What resin bound driveways involve
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.
Any quote we prepare in Great Sankey says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Many homes in Great Sankey have existing tarmac or block drives that can be assessed for an overlay or a rebuild.
In Great Sankey we can price work such as replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build, framing a golden blend with charcoal granite setts and swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put. More about resin bound driveways.

Planning in Great Sankey
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. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
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
The North West is one of the wetter parts of England, so laying days are picked carefully and drainage under the drive gets extra attention. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Cheshire, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
