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 Welshpool says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Plots around Welshpool are often generous, so turning areas and longer runs of edging are part of many quotes.
In Welshpool we can price work such as adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage, replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build and building a fully permeable drive on a front garden. More about new resin driveways (full dig-out).

Planning in Welshpool
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. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Powys, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
