Resin bonded driveways across Staffordshire
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 Stoke-on-Trent include building a fully permeable drive on a front garden, turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface and replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build.
Prices in Staffordshire
Labour and material costs in the West Midlands run close to the UK average, and the guide figures below reflect that. They include VAT and are confirmed after a survey.
Resin bonded driveways: £35–£100 per m².
For a 47 m² drive in Staffordshire: about £1,650–£2,600 as an overlay on a sound base, or roughly £3,050–£4,700 if the old surface has to come out for a dig-out and new base.
Planning in Staffordshire
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 West Midlands is close to the UK average for rainfall, and much of the region sits on clay that holds water after wet spells. Laying days in Stoke-on-Trent are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
