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 resin job in Coleraine 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 Coleraine range from period properties to modern estates, each with its own drainage and access questions.
Across County Londonderry, the projects we price include swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put, turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface and adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage. More about resin bonded driveways.
Prices for resin bonded driveways in Coleraine
Guide prices for Coleraine are based on Northern Ireland rates, which are below the UK average. The written quote after your survey is the figure that counts.
Worked example: a 67 m² drive in Coleraine laid as an overlay on sound tarmac or concrete would typically come to about £2,050–£3,250. The same area with a dig-out and new base would be nearer £3,850–£5,900.

Planning in Coleraine
Northern Ireland has its own permitted development order for houses, with conditions on hard surfaces and drainage: the simplest route is a surface that keeps rainwater within your boundary. 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 it is worth checking with your council's planning team before work starts.
General information for Northern Ireland, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
Northern Ireland has frequent rain spread through the year, so laying days are planned around dry spells and permeable builds make sense. Laying days in Coleraine are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
