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.
Before quoting in Macclesfield we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Macclesfield mixes older streets with newer estates, and many homes have room for two or more cars.
In Macclesfield we can price work such as widening a drive into the front garden for a second car, adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage and turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface. More about resin bound driveways.

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