Resin-bound Surfacing in Tilbury
Tilbury is a working river town beside the Port of Tilbury, with dense terraces near the docks, known locally for Tilbury Fort and the cruise terminal. For resin-bound surfacing here, that specific setting — not the wider Grays average — is what we design around.
Part of Grays yet distinct in feel, Tilbury sits in RM18. We bring UV-stable resin-bound aggregate and a permeable base trowelled with hand-mixed resin and stone to its dockworker terraces, 20 miles from our Southend yard via the A1089.

What local projects involve
Working with dockworker terraces
Dockworker terraces are common across Tilbury. We match materials and proportions so new work sits naturally against the existing property.
Drainage on urban plots
Local plots around Tilbury can hold water. We build in falls and permeable detailing so surfaces drain properly through RM18's wetter months.
Sloping and split-level gardens
Where Tilbury plots slope, retaining and levelling come first. We get the structure right before any surface goes down.
