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 quote we prepare in Leeds says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Housing in Leeds ranges from Victorian terraces to post-war semis and newer estates, and drive sizes vary just as much.
Typical projects we can quote for in Leeds include overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive, replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build and adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage. More about resin bonded driveways.
Prices for resin bonded driveways in Leeds
Prices in Yorkshire and the Humber are a little below the UK average. These are guide ranges including VAT; your quote follows a free survey.
As a guide, a 49 m² drive in the LS1 area would be around £1,600–£2,500 laid over a sound existing base, rising to about £2,950–£4,550 with a dig-out and new base.

Planning in Leeds
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
Rainfall varies widely across Yorkshire, from the drier Vale of York to wetter Pennine towns, and cold snaps shorten the laying season at either end. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in West Yorkshire, 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.
Resin bonded driveways in Leeds: questions
Is the price fixed for Leeds jobs?
Yes, once the scope and specification are agreed in writing. If hidden ground conditions turn up, we explain and agree any change with you before doing extra work.

Dropped kerb consent comes from your council as local highway authority. We help with the application and get your drive ready to meet the new crossing.

Often, yes. Tell us where you saw it or show us a photo, and we will bring the closest blends to the survey to compare in daylight.
