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.
Before quoting in Blyth we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Homes in Blyth range from period properties to modern estates, each with its own drainage and access questions.
Typical projects we can quote for in Blyth include overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive, swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put and widening a drive into the front garden for a second car. More about resin bonded driveways.
Prices for resin bonded driveways in Blyth
Guide prices for Blyth are based on North East rates, which are below the UK average. The written quote after your survey is the figure that counts.
Worked example: a 35 m² drive in Blyth laid as an overlay on sound tarmac or concrete would typically come to about £1,100–£1,700. The same area with a dig-out and new base would be nearer £2,000–£3,100.

Planning in Blyth
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 East has cool winters, so resin is laid in the warmer months or on dry, mild days when ground and air are above about 5°C. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Blyth 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.
