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.
Any quote we prepare in Wilmslow says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Wilmslow mixes older streets with newer estates, and many homes have room for two or more cars.
Projects we quote in and around Wilmslow include swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put, building a fully permeable drive on a front garden and widening a drive into the front garden for a second car. More about resin bonded driveways.
Prices for resin bonded driveways in Wilmslow
For the North West, where typical costs are a little below the UK average, these are the ranges we would expect before seeing your property.
Worked example: a 66 m² drive in Wilmslow laid as an overlay on sound tarmac or concrete would typically come to about £2,150–£3,400. The same area with a dig-out and new base would be nearer £4,000–£6,150.

Planning in Wilmslow
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.
General information for England, not legal advice.
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. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Wilmslow jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
How it works
The steps are simple: guide price, free survey, written quote with a fixed price once the specification is agreed, then a date that suits you and the weather.
