New resin driveways (full dig-out) across Lanarkshire
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.
For a permeable drive the base is built to let water through: a clean, open-graded stone sub-base under a porous asphalt binder, with the resin on top. Where the ground does not drain, the base can be built with drainage to a soakaway instead.
Across Lanarkshire, the projects we price include widening a drive into the front garden for a second car, framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts and turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface.
Prices in Lanarkshire
Labour and material costs in Central Scotland run below the UK average, and the guide figures below reflect that. They include VAT and are confirmed after a survey.

Planning in Lanarkshire
Scotland's householder permitted development rules allow many hard surfaces at a house where the surface is porous or water drains to a permeable area within the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
Flats, listed buildings and conservation areas are treated differently, so if any of those apply we suggest a quick check with your council's planning team before work starts.
Weather and working days
Central Scotland gets steady rainfall through the year, so a permeable build and well-planned falls keep drives free of standing water. Surveys run all year; resin work itself waits for a dry day above about 5°C.
