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.
In Prestwich, as anywhere, the base is the part that decides how long a resin surface lasts. The survey settles whether we overlay, repair or rebuild it. Prestwich mixes older streets with newer estates, and many homes have room for two or more cars.
Typical projects we can quote for in Prestwich include adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage, turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface and building a fully permeable drive on a front garden. More about resin bonded driveways.
Prices for resin bonded driveways in Prestwich
For the North West, where typical costs are a little below the UK average, these are the ranges we would expect before seeing your property.
As a guide, a 36 m² drive in the M25 area would be around £1,150–£1,850 laid over a sound existing base, rising to about £2,200–£3,350 with a dig-out and new base.

Planning in Prestwich
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. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Greater Manchester, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
