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 Blantyre says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. In and around Blantyre, drives often run further from the road, so edging, falls and drainage are planned along the whole length.
Projects we quote in and around Blantyre include adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage, framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts and widening a drive into the front garden for a second car. More about resin bonded driveways.

Planning in Blantyre
Scotland's householder permitted development rules allow many hard surfaces at a house where the surface is porous or water drains to a permeable area within the property. Resin bonded is not permeable, so on a front garden it needs to drain to a permeable area within your property.
Flats, listed buildings and conservation areas are treated differently, so if any of those apply we suggest a quick check with your council's planning team before work starts.
General information for Scotland, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
Central Scotland gets steady rainfall through the year, so a permeable build and well-planned falls keep drives free of standing water. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Blantyre jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
