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.
Before quoting in Clydach we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. In and around Clydach, drives often run further from the road, so edging, falls and drainage are planned along the whole length.
Typical projects we can quote for in Clydach include swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put, overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive and turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface. More about new resin driveways (full dig-out).

Planning in Clydach
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
South Wales is wetter than most of England, so a permeable build or a planned route for water is essential on every drive. Laying days in Clydach are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
