Resin bonded driveways across Dyfed
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.
The finish looks like a gravel drive but behaves more like a sealed surface. It has excellent grip, which is why it is used on ramps, steep drives and the approaches to junctions, but it is impermeable, so water has to be managed with falls and drainage.
Projects we quote in and around Llanelli include overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive, adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage and widening a drive into the front garden for a second car.
Prices in Dyfed
Guide prices for Dyfed are based on West Wales rates, which are below the UK average. The written quote after your survey is the figure that counts.
Resin bonded driveways: £30–£90 per m².
Typical Dyfed figures for a 36 m² drive: £1,150–£1,800 over sound tarmac or concrete; £2,100–£3,250 with a dig-out and new base. Both include VAT.
Planning in Dyfed
Wales has its own permitted development rules on the same principle: a front-garden hard surface should be porous or drain to a permeable area on the property. Resin bonded is not permeable, so on a front garden it needs to drain to a permeable area within your property.
In Wales, new construction with drainage implications covering 100 m² or more can also need approval from the council's SuDS Approving Body (SAB). Most domestic drives are smaller than that, but larger drives and extensions are checked at survey.
Weather and working days
West Wales has a mild but wet climate, which makes drainage the first question on any resin job. Laying days in Llanelli are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
