New resin driveways (full dig-out) across Clwyd
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.
For a permeable drive the base is built to let water through: a clean, open-graded stone sub-base under a porous asphalt binder, with the resin on top. Where the ground does not drain, the base can be built with drainage to a soakaway instead.
Projects we quote in and around Wrexham include building a fully permeable drive on a front garden, replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build and overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive.
Prices in Clwyd
Guide prices for Clwyd are based on North Wales rates, which are below the UK average. The written quote after your survey is the figure that counts.
New resin driveways (full dig-out): £70–£110 per m².
As a guide, a 54 m² drive in the LL area with a dig-out and new permeable base would be around £3,700–£5,900, including VAT.
Planning in Clwyd
Wales has its own permitted development rules on the same principle: a front-garden hard surface should be porous or drain to a permeable area on the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
In Wales, new construction with drainage implications covering 100 m² or more can also need approval from the council's SuDS Approving Body (SAB). Most domestic drives are smaller than that, but larger drives and extensions are checked at survey.
Weather and working days
North Wales ranges from mild coastal towns to wetter upland areas, so drainage and laying days are planned with the weather in mind. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Clwyd, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
