Resin bonded driveways across Norfolk
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.
Because only one layer of stone is held, some stones will come loose over the first months and the surface is less forgiving of heavy turning. That is the trade-off for a lower price per square metre.
Projects we quote in and around Norwich include building a fully permeable drive on a front garden, widening a drive into the front garden for a second car and turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface.
Prices in Norfolk
For the East of England, where typical costs are above the UK average, these are the ranges we would expect before seeing your property.
Resin bonded driveways: £40–£110 per m².
Typical Norfolk figures for a 69 m² drive: £2,600–£4,100 over sound tarmac or concrete; £4,850–£7,450 with a dig-out and new base. Both include VAT.
Planning in Norfolk
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.
Weather and working days
The East of England is the driest part of the UK, which gives a long resin laying season, though heavy clays in places mean the sub-base needs designing for slow drainage. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Norfolk, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
