I really dislike the look of paving slabs. Has anyone tried using resin bound gravel for a patio? I'm trying to decide on a new surface for our backyard patio. We have a decent-sized area that's currently just plain concrete, and it's really uninviting. I want something that looks more natural and is comfortable to walk on barefoot. I've seen a few resin bound gravel patios online, and they look quite attractive. But I'm wondering how practical they are in terms of cleaning and durability. Also, is it a comfortable surface for outdoor dining?

I think it’s an excellent idea! Several people on my street have had resin bound gravel installed for their patios and driveways, and they all seem very pleased with the result, and it certainly looks the part. For one thing, it looks way more modern than paving slabs. I know some got one of those Diy Kits to do it themselves. One friend said that it’s surprisingly comfortable underfoot because the stones are bound together smoothly. As for cleaning, a quick brush or hose down seems to be enough for most spills. Obviously, be careful spilling oil on it or anything like that, as it can stain.
