What new resin driveways (full dig-out) involves
A new resin driveway starts from the ground up: the old surface and soft ground are dug out and taken away, a compacted stone sub-base and a binder course (usually porous asphalt or concrete) are laid, and the resin bound surface goes on top.
In Peterhead, as anywhere, the base is the part that decides how long a resin surface lasts. The survey settles whether we overlay, repair or rebuild it. Plots around Peterhead are often generous, so turning areas and longer runs of edging are part of many quotes.
Across Aberdeenshire, the projects we price include overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive, framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts and swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put. More about new resin driveways (full dig-out).

Planning in Peterhead
Scotland's householder permitted development rules allow many hard surfaces at a house where the surface is porous or water drains to a permeable area within the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
Flats, listed buildings and conservation areas are treated differently, so if any of those apply we suggest a quick check with your council's planning team before work starts.
General information for Scotland, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
North East Scotland is relatively dry for Scotland but cold, so the laying season is shorter and a free-draining base helps with frost. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Aberdeenshire, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
