Resin Paving Case Studies

Matthew Savage, Head of Commercial at IDM Properties, was impressed by the Vintage Style Resin Cobblestones which were proposed when they requested options for a ‘decorative resin surface’.

This was part of a redesign and renovation of a 1960’s office block into residential units during the Channelsea House project in 2016.

“Gaysha are quite simply experts when it comes to the supply and works associated with resin surface finishes.”

The Right Choice And Perfect Timing To Ensure Completion

“They know precisely the best choices to make, which saves me time. And especially when they are usually involved at the stressful end of a project, when you need to complete to hit the various deadlines, they are certainly a safe bet.”

“Not only did they deploy rapidly, they use their initiative to overcome the usual problems of site clutter. So that saves me having to get involved to resolve issues between contractors.”

Ready To Go Within 30 Minutes

“I also love the products they work with. The contrasting colours and professional finish looks absolutely fantastic. And within 30 minutes, you can walk or even drive on the surface because it’s ready to go incredibly quickly.”

“We couldn’t have asked for more of a dream project with which to launch our resin cobblestones. The building façade, entrance and new signage all look fantastic – combined with the beautiful garden area this is going to be a really desirable development”

Nigel Farnan, Project Manager for Elite Landscapes, appreciates the simplicity of getting a superb surface finish for a set rate. Having worked with Gaysha for 12 years, he is very well placed to vouch for their quality and great value:

“I save a great deal of time working with Gaysha. Because we have a set-rate, it takes a matter of moments to figure out what the final bill will be.”

“And they work with particularly flexible resin-bound products. They look fantastic in some of the prestigious riverside block projects we do in London.”

“The product can be walked or driven upon pretty much straight away. It’s light which is ideal for roofing finishes where weight is a challenge. And it only needs a thin layer and is flexible enough to cover even concrete or tarmac.”

A Contractor I Can Rely On

“They get on with it without a fuss. Because we’ve worked with them for so many years, I know how flexible they are. They still completed on time recently for example when I had several trades on site at once for a project which needed completion within 10 days.”

“And when you consider that their role in a project is often the final part prior to completion, they simply got on with it, working around the congestion challenges with an extremely tight deadline.”

Would I Recommend Them? Absolutely

“They are a great team of people. Always well prepared. Flexible on-site. They work around problems that would stop others until an intervention.”

“I feel far more relaxed when their team is on the job as it allows me to focus on other issues without the worry. I strongly recommend them.”

Gaysha Director Andy Wilders on working with Nigel

“We go back a long way now, and Nigel and his team are a great bunch of people to work with. That relationship has developed so that we work extremely well together. They know the limitations we work within, but equally, we know precisely what they want and how they work so projects are completed to the satisfaction of all.”

Dieter Bierbaumer, the Contracts Manager at UKD Groundworks, has worked with Gaysha on every single project since the company sprung to life 12 years ago.

“Because they are deployed at the critical final handover phase of a project, I have come to rely upon Gaysha because they deliver a great product on time.

“For example, the recent residential, 7-tower block scheme in Silvertown. In fact, the resin-bound gravel on this scheme became a striking feature. It’s often better than paving because you can cover a large area, with an even surface, and chose a variety of attractive colours.”

Faster Lead Time, Even Surfaces, Choice Of Colours – Often Better Than Traditional Paving

“Importantly, an added benefit over traditional paving is the lead time. To the point where we replaced some of the planned paving on this project with resin bound gravel.

“The result on this project was fantastic. It became a feature on the pathways and the mutual skateboard and play area of the development.”

Over a 4 Year Project, They Could Be Relied Upon To Deliver

“Gaysha were deployed as each block within the development were completed over a 4 year period. Having worked with them for 12 years, I chose them for the lead time which can vary from responding next day to a fortnight for the larger projects.

“It’s this speed of response and just as importantly on the rare occasion there will be a delay, honest communication so you know where you stand that I have come to depend upon.”

On Time, On Budget Consistency

“They certainly help from a budgetary perspective. I can rely upon them to deliver ahead of or on time, which means we can hand things over as complete when promised.”

“They are always prepared, having pre-visited the site and meticulously co-ordinated material delivery before their people are due on site.”

“They were originally recommended to me, and in turn, I would recommend them without hesitation”

Gaysha Director Andy Wilders on working with Dieter

“Dieter is a pleasure to work with. We now know what he wants and how he works, and vice versa. This results in a great team effort in which he is a vital component. I have enjoyed working with him over the years, and look forward to many more.”
