Descriptiontext

Limegate Group (legally Limegate Limited, founded 2013, headquartered in Kemsing, Kent) is a UK specialist surfacing contractor offering resin-bound, resin-bonded, wet pour rubber, asphalt, and artificial grass installation alongside groundworks. The company's flagship product, the LimeBound UV Stable Resin Bound System, uses a UV-stable aliphatic HDI resin binder mixed with kiln-dried aggregates, certified to BS EN ISO 16474-3 Method A weathering, BS EN 13892-2 strength, and BS 8204-6 slip resistance, and approved by the British Board of Agrément. The wider portfolio extends to LimeBonded high-friction surfacing, the LimePath family (EasiWalk, EcoWalk, GeoSuDS), LimeRubber Safeplay wet pour rubber for playgrounds (EN 1176/EN 1177 compliant with HIC below 1,000), LimeTreePit tree pit solutions, and LimeGrass artificial grass, all marketed as SuDS-compliant permeable systems where applicable. The group operates a wholly-owned subsidiary, Limegate Solutions Ltd, which supplies proprietary materials to third-party specialist applicator contractors.

The business runs a sales-led go-to-market targeting three primary verticals: commercial properties (retail parks, office complexes, automotive dealerships, hospitality), public sector and institutional clients (schools, local authorities, National Trust sites, hospitals), and residential homeowners served via regional SEO landing pages across London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex, and Essex. Distribution is entirely direct, with no resellers or franchise model. Revenue is generated through one-time project contracts priced per square metre (£40-£100/m² range for resin systems), supplemented by B2B material supply. The customer portfolio includes high-visibility sites such as Lord's Cricket Ground, Kew Gardens, Legoland Windsor, London Zoo, Olympic Park Stadium, Canada Square (Canary Wharf), Eton College, The Queen's Club, and Bournemouth Beachfront, providing strong reputational collateral for further tenders. Accumulated accreditations (FeRFA, HAPAS, CHAS Purple, SSIP, Construction Line, BALI, Acclaim, ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015) qualify the firm for higher-value public and commercial framework work. The company remains privately held with no disclosed funding rounds, acquisitions, or revenue figures.

Pricing details2 tiers
1Resin-bound surfacing: £40–£100 per square metre (higher quality materials, complex installation)
ModelUnit PricingBilling cadencePay-as-you-go
Notes

Average cost range across the UK market. Resin-bound is typically more expensive than resin-bonded. Price increases with premium aggregates, custom colours, decorative borders, complex patterns, and additional groundwork requirements. Companies offering very low prices may compromise on material or installation quality.

limegate.co.uk
2Resin-bonded surfacing: lower end of £40–£100/m² range (simpler installation process)
ModelUnit PricingBilling cadencePay-as-you-go
Notes

Resin-bonded tends to be more budget-friendly than resin-bound. Involves scattering aggregates onto a resin layer rather than pre-mixing, resulting in a quicker and less complex installation.
