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 Colne says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. In and around Colne, drives often run further from the road, so edging, falls and drainage are planned along the whole length.
In Colne we can price work such as swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put, widening a drive into the front garden for a second car and building a fully permeable drive on a front garden. More about resin bonded driveways.
Prices for resin bonded driveways in Colne
Labour and material costs in the North West run a little below the UK average, and the guide figures below reflect that. They include VAT and are confirmed after a survey.
As a guide, a 50 m² drive in the BB8 area would be around £1,650–£2,550 laid over a sound existing base, rising to about £3,000–£4,650 with a dig-out and new base.
| Service | Guide price inc VAT |
|---|---|
| Resin bonded driveways | £35–£95 per m² |
| New resin driveways (full dig-out) | £70–£110 per m² |
| Resin patios | £40–£110 per m² |

Planning in Colne
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 Colne jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
How it works
You start with a guide price, we visit to measure and check the site, you get a written quote, and we book the work for suitable weather.
