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 Colwyn Bay, 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. Homes in Colwyn Bay range from period properties to modern estates, each with its own drainage and access questions.
Typical projects we can quote for in Colwyn Bay include widening a drive into the front garden for a second car, building a fully permeable drive on a front garden and overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive. More about new resin driveways (full dig-out).

Planning in Colwyn Bay
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.
General information for Wales, not legal advice.
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. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
