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 Crawley we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Plot sizes and existing surfaces vary a lot across Crawley, so the survey comes before any fixed figure.
In Crawley we can price work such as adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage, turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface and building a fully permeable drive on a front garden. More about resin bonded driveways.

Planning in Crawley
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 South East is relatively dry, with long laying seasons, but clay soils are common across much of the region and can drain slowly. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Crawley jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
