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.
Any resin job in Esher starts the same way: we check whether your existing surface is sound enough to overlay or needs digging out, because that decides both the price and how long the surface lasts. Esher mixes older streets with newer estates, and many homes have room for two or more cars.
Projects we quote in and around Esher include building a fully permeable drive on a front garden, overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive and widening a drive into the front garden for a second car. More about resin bonded driveways.
Prices for resin bonded driveways in Esher
Guide prices for Esher are based on South East rates, which are above the UK average. The written quote after your survey is the figure that counts.

Planning in Esher
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 East is relatively dry, with long laying seasons, but clay soils are common across much of the region and can drain slowly. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Surrey, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
