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 Rawtenstall says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Plots around Rawtenstall are often generous, so turning areas and longer runs of edging are part of many quotes.
In Rawtenstall we can price work such as building a fully permeable drive on a front garden, widening a drive into the front garden for a second car and framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts. More about resin bonded driveways.
Prices for resin bonded driveways in Rawtenstall

Planning in Rawtenstall
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. If the weather turns on the day, we move the pour rather than risk a surface that will not cure.
How it works
The steps are simple: guide price, free survey, written quote with a fixed price once the specification is agreed, then a date that suits you and the weather.
