You’ll get clear guidance on curing times and aftercare, plus tidy workmanship throughout. Fine Landscaping backs installations with a 10-year warranty, which is why local homeowners recommend us for resin paths in London Borough of Lewisham.
Many Forest Hill plots have mixed ground and mature trees, so we assess stability and root-related movement before laying. Access can be tight on side paths, and parking can be limited near Forest Hill station, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also consider drainage so water doesn’t sit near thresholds or steps. Our detailing suits period front gardens common across SE23 and nearby Brockley.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
For most homes in SE23, resin paths typically fall between £60–£100 per square metre, depending on base condition, edging and finish choice. Small front or side access paths often land around £800–£2,500 overall. Costs rise if we need to excavate deeper, rebuild the sub-base, add decorative borders, or specify anti-slip aggregates. We’ll measure up and provide a detailed, itemised estimate.
Most resin path installations take 1–2 days on site, with the exact timescale depending on size, access and how much groundwork is required. If the existing surface is sound, preparation is quicker; if we need to dig out, install edging and rebuild the base, it can take longer. Weather and curing times also matter, especially in cooler or wetter periods. We’ll confirm timings before starting.
In many cases, a garden or front path is permitted development and won’t need planning permission. The key considerations are drainage and whether your property has restrictions, such as being in a conservation area or a listed building (more common with period homes). We’ll advise on permeable options and sensible falls to manage surface water. If permissions or approvals are needed, we’ll help you check requirements with Lewisham.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our resin path installations, covering workmanship and installation-related defects under normal residential use. This includes issues such as lifting or cracking caused by poor preparation or incorrect laying. The warranty doesn’t cover damage from ground movement beyond our control, heavy impacts, or misuse (for example, vehicle loading on a footpath). We’ll also explain aftercare to keep the finish looking its best.
You can choose from a range of aggregate colours to suit brickwork and planting, from warm golden tones to contemporary greys. We can add decorative borders, contrasting edging, and subtle curves for connecting paths between gates, patios and sheds. Anti-slip options are available for shaded routes and steps. We’ll bring samples, discuss how the path will be used, and recommend a finish that fits your home’s style and budget.
