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 Keynsham we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. In and around Keynsham, drives often run further from the road, so edging, falls and drainage are planned along the whole length.
Projects we quote in and around Keynsham include overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive, swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put and framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts. More about resin bonded driveways.

Planning in Keynsham
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 South West gets more rain than the east of England, especially on higher ground, so permeability and falls matter on every drive. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Somerset, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
How it works
Guide price first, then a free visit, then a line-by-line quote. Nothing is booked until you have the specification in writing.
