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.
In Cirencester, as anywhere, the base is the part that decides how long a resin surface lasts. The survey settles whether we overlay, repair or rebuild it. In and around Cirencester, drives often run further from the road, so edging, falls and drainage are planned along the whole length.
Typical projects we can quote for in Cirencester include adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage, turning a cracked concrete drive into a seamless resin bound surface and replacing tired block paving with a permeable resin build. More about resin bound driveways.
Prices for resin bound driveways in Cirencester
Guide prices for Cirencester are based on South West rates, which are above the UK average. The written quote after your survey is the figure that counts.
Worked example: a 69 m² drive in Cirencester laid as an overlay on sound tarmac or concrete would typically come to about £3,300–£5,150. The same area with a dig-out and new permeable base would be nearer £5,550–£8,850.

Planning in Cirencester
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. If the weather turns on the day, we move the pour rather than risk a surface that will not cure.
