New resin driveways (full dig-out) across County Londonderry
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.
Because the base is new, this is also the moment to fix levels, add edging, move the drive line, widen the entrance or add channel drains, so the quote is itemised to show what each part costs.
Typical projects we can quote for in Derry include building a fully permeable drive on a front garden, replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build and turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface.

New resin driveways (full dig-out): £65–£105 per m².

Planning in County Londonderry
Northern Ireland has its own permitted development order for houses, with conditions on hard surfaces and drainage: the simplest route is a surface that keeps rainwater within your boundary. 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 it is worth checking with your council's planning team before work starts.
Weather and working days
Northern Ireland has frequent rain spread through the year, so laying days are planned around dry spells and permeable builds make sense. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
