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.
In Birmingham, as anywhere, the base is the part that decides how long a resin surface lasts. The survey settles whether we overlay, repair or rebuild it. Birmingham has everything from tight terraced frontages to large suburban drives, so no two quotes look the same.
Projects we quote in and around Birmingham include overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive, adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage and swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put. More about new resin driveways (full dig-out).

Planning in Birmingham
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.
General information for England, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
The West Midlands is close to the UK average for rainfall, and much of the region sits on clay that holds water after wet spells. Laying days in Birmingham are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
