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.
Before quoting in Altrincham we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Homes in Altrincham range from period properties to modern estates, each with its own drainage and access questions.
Across Greater Manchester, the projects we price include adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage, building a fully permeable drive on a front garden and framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts. More about resin bonded driveways.
Prices for resin bonded driveways in Altrincham

As a guide, a 35 m² drive in the WA14 area would be around £1,150–£1,800 laid over a sound existing base, rising to about £2,100–£3,250 with a dig-out and new base.

Planning in Altrincham
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 West is one of the wetter parts of England, so laying days are picked carefully and drainage under the drive gets extra attention. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Altrincham jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
