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 Cheshunt 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 Cheshunt range from period properties to modern estates, each with its own drainage and access questions.
Across Hertfordshire, the projects we price include turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface, replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build and swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put. More about new resin driveways (full dig-out).

Planning in Cheshunt
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 East of England is the driest part of the UK, which gives a long resin laying season, though heavy clays in places mean the sub-base needs designing for slow drainage. If the weather turns on the day, we move the pour rather than risk a surface that will not cure.
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.
