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 Great Malvern we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Many homes in Great Malvern have existing tarmac or block drives that can be assessed for an overlay or a rebuild.
Across Worcestershire, the projects we price include overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive, replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build and building a fully permeable drive on a front garden. More about resin bonded driveways.

Planning in Great Malvern
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. Laying days in Great Malvern are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
