New resin driveways (full dig-out) across Lancashire
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.
Most resin driveway failures come from what is underneath, so a full dig-out is the safest route when the existing drive is block paving, gravel, broken tarmac, cracked concrete or lawn.
Across Lancashire, the projects we price include replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build, adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage and framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts.
Prices in Lancashire
Guide prices for Lancashire are based on North West rates, which are a little below the UK average. The written quote after your survey is the figure that counts.
New resin driveways (full dig-out): £70–£110 per m².
As a guide, a 28 m² drive in the BB area with a dig-out and new permeable base would be around £1,950–£3,100, including VAT.
Planning in Lancashire
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
The North West is one of the wetter parts of England, so laying days are picked carefully and drainage under the drive gets extra attention. Laying days in Preston are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
