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 Finchley we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Finchley mixes older streets with newer estates, and many homes have room for two or more cars.
Typical projects we can quote for in Finchley include swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put, replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build and overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive. More about new resin driveways (full dig-out).

Planning in Finchley
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.

Weather and working days
London is one of the drier parts of the UK, but heavy summer downpours on small, mostly paved plots are exactly what front-garden drainage rules were written for. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
