Resin bound driveways across Angus and Dundee
A resin bound driveway is a surface of natural stone aggregate mixed with clear polyurethane resin and trowelled by hand to a depth of around 18 mm on driveways. Every stone is fully coated, so the finish is smooth, has no loose gravel, and lets rainwater drain straight through it.
It is not a cure for a bad base. Resin bound copies whatever is underneath it, so cracks, soft spots and failed edges in the old surface come straight back through. Most of the survey is spent deciding whether the existing tarmac or concrete is good enough to overlay, or whether it needs digging out.
Typical projects we can quote for in Dundee include swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put, framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts and replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build.
Prices in Angus and Dundee
Labour and material costs in Tayside run below the UK average, and the guide figures below reflect that. They include VAT and are confirmed after a survey.
Resin bound driveways: £40–£105 per m².
As a guide, a 66 m² drive in the DD area would be around £2,650–£4,100 laid over a sound existing base, rising to about £4,400–£7,050 with a dig-out and new permeable base.
Planning in Angus and Dundee
Scotland's householder permitted development rules allow many hard surfaces at a house where the surface is porous or water drains to a permeable area within the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
Flats, listed buildings and conservation areas are treated differently, so if any of those apply we suggest a quick check with your council's planning team before work starts.
