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 Hawick, 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. In and around Hawick, drives often run further from the road, so edging, falls and drainage are planned along the whole length.
Typical projects we can quote for in Hawick include turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface, overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive and swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put. More about resin bonded driveways.
Prices for resin bonded driveways in Hawick
Labour and material costs in the South of Scotland run below the UK average, and the guide figures below reflect that. They include VAT and are confirmed after a survey.
As a guide, a 72 m² drive in the TD9 area would be around £2,250–£3,500 laid over a sound existing base, rising to about £4,150–£6,400 with a dig-out and new base.

Planning in Hawick
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.

Weather and working days
The South of Scotland mixes wet western hills with drier eastern lowlands, and frost is common in winter. Laying days in Hawick are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
