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 resin job in Great Malvern starts the same way: we check whether your existing surface is sound enough to overlay or needs digging out, because that decides both the price and how long the surface lasts. Homes in Great Malvern range from period properties to modern estates, each with its own drainage and access questions.
Typical projects we can quote for in Great Malvern include overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive, swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put and turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface. More about new resin driveways (full dig-out).

Planning in Great Malvern
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 Great Malvern are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
