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.
Any quote we prepare in Newquay says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. In and around Newquay, drives often run further from the road, so edging, falls and drainage are planned along the whole length.
Across Cornwall, the projects we price include widening a drive into the front garden for a second car, swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put and replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build. More about new resin driveways (full dig-out).

Planning in Newquay
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.
Permitted development rights apply to houses, not flats or maisonettes, and some conservation areas have Article 4 directions that remove them. Listed buildings can need consent if railings or historic walls are affected.
General information for England, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
The South West gets more rain than the east of England, especially on higher ground, so permeability and falls matter on every drive. Laying days in Newquay are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
