Resin installer requests from Dover & Deal
Dover, Deal, Walmer and Sandwich have Georgian and Victorian townhouses, while Aylesham, Whitfield and River have newer estates and St Margaret's at Cliffe has exposed clifftop homes. Tell us about your drive, path or patio and we'll pass it to resin installers covering CT13 to CT17.
- Many townhouses in Deal and Sandwich open straight onto the pavement, so resin work is often a rear yard or patio.
- Newer homes in Aylesham and Whitfield may have estate rules about changing the frontage.
- Clifftop and coastal homes face strong winds, which can affect laying days.
Rear yards and courtyards in Deal and Sandwich old towns
In Deal's old town and in Sandwich, many houses sit right on the pavement with small yards or courtyard gardens behind. Resin-bound is a popular way to replace cracked concrete or uneven slabs in these spaces, but everything usually has to come through the house or a narrow side passage. Tell installers about access, steps and where a mixer can be set up, as resin must be laid soon after mixing. Both towns have large conservation areas and many listed buildings, so check with Dover District Council if your home is listed or the yard is visible from the street. Keep the new surface below any damp-proof course and clear of air bricks.
New estates and exposed plots from Whitfield to St Margaret's
Aylesham and Whitfield have seen a lot of new housing, and owners often want to replace tarmac or block paving or widen their parking. Check your deeds and any estate management rules first, and talk to Kent County Council if you need a new or wider dropped kerb. Out towards St Margaret's at Cliffe, River and the clifftop villages, homes on chalk often drain well but face strong winds off the Channel. Installers avoid laying resin in rain, cold or high winds, so expect the date to depend on the forecast. On exposed sites, UV-stable resin and a mid-tone stone that hides dust can keep the surface looking better for longer.
