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 Felling 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 Felling range from period properties to modern estates, each with its own drainage and access questions.
Typical projects we can quote for in Felling include replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build, 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 Felling
Labour and material costs in the North East 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 62 m² drive in the NE10 area would be around £1,950–£3,050 laid over a sound existing base, rising to about £3,600–£5,500 with a dig-out and new base.
| Service | Guide price inc VAT |
|---|---|
| Resin bonded driveways | £30–£90 per m² |
| Resin patios | £40–£105 per m² |
| Resin garden paths | £45–£125 per m² |

Planning in Felling
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. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Tyne and Wear, 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.
