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 Larkhall, 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. Plots around Larkhall are often generous, so turning areas and longer runs of edging are part of many quotes.
In Larkhall we can price work such as widening a drive into the front garden for a second car, replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build and building a fully permeable drive on a front garden. More about resin bonded driveways.

Planning in Larkhall
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. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Lanarkshire, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
