🏗️ Another quality public realm project completed!

This week, the team visited a Lagan Homes development in Coventry, installing a resin bonded footpath linking the public open spaces throughout the development.

Designed to complement the surrounding landscape while providing a durable, low-maintenance surface, resin bonded paving helps create attractive pedestrian routes that residents can enjoy for years to come.

Our team made excellent progress on site and we're pleased to be supporting the delivery of high-quality outdoor spaces that enhance the overall development.

❌ Myth: Resin bound paving is slippery when wet!

✅ Fact: Resin bound paving is designed to provide excellent grip and drainage, making it a popular choice for driveways, footpaths, parks and public spaces.

Because water drains through the surface rather than sitting on top, resin bound paving can often offer better wet-weather performance than traditional surfacing materials.

In our latest myth-busting article, we separate fact from fiction and explain why resin bound paving remains one of the safest and most practical surfacing solutions available.

🚧 Fourth and Final Visit to Roseland Park Crematorium 🚧

Last week, our team completed the final phase of works at Roseland Park Crematorium, laying resin bonded paving on the footpaths surrounding the main building and leading to the flower court.

Over four visits, we've delivered more than 2,500m² of high-quality resin bound and bonded surfacing across the site, helping to create safe, accessible and attractive pathways for visitors.

It has been a pleasure working alongside Dragonfly Management (Bolsover District Council's development company) and DJ Newberry on this important project, and we're proud to have played our part in enhancing this beautiful and tranquil setting. 👏

Thinking about renovating your outdoor space, business entrance or footpaths?

While block paving has long been a popular choice, resin bound paving is becoming the preferred option for homeowners, developers and commercial projects alike.

Why are they choosing resin bound?
✅ No weeds growing through joints
✅ SuDS-compliant permeability for improved drainage
✅ Lower maintenance requirements
✅ Smooth, attractive finish with a wide range of colours
✅ Durable surface with reduced risk of movement and sinking

Whether you're upgrading a residential driveway, public realm space or commercial development, resin bound paving offers a practical, long-lasting and visually appealing solution.

Last week, we started Visit Two at Canterbury Story Gardens in the historic Dane John Gardens, where we installed resin bonded paving for the park's footpaths.

Working on behalf of Blakedown Landscapes for Canterbury City Council as part of the wider regeneration project, our team has been carefully applying decorative surfacing around this much-loved public space, creating attractive, durable pathways that complement the character of the gardens. ✨

We're pleased to report that Grayfriars and Solly's Orchard are now complete, with Dane John Gardens on track to be finished by the end of this week and the City Wall completed by the end of Visit Two. Despite the scale and complexity of this project, all works remain on budget and within project timescales. 👌

The combination of Scandinavian White and Brittany Bronze resin bound paving creates a striking impression when you arrive.

Flash back to an amazing project we completed for Nottingham Hospitals Charity. 😀

We transformed the garden at Hayward House, a palliative care unit at Nottingham City Hospital, to make it more accessible to patients and visitors, allowing them to enjoy this beautiful, tranquil space.

The pathways were widened, and resin bound paving was installed to provide a smooth, accessible route into the garden, allowing bed-bound and wheelchair users to enjoy the outdoors.

This type of paving not only boosts accessibility but it also looks great, enhancing the beauty of this landscaped space!
