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 East Molesey says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. In and around East Molesey, drives often run further from the road, so edging, falls and drainage are planned along the whole length.
In East Molesey we can price work such as overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive, 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 East Molesey
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
