New resin driveways (full dig-out) across Merseyside
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 Merseyside, the projects we price include adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage, replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build and swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put.
Prices in Merseyside
Prices in the North West are a little below the UK average. These are guide ranges including VAT; your quote follows a free survey.
New resin driveways (full dig-out): £70–£110 per m².
For a 41 m² drive in Merseyside, built with a dig-out and new permeable base, expect roughly £2,850–£4,600 including VAT before any drainage or kerb work.
Planning in Merseyside
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. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Merseyside, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
