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 Ryde we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Around Ryde, longer drives and rural access are common, so deliveries and mixing space are planned at survey.
Across the Isle of Wight, the projects we price include swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put, adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage and building a fully permeable drive on a front garden. More about resin bonded driveways.
Prices for resin bonded driveways in Ryde
Labour and material costs in the South East run above the UK average, and the guide figures below reflect that. They include VAT and are confirmed after a survey.
As a guide, a 38 m² drive in the PO33 area would be around £1,500–£2,350 laid over a sound existing base, rising to about £2,750–£4,250 with a dig-out and new base.

|---|---|
| Resin bonded driveways | £40–£110 per m² |
| Resin over tarmac and concrete | £50–£80 per m² |
| Resin garden paths | £55–£155 per m² |

Planning in Ryde
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 South East is relatively dry, with long laying seasons, but clay soils are common across much of the region and can drain slowly. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Ryde jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
