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.
In Wimbledon, as anywhere, the base is the part that decides how long a resin surface lasts. The survey settles whether we overlay, repair or rebuild it. Wimbledon mixes older streets with newer estates, and many homes have room for two or more cars.
Across Greater London, the projects we price include turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface, adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage and overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive. More about new resin driveways (full dig-out).

Planning in Wimbledon
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
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. Laying days in Wimbledon are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
