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 Carmarthen we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Plots around Carmarthen are often generous, so turning areas and longer runs of edging are part of many quotes.
In Carmarthen we can price work such as swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put, framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts and building a fully permeable drive on a front garden. More about new resin driveways (full dig-out).

Planning in Carmarthen
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
West Wales has a mild but wet climate, which makes drainage the first question on any resin job. Laying days in Carmarthen are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
