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 Magherafelt says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Plots around Magherafelt are often generous, so turning areas and longer runs of edging are part of many quotes.
Across County Londonderry, the projects we price include widening a drive into the front garden for a second car, framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts and turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface. More about resin bonded driveways.

Planning in Magherafelt
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.

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 Magherafelt are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
