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.
Any quote we prepare in Brecon says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. In and around Brecon, drives often run further from the road, so edging, falls and drainage are planned along the whole length.
Across Powys, the projects we price include swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put, framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts and adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage. More about new resin driveways (full dig-out).

Planning in Brecon
Wales has its own permitted development rules on the same principle: a front-garden hard surface should be porous or drain to a permeable area on the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
In Wales, new construction with drainage implications covering 100 m² or more can also need approval from the council's SuDS Approving Body (SAB). Most domestic drives are smaller than that, but larger drives and extensions are checked at survey.
General information for Wales, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
Mid Wales is wet and hilly, so falls, drainage and access for materials are planned at survey. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Brecon jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
How it works
The steps are simple: guide price, free survey, written quote with a fixed price once the specification is agreed, then a date that suits you and the weather.
