What commercial resin surfacing involves
Commercial resin surfacing uses resin bound and resin bonded systems on business premises: office forecourts, retail entrances, hotel and pub car parks, care homes and new housing developments. Systems are specified for the traffic expected, from pedestrians to delivery vehicles.
For Colchester businesses and developers, the specification follows the traffic expected, from pedestrians to light commercial vehicles. Colchester has a broad mix of housing, from terraces near the centre to detached homes on the edges.
Projects we quote in and around Colchester include laying permeable paths on a new housing scheme, laying a shared path through a school or park and surfacing a car park with marked bays. More about commercial resin surfacing.

Planning in Colchester
Commercial and development sites often have planning conditions on surfacing and drainage, including sustainable drainage. We work to the approved drawings and conditions and can supply product details for discharge of conditions.
General information for England, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
The East of England is the driest part of the UK, which gives a long resin laying season, though heavy clays in places mean the sub-base needs designing for slow drainage. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Colchester jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
How it works
Guide price first, then a free visit, then a line-by-line quote. Nothing is booked until you have the specification in writing.
Commercial resin surfacing in Colchester: questions
Is the price fixed for Colchester jobs?
Yes, once the scope and specification are agreed in writing. If hidden ground conditions turn up, we explain and agree any change with you before doing extra work.
Who approves dropped kerbs in Colchester?
Dropped kerb consent comes from your council as local highway authority. We help with the application and get your drive ready to meet the new crossing.
Do I need planning permission in Colchester?
In England, a new or replaced hard surface of more than 5 m² in a front garden is permitted development only if it is porous, or if rainwater drains to a lawn, border or soakaway within the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
