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 Ebbw Vale we look at three things: the base, the falls, and where water goes. Those decide the specification, and the specification decides the price. Ebbw Vale mixes older streets with newer estates, and many homes have room for two or more cars.
Projects we quote in and around Ebbw Vale include adding a channel drain where a drive falls towards the garage, building a fully permeable drive on a front garden and overlaying sound tarmac on a two-car drive. More about resin bound driveways.

Planning in Ebbw Vale
Wales has its own permitted development rules on the same principle: a front-garden hard surface should be porous or drain to a permeable area on the property. A fully permeable resin bound build, with a porous base under it, meets that test.
In Wales, new construction with drainage implications covering 100 m² or more can also need approval from the council's SuDS Approving Body (SAB). Most domestic drives are smaller than that, but larger drives and extensions are checked at survey.
General information for Wales, not legal advice.
Weather and working days
South Wales is wetter than most of England, so a permeable build or a planned route for water is essential on every drive. Spring to autumn offers the most laying days in Gwent, but dry, mild winter days can work too.
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.
