New resin driveways (full dig-out) across North Yorkshire
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 North Yorkshire, the projects we price include building a fully permeable drive on a front garden, widening a drive into the front garden for a second car and adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage.
Prices in North Yorkshire

New resin driveways (full dig-out): £70–£110 per m².
For a 38 m² drive in North Yorkshire, built with a dig-out and new permeable base, expect roughly £2,650–£4,250 including VAT before any drainage or kerb work.
Planning in North Yorkshire
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
Rainfall varies widely across Yorkshire, from the drier Vale of York to wetter Pennine towns, and cold snaps shorten the laying season at either end. If the weather turns on the day, we move the pour rather than risk a surface that will not cure.
