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 Solihull we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Solihull has a broad mix of housing, from terraces near the centre to detached homes on the edges.
In Solihull we can price work such as building a fully permeable drive on a front garden, turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface and framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts. More about new resin driveways (full dig-out).

Planning in Solihull
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. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Solihull jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
How it works
