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 Billingham says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Many homes in Billingham have existing tarmac or block drives that can be assessed for an overlay or a rebuild.
Across County Durham, the projects we price include building a fully permeable drive on a front garden, overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive and adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage. More about resin bonded driveways.

Planning in Billingham
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 East has cool winters, so resin is laid in the warmer months or on dry, mild days when ground and air are above about 5°C. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Billingham jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
