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 Enfield says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Plot sizes and existing surfaces vary a lot across Enfield, so the survey comes before any fixed figure.
Projects we quote in and around Enfield include building a fully permeable drive on a front garden, overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive and swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put. More about resin bonded driveways.

Planning in Enfield
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
London is one of the drier parts of the UK, but heavy summer downpours on small, mostly paved plots are exactly what front-garden drainage rules were written for. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Greater London, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
How it works
You start with a guide price, we visit to measure and check the site, you get a written quote, and we book the work for suitable weather.
