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 Peterlee says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Around Peterlee, longer drives and rural access are common, so deliveries and mixing space are planned at survey.
Across County Durham, the projects we price include replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build, building a fully permeable drive on a front garden and widening a drive into the front garden for a second car. More about new resin driveways (full dig-out).

Planning in Peterlee
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 North East has cool winters, so resin is laid in the warmer months or on dry, mild days when ground and air are above about 5°C. Laying days in Peterlee are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
