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 Redruth 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 Redruth have existing tarmac or block drives that can be assessed for an overlay or a rebuild.
Projects we quote in and around Redruth include overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive, adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage and widening a drive into the front garden for a second car. More about resin bound driveways.
Prices for resin bound driveways in Redruth
Labour and material costs in the South West run above the UK average, and the guide figures below reflect that. They include VAT and are confirmed after a survey.
Worked example: a 34 m² drive in Redruth laid as an overlay on sound tarmac or concrete would typically come to about £1,650–£2,550. The same area with a dig-out and new permeable base would be nearer £2,750–£4,350.

Planning in Redruth
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 South West gets more rain than the east of England, especially on higher ground, so permeability and falls matter on every drive. We only lay resin on dry days with ground and air above about 5°C, so Redruth jobs are booked with the forecast in mind.
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.
