What resin bonded driveways involve
A resin bonded driveway is a solid base coated with a layer of resin onto which loose aggregate is scattered. The stones stick to the resin, giving a textured, gravel-like finish that is grippy underfoot. Unlike resin bound, it is not permeable.
In Peterhead, 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. Around Peterhead, longer drives and rural access are common, so deliveries and mixing space are planned at survey.
Across Aberdeenshire, the projects we price include swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put, adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage and widening a drive into the front garden for a second car. More about resin bonded driveways.

Planning in Peterhead
Scotland's householder permitted development rules allow many hard surfaces at a house where the surface is porous or water drains to a permeable area within the property. Resin bonded is not permeable, so on a front garden it needs to drain to a permeable area within your property.
Flats, listed buildings and conservation areas are treated differently, so if any of those apply we suggest a quick check with your council's planning team before work starts.
General information for Scotland, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
North East Scotland is relatively dry for Scotland but cold, so the laying season is shorter and a free-draining base helps with frost. Laying days in Peterhead are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
