Resin bonded driveways across Warwickshire
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.
The finish looks like a gravel drive but behaves more like a sealed surface. It has excellent grip, which is why it is used on ramps, steep drives and the approaches to junctions, but it is impermeable, so water has to be managed with falls and drainage.
Typical projects we can quote for in Nuneaton include overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive, framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts and swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put.
Prices in Warwickshire
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.
As a guide, a 48 m² drive in the CV area would be around £1,700–£2,650 laid over a sound existing base, rising to about £3,100–£4,800 with a dig-out and new base.
Planning in Warwickshire
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. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Nuneaton jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
