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 Coleraine says which base route we recommend and why, with the depth, the resin and the aggregate written down. Homes in Coleraine range from period properties to modern estates, each with its own drainage and access questions.
Projects we quote in and around Coleraine include widening a drive into the front garden for a second car, overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive and swapping loose gravel for a resin surface that stays put. More about resin bound driveways.

Planning in Coleraine
Northern Ireland has its own permitted development order for houses, with conditions on hard surfaces and drainage: the simplest route is a surface that keeps rainwater within your boundary. 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 it is worth checking with your council's planning team before work starts.
General information for Northern Ireland, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
Northern Ireland has frequent rain spread through the year, so laying days are planned around dry spells and permeable builds make sense. Laying days in Coleraine are confirmed close to the date, because rain and cold stop resin curing properly.
