Resin bonded driveways across Cheshire
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.
Resin bonded is the scatter-coat system. The resin is rolled onto a solid, sound base, the aggregate is broadcast over it until it is fully covered, and once the resin has cured the excess stone is brushed off and reused.
Typical projects we can quote for in Warrington include overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive, building a fully permeable drive on a front garden and replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build.

Resin bonded driveways: £35–£95 per m².
As a guide, a 31 m² drive in the CW area would be around £1,000–£1,600 laid over a sound existing base, rising to about £1,850–£2,900 with a dig-out and new base.
Planning in Cheshire
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. Resin bonded is not permeable, so on a front garden it needs to drain to a permeable area within your property.
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.
Weather and working days
The North West is one of the wetter parts of England, so laying days are picked carefully and drainage under the drive gets extra attention. Laying days in Warrington are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
