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.
Before quoting in Exmouth we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Homes in Exmouth range from period properties to modern estates, each with its own drainage and access questions.
Projects we quote in and around Exmouth include building a fully permeable drive on a front garden, overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive and turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface. More about new resin driveways (full dig-out).

Planning in Exmouth
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. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Devon, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
How it works
You start with a guide price, we visit to measure and check the site, you get a written quote, and we book the work for suitable weather.
